But even if it had been arduous I'd have done it anyway!<BR/>And yes, everybody did get their free Starbucks because I brewed and served coffee out the wazoo yesterday in my little sexy green apron. I am sorry to report that many people came in demanding "MY free coffee". I had a grand total of 3, count them three, lovely kind well-mannered people smile and tell me how much they appreciated it in the 9 hours that I worked. So thank you, Laurie dear, for saying thank you and you are very welcome. I will happily serve/craft beverages for you anytime.HelenaHandbaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02596066830499208800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19225146.post-25751848342511597862008-11-04T16:19:00.000-08:002008-11-04T16:19:00.000-08:00Two hours at Venice & La Brea - and nary a cut...Two hours at Venice & La Brea - and nary a cute cop in sight!!
