Cup of Coffee for your thoughts?

Exciting news! We have a lovely new little coffee shop right here in Cumberland Gap! "Cups and Brushes" is the name, and coffee and art is their game. I'm currently sitting here drinking a delightful caramel/hazelnut frappechino like concoction. The shop itself is bright and cheery in the front, with it's butter yellow walls and big windows, but a little darker in the back for those of you who like to come brood over your cup of joe. Since I've been here 3 times in the last 3 days, I've heard two different sources of music; the girl playing guitar in the back, and classic oldies. It's all good to me! Also adding to the charm is the list of fun drink names, including "Scottish Fling, the Railsplitter, and what Fiance and I got yesterday- Southern Belle (mine!), and the Hillbilly (his!). The barristas are friendly, and make good suggestions if you aren't sure what you want. And, for these record breaking hot days you might want to try a milkshake or hand dipped ice cream! Or maybe even a push-pop, one of my favorite childhood ice cream memories. While you sip your latte/frappe/milkshake/whatever you heart desires, you can peruse the walls full of art, which includes adorable painted gourds! I highly reccomend popping down to Cups and Brushes. It's across from the convention center, where Webbs used to be, right here in our very own Cumberland Gap.
