One lump, or two?

My friend Humphrey thinks that you can tell a lot about a coffee shop from its sugar.

If the joint serves its sweetener in generic white-cane packets then it is a get-it-and-go type of place. If they are serving raw sugar they are a place concerned with health and naturalness. And if their sugar comes in glass jars that pour sweet white waterfalls into your rich dark lifeblood then you know that the place wants to form a lasting relationship with you. They want you to know that they trust you, so sit down and have a cup of joe at your leisure.

The love you give comes back in the end.
