update

Things can get pretty boring in Pembroke. It is a really small town that has a college in it. Other than that there has been little here. There are a few restaurants, all here because of the school, but little other than the standard fare – KFC, Burger King, Hardees, Pizza Hut, a Chinese place, Subway. Then we get the coffee shop and my whole take on the town changes.

Until recently I was never a big coffee fan. It took a few choice tastes of Starbucks ice cream to get me started a year ago or so, but I have finally arrived. I like coffee. I really like chocolatey coffee. But I am open to new flavors and kinds. I like the experimentation.

The new place in Pembroke, Carolina Coffee & Cream, opened the first day of classes this semester. Gray and I stopped in Friday afternoon for a quicl check out of the place. We’ve been back four times since. I’m also stoppingby on my way to 8AM classes this morning.
