The Hi Points from Hi Point Coffee 10/14/10

Hello, everyone! We've got lots going on this weekend so I'll keep my commentary short and focus on the good stuff. Events! Here's the run down... Open mic on Friday, live acoustic music on Saturday afternoon, Saturday evening poetry reading, Sunday harvest brunch and Sunday crafting. We also have some fun new things going on in the kitchen. Pumpkin muffins tomorrow, red velvet cupcakes and pumpkin scones today; who knows what'll happen next. :) Hope everyone is enjoying the week and I look forward to seeing you soon. Cheers! s Sunday Harvest Brunch Special Sunday 9am to 1pm Savory mini quiches with fried sage leaves and butternut squash Spiced pumpkin pancakes with maple-mustard glazed bacon strips Fresh apple and cheese tarts with homemade caramel sauce Served with your choice of juice, coffee or tea Saturday Live Music! 1:30-3:30pm Dave Eldridge is playing acoustic folk rock mix. Dave's always fun, so come check him out! Poet's in the Round Poets are invading Hi Point Coffee and Cafe tonight! We're staying up late to host Poet's in the Round 6pm - 7:30pm, hosted by the incomparable Ben Arnold. Come listen and interact with some of Reno's most talented wordsmiths! Sunday Craft Afternoon 2:30pm Pull out all those unfinished projects and come on in! I gotta get started on a new baby blanket for a friend, so it's time for knitting. Plus, isn't it supposed to be completely cold on Sunday? Come join us! Open Mic Night!! Open mic is tonight. Sign ups at 5:30, performances from 6-8pm. Please come join in or just listen in. Either way, we'd love to see you tonight! Book Club Selection The new book for this month follows the theme of food and Halloween. Go find a copy of Gil's All Fright Diner. Here's a little blurb from a review... "The story is simple: two kinda friends - one a vampire, one a werewolf - agree to help the owner of an all-night diner with her zombie problem. Yea, that sounds simple, but somehow Martinez has crammed more imagination, originality, action, smiles and endearing characters in 272 pages than most writers would in 10 books or their whole career. I am truly impressed." Sounds good, no?? Go get a copy, read it up and come join us later this month to discuss and laugh together!
