January 22, 2021 / 9:18am / Julie McClure If you are out and about today, it s a good day to swing by Espresso Royale on Neil, Oregon, or at Village Green, to get yourself some coffee or tea or a pastry, and toss a little extra in the tip jar. Today, 100 percent of tips will be donated to Courage Connection. You can also tip using a card. Today happens to be Chai Friday, if that s your kind of drink. They also have a list of very tasty mochas on their winter menu, including orange and clove, gingerbread white, peppermint bark, and spicy Mexican.
