Anyway, I had the cupid's tuxedo (raspberry black & white mocha: a February special), and even though the special menu is going to change tomorrow lol (March 1st) I'd say it's safe to say that the baristas here nail the proportion of flavorings with brew in general. Not overly syrupy; it was such a well-balanced drink taste-wise! As for treats, the orange tea cake was flavorful and tender! Recommend even if you're not abiding to a gluten-free or vegan diet. The pepperoni pizza pie could use some adjustments; very skimpy on the red sauce (had to take three bites in to notice that the hand pie wasn't just downright dry) but the red sauce was super delicious. Needs more of it! Friendly and chill baristas. Coffee shop is located in Downtown Roseville; street parking or could use the nearby parking garage.

Wide Open Walls Sacramento was born in 2018. It's always a pleasant surprise to be going about town and seeing masterpieces of art. It brightens up my day. Fun, colorful, and contemporary art. Free for all to enjoy. Brilliant! I don't know how they got organized with an annual festival and an official Board of Directors, but so glad they did. New artists are added annually. Website: wideopenwalls.com. On the website, you can filter by artist or neighborhood to view a virtual map of the murals . The 2020 festival is slated for September. The artwork are scattered about town (downtown/midtown, East Sacramento, Del Paso Heights, Arden, Curtis Park, Oak Park, CSU Sacramento). Each WOW mural has a plaque with the artist name, piece, and a smartphone scan box from which you can electronically download more info. A lot of these murals are accessible in downtown and midtown and are very Instagram worthy. So it would be a fun weekend activity to rent a Jump Bike or Scooter and explore the art and city. #wideopenwallssacramento #publicartmuralssacramento

Shoutout to Folsom, CA! Johnny Cash Trail…read more So you may be wondering... "what is the Johnny Cash Trail?". It's 2.75 miles of a class I paved bike and walking trail that is not a loop. It goes from Historic Folsom to the Folsom Lake Crossing Trail. Why is the trail named after Johnny Cash? Well he wrote and recorded the song "Folsom Prison Blues" in 1952. Yup, he was singing about the prison that the trail runs nearby. No, you can't see the prison yard. So don't think about planning any jail breaks. Anyways, I didn't start my walk at either the two end points. I started behind the Dan Russell rodeo arena which is behind the library parking lot. The arena has a parking lot as well with both free to park. I headed west towards Historic Folsom. There are marked trail signs. This section has a gradual decline/incline which may prove challenging for folks with mobility issues. The trail opens onto the sidewalk on Riley Street, look for Johnny Cash's guitar pick art sculpture. It's a 7 foot tall black bronze sculpture designed by local artist Adan Romo. A guitar pick is at both the beginning and end of the trail. The trail is shared by pedestrians and cyclists, so for goodness sakes follow the instructions on which side of the path you should be on. Plus please be especially vigilant on those hairpin turns and keep an eye on your kiddos and leashed pets. Thank you City of Folsom for creating and maintaining the trail, and adding more art installations.

Met some cool people along the way too -- the kind of trail conversations that make the miles feel lighter and the day feel brighter. Nothing forced, just good energy and easy connection. In all, it wasn't a bad walk at all... actually, it was the kind of hike that resets you. A little sweat, a little sunshine, a little unexpected community -- the perfect reminder of why Northern California always pulls me back in.

It's a risk to take unless you ask one of the many kind people around to watch your stuff. There are also study rooms for rent. I haven't used them, but I'm happy to have the option.
