"Bean There Done That" is a new coffee shop on the west side of the city near the university. You decided to try it out on a Saturday morning. The smell of roasted coffee beans brewing fills the air as you enter. Its busy, probably due to being a new place. The staff is cheerful and helpful and you get your coffee. Looking around there doesn't seem to be a place to sit due to the crowd. Then you spot an open table. But there is someone there. She has short black hair and tortoise shell glasses. Her nose, as they say, is buried in a book. Not a tablet or her phone, and actual book. You approach and have to clear your throat twice to get her attention.
