Oregon Community Spotlight

I found a great little book store in downtown Hillsboro, Oregon called Arcade Book Exchange.

From their website:

The Arcade Book Exchange is a used bookstore that has been serving the needs of Washington County readers for over 43 years.  Our store is located in beautiful downtown Hillsboro, Oregon.  We are just one half block from Max Light Rail and right around the corner from the historic Washington County Courthouse.  

We carry a large selection of newer releases, novels, romance, mystery, horror, spy/adventure, sci-fi/fantasy, westerns, children/young adult, self-help, inspirational, historical, true crime, biographies, category romance, military and many other genres.

 We trade and sell primarily paperbacks but also have collectible and hardback books.  In addition, we have an inventory of selected books on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

I met Dianna thru a friend of mine (who happens to be her daughter! Hi Arica!) Several times I have been after a certain book and thought I would give local business a shot at it first and all times, Dianna exceeded my expectations on service! That's how you keep customers coming back!

Oregon Community Spotlight podcast Hillsboro, Oregon Coffee Shop Bella Sorelle Coffee in Hillsboro, Oregon This is Episode 1. Today, I got to chat with my favorite coffee place here in Hillsboro, Oregon - Bella Sorelle.  Bella is a small, family run coffee "hut" as I call these sort of shops. And, before I moved to the Pacific Northwest, I don't think I ever noticed this type of business. But now, for me - it's a necessity! The beverages they make are certainly important and I'll admit, who knows if I would have kept going back if they didn't do those well - but they make my most favorite drinks - so I've been going back for over 10 years now! The crew there is mostly family, as Nikki has said, and I'm willing to bet they have found a way to balance the demands of business with a family dynamic that many cannot make happen. For me, they have found a way to make ME feel like part of the family so - beyond the coffee being great - they have my vote to keep coming back for their beverages. My Family's Favorite Drinks -  Me: Hot (drinkable) Large Americano, Heavy Cream, Sugar Free Hazelnut & Sugar Free Vanilla My Wife: Hot Large Coffee with Extra Heavy Cream in winter and Large Cold Brew with Extra Heavy Cream in Summer Teenager: Large Blended Caramel Macchiato Little Kiddos: Root Beer Italian Sodas with lots of Whipped Cream  Find Bella Sorelle Coffee here on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Bella-sorelle-302107533149710/reviews/?ref=page_internal Find Bella Sorelle Coffee here on Google maps: https://goo.gl/maps/xBgxHGoro19zX2478
