Our focus is pastries and coffee, not tea. We will have tea, though, and it will be good tea. Kindra's been in communication with Matt, the owner of Townshend's Tea Company. His teas are fantastic and locally made (hardly a dozen blocks from our shop, actually). We will offer eight teas to begin with, but if we get mass requests for more, or different kinds, we will adjust that.
The loan is still in the works, but I have seen evidence (communications) of its forward progression. This is good. More evidence of successful certainty is that Shawna ordered a "Coming Soon" banner for the store front. That should get there in less than a week. Then everyone can drive by and say, "Hey, I know that place!"
Also, Marty, our fantastic chef wanted to be trendy and miles ahead of the curve, so he has looked into possible ways for us to offer our customers nutrition information on our products. His actions (and emails to the right people) has landed us the opportunity to be interviewed by the AP. The reporter wants to research eateries that offer nutrition information when they aren't required to by law. We need to get back ASAP about this lest the reporter dredge up another exciting start-up to question. Hopefully, though, national exposure will be ours.

That is great. I like the nutrition facts being posted,that will allow me to eat the pastries then know how many calories I have left for the rest of the day.
For teas - you should check into "Earl Grey de la Creme" or "Cream Earl Grey". Both are delish! The first has a carmel aroma, the latter a vanilla aroma added to the bergamont.
Following your progress with anticipation to Boring time and stopping by... ???
Kindra really like the Earl grey de la withchamagigee, but I'm not sure if it's on the list. If you warn us before your arrival we might be able to get it for you. ;) And I hope we are open by Boring. :(
