Grounds for Conversation

Usually,'Overheard at the Bistro' covers the latest food news, cooking tips and other interesting culinary ideas. But here's some news that highlights not the bistro but the coffee shop. Sociology Professor Ray Oldenburg,Ph.D., professor of Sociology at the University of West Florida in Pensacola, found that the coffee house is actually good for your health. The cafe, he says, is the new favorite after-work hangout, replacing the soda fountain of years ago - the place to go where you know people and feel comfortable. It seems coffee bars are havens for conversation and communication, whether it takes place between strangers, family, or friends. A cup of tea, a latté, or a cup of coffee can be an antidote to loneliness. Meanwhile, we hope our 'EasyCooking' meeting place offers you some good topics of conversation among your own friends and family — maybe you will even meet a new friend or two through our site.
