Next Sunday, Virginia volunteered to not only lead a run to Duck Hollow, but to have coffee at her house after the run. Two thumbs up! Here are her directions:
Virginia's House: 1200 Lancaster Avenue, Regent Square. 15218
If coming from Squirrel Hill, head to Regent Square on Forbes, turn right on South Braddock and drive about 1/2 mile, thru the light and then just past the Square Cafe and turn right on Sanders (corner with McBrooms beer distributor, Typhoon and Vanilla Pastry). Go down four blocks toward Frick Park and you'll come to my house on the far left corner of Lancaster and Sanders.
Please stay for coffee, light pastries afterward.

This past Sunday, we started and finished at Staghorn Cafe in Greenfield. We first took the Greenfield Bridge to Schenley Park, looped through the trails in Panther Hollow, and climbed back up the giant hill to get coffee. We were quite impressed with this new place, more with the merchandise than with the pastries (nothing fresh on Sundays, but discounted day-old pastries). The place has an eclectic feel straight out of a Portlandia episode, complete with hilarious greeting cards, crocheted jellyfish (I kid you not!), Zeke's coffee, farmers market hand lotions, teas, etc. It's definitely worth a trip. Also, you can get Brunton Dairy glass milk jugs that you can bring back for refills! No endorsements of note, except for Cuba! (where Wendy recently made a trip!).
