Expect the unexpected, follow the lovers lost in this blog.

A blog to cater your mind,body,and soul as you drink Turkish Coffee. We are proud to present our new storyline called Cafe's search for his "Zahir". Everyday is a new day for the "Cafe" (from Istanbul) & his journey for "Zahir" (from Baku). Don't expect extraordinary drama from the narrator, me. Still, this is a drama (maybe real!), and have better impact on you than watching a soap opera. Guaranteed. There is genuine feelings within inspirational periods. Cross your fingers for this story to end with happy marriage :-) All rights are reserved.

EDIT (01 July 2009) - She is engaged with another man, and I finally made my marriage proposal bringing my family to Baku. The result: She stays engaged and will have her wedding, so called "toy", with that another man.

Rest in peace Ms. Zahir.

July a Birthday month for Leo - No Smoking Marlboro, Philadelphia and Some Phila-Sophy.

July is the month for the zodiac sign Leo. A part of August is also included..
Who is Leo? Do you like people of Leo? Well, cafealaturca is Leo, and his birthday is counting.
Why am I telling you this?

What if all coffees have a birthday? They have an expiration date, so they should have a birthday. It is mostly called production date. Why? Produce, consume, produce, consume...
Likewise, be born, die, be born, die...

After reaping the fruit of cherry beans to have coffee out of it, the fruit is dead. But, we call it production date. So, there is some irony in the production of all those food and beverage we consume. To make the long story short, I am offering you a great deal today. No, I am not. But, do you know those people talk nonsense, and when you ask them what they are talking about, they reply, "I am trying to make a point!"

Yes! And, my point is about Leo. Before that, while searching for the image for coffee cherry, I found about La'o Hamutuk Bulletin, which talks about U.S. Government Assistance in Coffee Growing Country-East Timur.

I strongly recommend you to utilize the image search online. As I searched for a picture of zodiac sign Leo, I met this blogger. She hosted this nice Leo picture, thanks.

Did you know that some people choose certain fragrances because those ones match their zodiac sign? So, basically, they heavily rely on their zodiac sign. I neither favor that, nor am opposed to.

According to this picture, Leo is placed at 4 o'clock position.
Pisces is right across Leo, so do they match each other. Or, Cancer and Virgo are Leo's neighbors, does it mean they are friends all the time? By the way, I wonder if hiring managers consider your zodiac sign for the job qualification. Because, you are supposed to have some given traits with your sign.
Leo has,
Traditional Leo Traits

Generous and warmhearted
Creative and enthusiastic
Broad-minded and expansive
Faithful and loving


On the dark side....

Pompous and patronizing
Bossy and interfering
Dogmatic and intolerant

This topic of zodiac was very relevant to our discussions about Turkish coffee and fortune telling. All these stuff are superstitious, but we love them. We love to hear about ourselves from another person. Can't you tell about yourself, when you look at yourself in the mirror? Hmm, interesting. Don't we like to hear the truths about our live from another person, although we are already aware of these truths. For example, the cigarette package.

See, the warning sign is even bigger than the brand name and logo. Still, we smoke! There is a recording label called No Smoking. I love it. Both creative and informative for all those outgoing people enjoying the night dance clubs. I advocate dancing as opposed to smoking in the night clubs. By the way, Philly had finally banned smoking in the bars and restaurants. Two thumbs Up!!! And this no smoking sign below has a point to make.
As a result, see how far we ended up talking at this Saturday's cafealaturca post. There is always stuff to talk about, it is just a matter of time investment. I will be posting the times in the future, so it might give you an idea how much sweat went for each post. Thanks for your visit. Come again! And, enjoy drinking your Turkish coffee, or cafe alaturca.
