Tilda's sister-in-law reports that her coffeemaker, though only four months old, is defective: instead of dripping the brew into the carafe, it goes all over the countertop. Morning coffee is vital to both her and her husband, so on Sunday she asked him if he wanted her to go out and get two cups.
No, he said, what he wanted was a full pot.
Being a resourceful woman, she took the carafe to Mushrooms Cafe, the new place at Hickory Hill Road and Route 1 (where the White Barn was years ago), and explained the situation. The owner very kindly brewed an entire pot using her carafe, much to the amusement of the people having breakfast there.
So my sis-in-law left with a pot of coffee, which was still hot by the time she got home, and also some gazpacho.
I stopped by for coffee and an "everything" bagel the other morning and found Mushrooms to be a delightful place for breakfast or lunch, with lovely farmhouse-style tables and lots of country antiques for sale. They sell fresh mushrooms and also make their own mushroom soup, which a member of a mushroom-growing family tells me is very good. And there's Wifi!
