Coffee Designs

The little designs that the barista pours into a coffee cup are like the cherry on a hot fudge sundae.  I mean let's be a little honest, we eat with our eyes.  Which would you rather have, a plain cup of coffee or this one? 

I was waiting for my order at this cute little shop near our apartment and I couldn't help but snap a picture of this pretty design.  The barista gave me an odd look, probably because it wasn't my order, but her smile after I explained that it was really pretty to me was as pretty as the design she created.  It reminds me of a music class I took during my undergrad when the professor played a percussion piece that was beautiful.  After we listened to it, he explained that it was created by postal workers enjoying their job.  The ways in which we make our everyday life more beautiful or interesting are absolutely fascinating.
