The Colorado Adventure

Magic!

Before we went to the Ann Lincoln magic show today we stopped by the SAME cafe to eat lunch. it’s here at: 2023 E. Colfax Avenue, Denver, CO. The cafe is called So All May Eat and it’s a wonderful concept. They have a new menu everyday using fresh foods from locals and organic food too. They usually have a soup, salad and pizza choice and it’s pay what you want. Yeah, you heard me, pay what you want or can. If you can’t pay at all, you can work in the kitchen for an hour to pay for your meal. If you can pay a dollar, then that’s what you pay for some awesome food and if you can pay more then you help out those that can’t pay much. We had tomato soup, puttanesca pizza, spinach pizza and watermelon salad (I would have never thought to combine watermelon, onion, carrots, olives and feta cheese, it was delicious!) We also had cupcakes and Oogave organic sodas (try the ginger ale, yum.) If I could have the pizza I’d eat there every day, they are open Tues-Sat (not the 4th of July though) from 11-2. I hope everyone goes and pays more than they can for their food, it is truly an amazing concept.

Next stop the central library. We saw Ann Lincoln do her circus magic show. She has trained a little puppy to do tricks (isn’t he cute?)

We got to pet him and the bunny at the end of the show. She is the one who got Joel interested in juggling and he read books and practiced and the next year he showed off what he had learned. We see her every year so she remembered us and asked how Joel was doing (he wasn’t there.) Still juggling and doing pretty well at it too. His flight instructor told him that juggling was good for his hand/eye coordination in flying – that was all the reason he needed to continue!

Now we’re back at home and we’re taking off in a bit to drop Joel at his gun safety class (turns out it was in the evening, not in the morning.)
