We've Got Soul

thanks to spotify we've been listening to hours of singles from the stax/volt collection circa 1959-1968 here at homer's. i'm convinced that you can't overdose on old memphis soul. the sounds of otis redding, booker t and the mg's, carla thomas, and many others are playing as i type this. we've got soul, yes we do... we've got soul, how about you?

Between Christmas and New Years

i got to work with kristen yesterday. it was a treat because she is on christmas break from UMKC. when i found her lunchbox the other day, i had to get a pic. it reminded me of my old 70s lunchbox.

Abstract Love

in addition to great coffee, and great music, homer's is becoming a haven for really cool art. if you love abstract work by jackson pollock or willem de kooning then check out the coffee & tea art by our own baristas: laura and hannah. best viewed while listening to guided by voices.

Caffeinated Holiday Art

Pets and Pet People

Look Like a Celeb @ Homer's

so laura posted this pic comparing one of our customers to the gambler himself, kenny rogers. whaddya think? could he keep ruby from taking her love to town? does he know when to hold 'em or when to fold 'em? would lucille pick a fine time to leave him? let us know and get double punches toward a free drink!
