Drinking coffee in a newsagent

This little funky coffee and newsagent business is located in Coolum on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland is my little Market
Friday post this week. Such fun.

The highly popular #marketFriday was created by the ever lovely @dswigle. If you haven't done this already, write a post to share and spend fun time exploring posts written by fellow Hive bloggers from all around the world. I guarantee you are sure to be entertained and even better connect with a fellow blogger or two.

Here is an inside peek of the tables and chairs in front of the coffee shop. Looking at the cards is an option while you sip coffee, maybe even reach for a card or two if allowed.

I found this clever business venture last year and got hooked with one delicious coffee. I love it when a business owner puts in a coffee shop. being a coffee lover I regularly treat myself to a coffee after shopping at the supermarket and butchers. The coffee beans are called Padre, roasted in Mexico and I guarantee they are delicious. I buy a kilo bag now and then to make a coffee at home.

Yesterday after a little bit of a shop it was a let's choose a comfy chair to sit, drink coffee and people watch. An apt time to play a guessing game emerged, I wonder how many people have chosen this delightfully sweet little pink chair besides me. Maybe more ladies have sat here than men. The big chair squeezed into a small space so close to the pink chair, only for a love I am willing to guess.

Packed in the top white shelves above art materials are the 500 grams and one kilo bags of Padre coffee beans. Here is a close up look.

The little dainty pink chair called me, it looked like it belonged in a lady's boudoir. So nice to stop.

The late was delivered to my table complete with a heart, so delicious and appreciated, I thoroughly enjoyed little restful watching people, all so worthwhile. I felt good.

I was not tempted to buy one of the novels on the book shelf so closely positioned to me in my little pink boudoir chair. Not my style of story but I understand why one would be tempted to start reading while drinking a coffee or two.

And all the while as I drank my coffee people came in to the counter of the newsagents. I am thinking scratches and gold lotto tickets were bought. So many so wishful and hopeful. I hope they get some money, a helping hand is always welcome at this time. Inflation is driving the cost of groceries, so expensive now.

These little shop ventures are such a treat when you have one in your backyard especially when the shop owners are so very welcoming and friendly.

I wish you all the best my fellow Market Friday bloggers.

I was tempted to buy one of these unicorn heat packs yesterday. I am a bit of a succour for unicorns and anyway it is sure to come in handy one of these days. Maybe, the next time I am in this newsagent I will buy one

Life is always highly interesting, we just need to roll with the punches in the most positive way positive.

It sure is @angiemitchell and I wouldn’t want it any other way… interesting is good.
Best thing we can do 😉😁💃🏻 Staying positive!

What a cute little corner this is! I love cafes, coffee shops, and little corners to drink my coffee and look at people! This was a real find and has so many little interesting things about it. I do love the shops with conversation corners scattered about, even better with a library table! I have been known to work from one. :)

It is a fun little place with its eclectic mix of merchandise that it seems to have. I can imagine myself sipping my cappuccino and playing that game! That is such a hoot! I have one of those microwavable animals, although mine is only a horse, not a unicorn. It has rice inside and works nicely as a heating pad.

Thanks so much for posting into #MarketFriday!
