It’s okay, moms. Your secret is safe with us. Happy Mother’s Day!
We’re celebrating the release of The Great Gatsby by pairing an elegant soft mauve with a deep red wine for a half-moon mani.
Happy national siblings day to the best ones I could ask for. @marranz @eddieg3455 @crazytrumpet #sharon #jennybug #earnestine #chris #family #nationalsiblingsday
We enter a little coffeehouse with a friend of mine and give our order. While we’re aproaching our table two people come in and they go to the counter:
‘Five coffees, please. Two of them for us and three suspended’ They pay for their order, take the two and leave.
I ask my friend: “What are those ‘suspended’ coffees?”
My friend: “Wait for it and you will see.”
Some more people enter. Two girls ask for one coffee each, pay and go. The next order was for seven coffees and it was made by three lawyers - three for them and four ‘suspended’. While I still wonder what’s the deal with those ‘suspended’ coffees I enjoy the sunny weather and the beautiful view towards the square infront of the café. Suddenly a man dressed in shabby clothes who looks like a beggar comes in throught the door and kindly asks
‘Do you have a suspended coffee ?’
It’s simple - people pay in advance for a coffee meant for someone who can not afford a warm bevarage. The tradition with the suspended coffees started in Naples, but it has spread all over the world and in some places you can order not only a suspended coffee, but also a sandwitch or a whole meal.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have such cafés or even grocery stores in every town where the less fortunate will find hope and support ? If you own a business why don’t you offer it to your clients… I am sure many of them will like it.

Lauren’s Daily Dishonesty typographic series celebrates those little lies we tell ourselves and others, with the complete understanding that we’re all bullshitting each other, but in accepting, we grant ourselves the right to get away with the same fabrications at a later time and date.
