Monday Link Round-Up

Posted on May. 03, 2010 by Uncommon Grounds in Monday Links

Each Monday we pull together links from around the internet that we find to be fun, worthwhile visits. We’d love to hear what you think in the comments below. Please enjoy!

COFFEE LINKS:

Ever wonder why the word “macchiato” means different drinks in different places? Slashfood has your answer with a great article on the macchiato. (FYI – Uncommon Grounds serves the “traditional” macchiato by default, but we will be glad to make any version of the drink you’d like!)

The world says goodbye to Leslie Buck, the designer of the classic NYC cardboard coffee cup. Read the New York Times obituary.

LOCAL LINKS:

A big congratulations to our neighbors on Broadway, Circus Café for celebrating their sixth year in business! We are happy to fuel many a cleverly-shirted bartender/waitress/host/hostess with coffee before or during their shifts.

Saratoga Seen has the scoop on all the events happening as a part of this week’s “Pet Appreciation Week” in Saratoga Springs.

Flickr user DeeBeePhotography has some incredible pictures of the tulips in Washington Park in Albany. Wow!

VIDEO OF THE WEEK:


Apparently, a Storm Trooper will do anything to get coffee…
