Haolisha Bakery Tongling Tuesday Jan 20

OK, You can take the English teacher out of Seattle, but you can't take the coffee shop out of the English teacher.
Tongling is a city in China that still lacks a Starbucks, but it's not really a problem. Grading is mind-numbingly tedious on any continent, so the solution is to sit all afternoon listening to Chinese pop music over a 10 yuan cappuccino. Eventually the prices here will go up to the American prices charged in more Westernized cities like Shanghai. But right now, in January 2015, things haven't yet passed that tipping point.
