Cafe Tables
Desire/Acquire: Cafe Tables
As I think about warmer weather and less rainy skies, I'm excited to spend more time outside at a sidewalk cafe. However, it's sometimes hard to get to a cafe to lounge at one of their outdoor tables, so I'm hoping to get one for my own house. I adore this Pensi Cafe Table (shown here), but at $692, it's a little out of my budget.

Do Tell: What Was the Worst Pickup Line You Ever Got?
Our friends at Em & Lo have listed the 10 rules of the pickup, some for men ("Never look someone in the boobs while talking"), but some which are addressed equally to women ("Do not wordlessly dry-hump a stranger from behind on the dance floor"). Damn! There goes my main move.
Awkward! Straight Stacy Asked on a Friend-Date
So my friend, let's call her Stacy, was dating this guy that she was really into. After five dates (who's counting) he does the disappearing act. A few months go by, and Stacy runs into the disappearing dude at her local cafe .
Do Tell: Ladies Who Lunch, Kitties Who Brunch?
On my way to grab some bagels over the weekend, I passed by a popular cafe, typically featuring lines out the door and full sidewalk tables every sunny afternoon. In addition to the eight dogs (not that I was counting), I also spotted a gray cat on a harness and leash! My friend and I were shocked 'cause, not only was this kitty just relaxing calmly, there were tons of dogs, people and noises sure to spook most felines I know.
You Asked: Does He Just Want a Friendship?
Dear Sugar,
I met this guy in college and developed a major crush on him, but nothing ever happened. After graduating we kept in contact via email, then after a couple months, we met for coffee. We got to talking and he told me that he's been attracted to me for some time now, but informed me that he was in a relationship with someone else.

Crave Worthy: Time Occasional Table
Designed by Prospero Rasulo in 2006, the Time Occasional Table ($1459) comes in a variety of glossy lacquer finishes, but I'm partial to this candy apple red shade. I'd love to see these flanked by black chairs in front of some gorgeously designed Parisian cafe. There's just something so compellingly cinematic about this table's eye-catching ruby shade and elegant, willowy stem.
What's It Worth To You?
Every so often a new trend will pop up in the restaurant game. In both Salt Lake City and in Denver the new trend is "pay-as-you-can." Yep that's right.
