Earth Day's Coming, and it's a great time to visit Sweetness 7 and Mum's and Daisey's


Earth Day is in two days so I thought that I'd share photos of some of the great places that practice planet friendly principles everyday.  The crew for UpFront TV decided to hold our weekly meeting at a coffeehouse on the westside called Sweetness 7.  As I walked down Grant Street I just had to take a picture of the store window for Mum's and Daisey's which did an amazing job of repurposing odd objects that sprinkle a bit of nature on an urban terrain.  It just so happens that the owner was on her way in and was nice enough to pose.  Yeah I'm nosey and yeah I took a picture... but  I did it all for you!

Once we sat down at the Sweetness 7cafe I discovered that brainstorming around interesting objects and knick-knacks really stimulates creative energies...we were all perked up like coffeemakers.  I love it when people think about alternative uses for buildings, acknowlege beauty in all of its forms and embrace reuse.  The owner of this coffee house is a hero in my book, and the coffee is excellent!  The last photo is of Executive Producer Mike Quinniey and me.
