Our Rao’s bakery, just 2 miles from the house, will be opening in February.  Rao’s is a locally owned coffee shop that is alot better than Starbucks. (Sorry to all of you Starbucks fans.)

People swear by Starbucks coffee but I have never aquired a taste for their coffee.  On the other hand, Rao’s has a good blend of coffee as well as a good deal of specialty coffees.  My favorite is their house blend with Splenda and powdered creamer.  Sonya loves their Sugar-free Hazelnut Kona Mocha Frozen Coffee.  Josh likes their Sugar-free Carmello Frozen Coffee drink.  He really doesn’t like sugar free but it is all we will let him get.  Hannah is not allowed to drink coffee yet.  We told her not until she is two.

All in all, Rao’s beats Starbucks.  Coffee is God’s great creation, it has the smell of Heaven. 

If you are wondering, their Mid-County location is in the Old Novrosky’s across from Central Mall on HWY 365.  ENJOY!
