Cafe Au Lait and such

Have you started to develop a need for coffee and sophisticated European drinks now that you're riding a scooter?

The main reason I got mine was because in three trips to Europe in the past four years I fell in love with the scooter imagery and community.

These were trips to Paris mostly. And now I'm prone to scooting down to Starbucks and gazing out the window at Velveeta whilst I sip on my Macchiatto or my Cafe Au Lait.

Should I get therapy or just a well-constructed travel mug so I can put on airs all over the place?

That will pretty much negate any gas savings, right there. : )

Not saying it makes sense, but if scooting is a lifestyle then it seems only right to extend it to all the finer things in life we can enjoy.

Also, there are now a bunch of scooter shops (javaspeed in RI for one) that offer a whole coffee bar in the shop. It's the coolest.

I've always thought it would be the bomb to have a coffeshop attached to the scooter shop with plenty of parking so it could be used as a launching/landing pad for rides.
It seems most scooterists enjoy their coffee.

That is one of the food items I miss the most from Spain . . . good coffee at a decent price and Jamon Serrano ! Yum ! :D
Beer is the answer . . . what was the question?

Velveeta is currently the name of my Buddy.

It's orange and ties in perfectly with one of my blogs - http://www.bowlofcheese.com - so it's only natural that I'd stare at her.

Mmmmmmmmm, cheese.

You may have to rename your scoot. Not many French cheeses are that color though.

My public library has a Starbucks inside.

I can see getting all wrapped up in this lifestyle...I can see it now:

Protesters saying it's a choice, not genetics...

:D

Maybe it should be Orange Chevre. But that's two words. I could go with Humbolt Fog, but that's not orange.

Velveeta is really the only thing that color...in the cheese family.

I guess I could go back to Clementine, but that's TOO cheesy. :-)

It will stay Velveeta until I discover a new French Cheese in the gorgeous orange color.

Why do you all seem to be under the impression that Buddies have anything to do with Europe? They're not even particularly popular there, I bet they sell more here. I know Genuine encourages it, but embrace Chinese Taipei already. You don't have to lie to yourselves! : )

We should all be rocking ROC flag patches and stickers. I just ordered some. It's actually a much cooler flag than Italy, France, OR Spain! ROC pride!

Nothing is cooler than a Bajaj with a Ganesh sticker and a batik seatcover. Hoodibaba!

I'm the first person to give General Gao his due, but I'm of the belief that my Euro-style Buddy has some chromosomes that are distinctly Parisian.

And even if Velveeta is a native of the land of the rice paddy, I think she would rather flit about the fashionable streets of gay Paris.

I'm secure in my masculinity. Just ask my girlfriend who continues to giggle at the fact I got an orange scooter.

I expected you to say something along these lines. :)

Maybe everyone should go out and get ROC team soccer jerseys or something of the like.

C'mon, our flag is pretty darn cool and our food the best in the world.
Plus we beat the crap out of the Dutch and Russians in soccer. :D

Great sticker. Which reminds me that I have a brand new sticker on the way.

Promise not to overshare it...

It says:

Red Meat Isn't Bad For You
Green Hairy Meat is Bad For You

Going down with something in my pocket that may shoot me is not in my wardrobe planning. . .however, the Buddy's front holder can be arranged to hold an easily accessible firearm if necessary. :wink: Now to figure out how to maneuver things so that the dang gloves aren't an obstacle. . .

But is it an orange cheese? If I'm just going to name her a random cheese name, I might just go with Chevre or Humbolt or Cheddar or any number of cheese varieties and tastes that I enjoy.

Crottin de Chavignol
Lyonnais
Valencay
Figue

and more. Actually, the Figue might be good for a name as it has lemon flavors and the color could tend toward more yellow/orange, but I'm not positive.

NOT naming Velveeta "whiz" though. Sounds too much like pee.
That didn't stop Kraft!

EP:

No offense to the Spanish flag, which is obviously more distinctive than Italy or France's flags, but the ROC flag meets the highest standard of flag design: it's easy for a kid to draw (or to have made with laser-cut vinyl, without being boring. The coat of arms is too complicated. : )

Fromage could work.

I already own www.boldefromage.com (sister site to bowlofcheese.com) so I guess I could go in that direction.

Let me ponder it.

I did see not see one Buddy, darn it-and I was looking hard. As I mentioned in another post, there were some no names/unbadged scooters, and lots of Kymcos with weird names like "dink" and some vespas also with other names. I saw a PGO max and some Syms. Spain looks like the best place so far to scoot...tapas, scooters, cafes, some sanity in road rules

Okaaaayyy... lots of stuff going on here...

Can't drink caffeine because my hands cramp into fists of pain, so no coffee for me. Occasionally I will make up a decaf mocha icecream shake. 8)

As for putting Taiwan flags on your scooter, that's all gravy if you like it. I was considering doing my Italia all *Krispy Kreme* style, since it is green, white, & red... Yeah, I know my scooter wasn't made by Krispy Kreme, but who cares who makes it, it's what I like.

Also, hate to break it to you but:

*GERMANY **
VILL KRUSH *
*DER UDER **
*FUSSBALL **
*TEAMS!!!**

dude, they ARE scooter friendly! there was a scooter ride where we went up there one saturday for ride-n-lunch-n-ride. (I missed it - work - but rumor is that it was awesome, as was the ride.) Some people have made it a semi regular place to stop for breakfast when scootering.

dunno about marketing jobs...you considering moving back?

NEW NAME ALERT

Post by sotied »

Yup. Just now I pulled the trigger on a new name for my scoot.

It's NOT Fromage....although I was taken by that.

Nope, it's now.........

Croque Madame

The reasons for this are myriad, including the European emphasis, the inclusion of cheese and eggs and the feminine nature of the vessel (ships and cars and spaceships are named in the feminine so why stop at scoots?).

So please join me in saying hello to Croque Madame.

Thank you. Thank you all. Please hold your applause. I'll be here all week.

Ha, no, not seriously. There was a time when the wife & I discussed moving back in a few years, once we got tired of busting our asses to live in SoCal. Maybe if the right ridiculously high paying job came along...

Don't forget that the cost of living is so much lower, that a similarly paying job would seem like a big raise. :)

but, for real, I totally get it. CA is nice. We'd prolly move there if we could afford it without me having to get a full time job. I like being a part-timer.

She's got a new name... Croque Madame.

It's a grilled cheese sandwich enrobed in cheese with an egg (me) on top.

Got the cheese part, the deliciousness part, the European part and the egg part.
