Update on Suspended Coffee in Colorado Springs - 4/8/2014

Hello again. Here is an update on Suspended Coffee in Colorado Springs.  As of last Sunday, April 6, it is up to $11.28 at Gold Hill Java Downtown.  Here's a picture of the sign on the front door.


Look for this sign at your local coffeehouse.  If your local coffeehouse doesn't have suspended coffee, tell them about it.

That's all for now.  I hope to be going to Denver soon to visit KareBear Bakery.  They are a supporter of Suspended coffee as well.  Take care and have a great day.

Coquette's Colorado Springs Is Now Open - 4/5/2014

Hello again.  Coquette's in Colorado Springs is now open.  It is a 100% Gluten Free restaurant and bakery.  I went there yesterday to see the inside.  It is wonderful.  They have a full bar towards the back of the restaurant.  They are open six days a week. They are closed on Mondays.  They are open for lunch/dinner Monday through Friday. Weekends, there is brunch and dinner.

Here's a picture of their sign that was outside.


I hope you stop by.  They are located on N. Tejon St. and Boulder.  I hear that they have truffle fries as well as sweet potato chipotle fries with a marshmallow sauce.  Both of them are worth the try.  Until we meet again, have a great day.

Official State Burritos - 4/3/2014

Hello again.  Since there is a burrito called a California burrito, I wonder if there are official state burritos.  I asked on Facebook and Twitter what would be the official state burrito for Hawaii.  One person commented, "Pineapple & Chicken". Another person said, "Shaved Ice".  Still another person said, "Pineapple, grilled Spam, Sour Cream & Cheese".  Grace Lee from Hawaii News Now said on Twitter, "Kalua Pork with cabbage and hot sauce".

What would your state's burrito be?  Please leave a comment or Tweet me @uniquelymike Take care and have a great day.

Eggo S'Mores Waffles & Dickey's BBQ Pit 2nd COS Location - 4/3/2014

Hello again. I found out that the second Colorado Springs, CO location of Dickey's BBQ Pit is now open.  It opened yesterday.  Today, they gave out their Big Yellow Cup of iced tea for free to the first 100 customers.  I was one of those 100 customers. I had some sweet tea in honor of Kirsten Horne from 7 News Now in Denver, CO.  I bought a Little Hoagie sandwich with sliced beef brisket with a side of baked potato casserole for lunch.  I dined in. After lunch, I treated myself to an ice cream cone that was free.

After that, I went to the Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market that was two doors down.  There, I bought a pack of Eggo S'Mores Waffles.  Here's a pic of the box.


It's a limited edition waffle.  I bought it in honor of Lisa Hidalgo from 7 News Now in Denver, CO. & her #SpottyShowers forecasts.

How come you see certain grocery items at Wal-Mart stores and not at the union grocery stores?  Time will tell.  I hope to see you on my next blog post.  Take care & have a great day.

Suspended Coffee In Colorado Springs - 3/30/2014

Hello again. Thank you for your viewership. My blog post on Suspended Coffee has gotten a good amount of views.  To continue with the theme of Suspended Coffee, I found a coffee shop in Colorado Springs, CO that has a Suspended Coffee program.  The coffee shop is called Gold Hill Java in the Downtown area.  It is located at 332 N. Tejon St. Their website is: http://www.goldhilljavadowntown.com/

I went there today for a cup of coffee and put some money into the Suspended Coffee program.  It's a running gift certificate.  As of 1 pm this afternoon, it's at $11.73  Why don't we double or triple it by the end of this week.  One of the baristas there told me that this has to be more publicized.  So, that's why I'm blogging about it.  If you owe someone, you pay it back. If you don't owe anyone, pay it forward.  There's no excuse for not changing a life today.

Please follow me on Twitter @uniquelymike and e-mail me at mikea1@earthlink.net  Take care and have a great day.

Mundo Fries At Mundo Las Vegas - 3/29/2014

Hello once again. This is the second blog post today.  My friends at Mundo: A Latin Chic Restaurant in Las Vegas, Nevada sent me a picture of their Mundo Fries.  What are Mundo Fries?  Mundo Fries are sweet potatoes plus Idaho potatoes with fresh ground ancho chile and cotija cheese.  Here is the picture that they sent me.


Doesn't that look good?  Mundo is located at 495 S. Grand Central Parkway Ste A-116 in Las Vegas, NV.  Make sure you stop by when you're in Las Vegas.

If you have ever tried these fries, please leave me a comment and tell me about them.  I'll see you on my next blog post.  Have a great day!
