But that wasn&#8217;t all he brought &#8212; he brought us his gracious heart.  There was a connection right away.  A few minutes later, he was back &#8212; asking if we needed anything else.  The next time around when Ein asked, I asked him if he&#8217;d take our photo (thus, the photo here).  &#8220;Great job, Ein!&#8221; &#8212; I responded.  And Ein&#8217;s reply back to me,  &#8220;Thank you, Cupcake!&#8221;  LOL!  Well, that caused Sheila and I to break into smiles that went from ear to ear.  I said, &#8220;I think that&#8217;s the first time I&#8217;ve been called Cupcake since Ron went to heaven!&#8221;  LOL!  Later when I got up to get a coffee refill, Ein saw me and grabbed my cup out of my hand and said, &#8220;I&#8217;ll get it for you!&#8221;  I replied &#8220;Thanks so much!  Be sure it&#8217;s the Hazelnut &#8212; it&#8217;s my favorite!&#8221;  He said, &#8220;Mine, too!&#8221;  Sheila and I continued our conversation, and way more than enough time to refill my drink, Ein returned with a big smile on his face, &#8220;Here&#8217;s you&#8217;re coffee!  You&#8217;re gonna&#8217; love it.  I fixed it up for you.  I added cinnamon and honey to it!&#8221;  LOL!  My first thought &#8212; &#8220;Oh no.  He&#8217;s destroyed my Hazelnut coffee and how can I possibly throw it out?&#8221;  But, it was delicious!  I&#8217;ll remember that next time.   Sheila and I were on the brink of outloud laughter when I asked &#8220;Ein, could I get a photo with you?  You are such a fine man and I&#8217;d like to remember you.&#8221;  Ein promptly sat down beside me in the booth, put his arm around me and said, &#8220;Sure, Sweetheart!&#8221;  And, gave the &#8220;heart&#8221; sign on his chest.  And to Sheila he said, &#8220;You&#8217;re Sugar!&#8221;  I said, &#8220;You&#8217;re a lady&#8217;s man, aren&#8217;t you?&#8221;  His response:  &#8220;Yes I am!&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Whoohoo!
