What is a Barista?

Latte

The word barista is of Italian origin, and in Italian, a barista is a male or female "bartender", who typically works behind a counter, serving both hot drinks (such as espresso), and cold alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, not a coffee-maker specifically. wikipedia.com

cindylatteAh, Love is in the Air.  We have had another love connection and engagement at The Singin' Bean

Dear (Contact First Name), 

I'm dedicating the Song "Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop" by Landon Pigg to all the couples who have fallen in love at The Singin' Bean.  Click to hear your song Love Birds  

Eric Brown and Melody Brown who met through mutual friends of The Singin' Bean got engaged the last Saturday evening in August on The Singin' Bean Stage. Melody came to us through another customer and became our lifelong friend and what we affectionately call, "Our Regulars." Eric came to us through Mike and Teal  also both "regulars" as he and Teal had been friends for many years. Teal shot a few cupid arrows and the rest is history. Teal was pretty helpful with the proposal to, helping Eric pick out a song for them to sing and even yelling for Eric to get down on one knee right here on the Singin' Bean stage. (see the video on our FB fan page. Eric and Melody make the 5th couple to get engaged at The Singin' Bean.

The first couple was your's truly. Donnie and I celebrate our 5 year anniversary September 10th. He was my sign man, well, still is. In fact, he has been doing signs on the Lawrenceville Square for a long time. He is responsible for bringing our little Singin' Bean logo from paper to a bigger than  life outside signage. He became a loyal customer and a regular, coming up for lunches telling us funny stories, then a mutual friend (Pappy from Pappy's Peppers) pointed out to both of us that he saw something we didn't seem to see, and played a little cupid and magic.. Happy Anniversary Donnie, I love you.

Katie and Mike just got married in June after they got engaged in the middle of Sonny and Chers "I got your Babe". When the song came to, Will You wear my Ring? Mike romantically popped out a ring. Our eardrums will never be the same from the scream of surprise into the mic. 

Our own Barista Pamela just married her  childhood sweetheart,  Travis Howard in May and so many Singin' Bean friends were in attendance we closed up for the afternoon. Their wedding was held in our own Mike and Teal's backyard. Mike (Cowboy) Coker also did her ceremony. 

We have had two other grooms seek out The Singin' Bean stage to propose marriage. I created a karaoke screen saying "Courtney will you marry me" at the end of one beautiful serenade for her and just recently you can see pics of a couple who just showed up to propose. The Singin' Bean has a magical air and a family feel about it that makes people feel good about making memories there. I'm so proud to be a part of something that will be in people's memories as they raise their families and will be able to tell the story of how they met or got engaged at the eclectic little coffeehouse in Historic Lawrenceville. Check out our Facebook page and our website for pics and videos of these wonderful memories created at The Singin' Bean.

Love to all,
Cindy

Book of the Month 
Compound
"Eat Pray Love"
by Elizabeth Gilbert
 I was thrilled this month to see the movie version  of this book starring Actor Julia Roberts. It really is one of those movies that bring the book to life  on the big screen. I read this book a year ago and loved it.  Elizabeth Gilbert simply put tells her story.  From the depth of sadness to loss and guilt she give herself the gift of  a year to find herself and find happiness by visiting 3 I's  Italy -Eat, India- Pray and Indonisea- Love. Go see the movie with your girlfirends  like I did , but get the book it is worth your time .
 
Correct Singing Posture
The next time you watch a professional singer, observe the posture. Posture plays a large part in how well you sing. If you hunch over, your lungs can't inflate fully; and if you fidget, you distract your audience - and yourself. So use the following list to correctly position yourself for singing:
  • Feet are shoulder width apart, with one foot slightly in front of the other.
  • Knees are unlocked, with your weight on the balls of your feet.
  • Spine is long and straight, from bottom to top.
  • Head is centered over shoulders; chin is parallel with the ground.
  • Shoulders are back but down and released.
  • Arms are hanging at your side.
