Coffee & Reading the morning paper
Happy Thanksgiving to those of you that are celebrating. We’re sending out this newsletter today to wish everyone all the best and to provide some ideas for tomorrow’s online Black Friday sales. (Some have already started!) If you’re eager for shopping tips, keep scrolling.
- Local/DC: Did you know that local RĀKO Coffee Roasters will be at the Downtown Holiday Market!? Offering gift boxes, mugs, brewing equipment & coffee beans to-go. Booth #1, “7 days a week, 12pm-8pm through Dec. 23rd.”
- Interested in learning food photography? So are we. Check out these free tips.
- {From Last Week}: Make sure you check out the National Archives event: Tour a Chocolate Factory (!) this Dec 10th. Register here for free, or opt-in for a tasting kit. {Not sponsored, we just think it sounds fun.}
- Trending article this week: How chocolate is made!
- Holiday Fun Recipe: Are you a pumpkin pie fanatic? Apple pie? Just take a look at this gorgeous chocolate chess pie! (Side bar: Speaking of chess, have you been watching The Queen’s Gambit on Netflix?)
Quote for the weekend

Some chocolate dessert & Holiday Shopping special edition
- For the Home/Chocolate and Coffee Kitchen: Light one of these glass votive candles to set the holiday tone. Apple spice or warm sugar fig? Then, wear some of the most unique slippers that we’ve ever seen and serve coffee to your loved ones in these made-to-order cups. We also like the style of these mugs. The site also has plenty of other gorgeous items, including throw blankets, jewelry and more. For everyone on your list, including pets.
- For the Chocolate Purists/Globe Trotters/Adventurists: Literally any of these cocoa gift options from Bar & Cocoa may tempt you. We love the special edition bars and seasonal winter tins 🙂 The site has deals “every day this week”/over Black Friday weekend, online and through their newsletter. The site has a wonderful chocolate bar selection from chocolate makers around the world.
- For the Chocolate Creatives/Meditators/Dreamers: We truly are awe-inspired by the Vosges “Haut-Chocolat” brand. Just luck at their gorgeous product images (see below). I mean, wow. Boxes filled with bonbons, unique chocolate bars, and much more awaits you.
- For the Coffee Shop Frequenter: Pre-order these joggers which ship end of November for the coffee-drinking athlete in your life. If you’re able to quarantine, test and see family safely in the coming weeks, why not order this skirt for NYE? Need something “extra” for Zoom, instead? Try this dress with the unique neckline.
Have a lovely Thanksgiving (if you are celebrating), nice weekend and enjoy these sales!
