OK, that's it. I'm hanging up my spatula. Tonight's dinner was entirely conceived of and executed by my barista, who, it turns out, also makes a mean black bean burger. And not only did he plan the whole thing out, he MADE IT UP. Just made up his own recipe. And I am so sorry to say that I ate my burger so fast that I didn't even remember to take a picture. But trust me, it was a thing of beauty.
