On a cloudy afternoon, in a crowded Starbucks, Elizabeth Conner walks in and ordered a peppermint mocha with coconut milk, her favorite drink. It also happens to be my favorite drink as well. After ordering our drinks we finally sat down at a table. Elizabeth is one of my smartest friends, not just book smart but she has been all around the world and learned so many things from those experiences.
