I went to bed and woke up in the middle of the night. I felt like I&#8217;d slept forever and I was completely awake so I felt sure it was 5 AM. However, it was only slightly after midnight when I looked at the clock. Ended up staying awake and not falling back to sleep until a half past three. Naturally, I was exhausted when I woke up the next morning. <\/p>\n<p>I got to the office around 7:30 AM and then decided and I needed to find some coffee, stat. I recalled walking past a Starbucks last week when we walked to lunch so I went looking for it. When I walked out of the building, I noticed Kaldi&#8217;s across the street. I did find Starbucks, which was to my left. I was faced with the decision of crossing 12th Street to go to Starbucks or crossing Main Street to go to Kaldi&#8217;s. The novelty of a coffee shop that I&#8217;ve never tried before ultimately won. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/29029065763\/in\/datetaken-public\/\"  title=\"Untitled\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/c4.staticflickr.com\/8\/7771\/29029065763_71d6fda014.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"Untitled\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Kaldi&#8217;s has super cute d\u00e9cor inside.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/29618227946\/in\/datetaken-public\/\"  title=\"Untitled\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/c3.staticflickr.com\/9\/8004\/29618227946_4b272bb287.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"Untitled\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I love this cozy corner nook with a really hip light fixture above it.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/ching\/29542585202\/in\/datetaken-public\/\"  title=\"Untitled\"><img src=\"https:\/\/c3.staticflickr.com\/9\/8381\/29542585202_fee2ec1db6_c.jpg\" width=\"500\" alt=\"Untitled\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>They made me the most delicious mocha, complete with coffee foam art. I&#8217;m not much of a coffee drinker but I thoroughly enjoyed my mocha yesterday. So much so that when Kelsey asked if I wanted to go get coffee with her, I didn&#8217;t need much coaxing. I couldn&#8217;t wait to return. <\/p>\n<p>The mocha I had today was even better than yesterday. I think it&#8217;s because I asked for whipped cream. I can totally see myself getting addicted to this place, specially since it&#8217;s conveniently located across from the office. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not going to lie. As much as I hate being away from my babies and as much as I hate driving, I love working in Kansas City because EVERYTHING is within walking distance. If we lived in Kansas City&#8217;s downtown loop, I could walk to work and everywhere else and life would be just dandy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I found a new coffee shop across the from the office the other day; completely by accident.
