Iced Vanilla Latte

Iced vanilla latte. Forgot to ask for decaf. It’s 3 pm. Will I sleep tonight? Listening to Si vous voulez by Chris LeBlanc (Lisa de Andrade vocals), on endless single-song repeat.

Because I’m a zombie. Vertical, moving, but no brains.

The neighborhood coffee joint.

Americano

Americano, with their signature candy heart on the side. Plus a croissant. Because it’s the Union Street French Cafe. Time for Claude to walk me through the weekly sweep.

Weekly review at Criterion Coffee. Me and Claude Code. It’s a good place to grab a table and do some work—especially upstairs in the mezzanine.

Spanish Latte

At Urth. The peacock!

Americano

Small. Because a large has 4 shots of espresso and that’s too much for after lunch. 😁

Coffee and Plants in One Colorado, Old Town Pasadena, tucked way in the back. No real milk! Only plants. Drink ranked lower for oat milk, otherwise fine.

Drip Coffee

Little place out of the way. Tables inside and out.

Leveling up from Claude Code + Obsidian to running Hermes on a VPS. Objective: persistent NOW.md self-updating, self-learning status across all devices. At Union Street French Cafe. Americano and a croissant.

And now for something completely different: fresh squeezed orange juice. With real oranges. Can I give more stars than five stars?

Besitos Latte (Aka Horchata)

Down the alley to Savvvy’s.

Continuing the theme of hot, black, and unsweetened, an Americano after lunch to get my brain in gear.

Coffee

Coffee comes with the lunch special, and I got the breakfast burrito for lunch.

They pimp it heavily so I had to try it. Old Town Pasadena. Too sweet.
