02.02.11 – My eye is drawn to Finnish franchises. Two of the shots are from popular franchises here in Helsinki. Picnic is a nice place for coffee and sandwiches. Wayne’s Coffee is a nice place for coffee and sandwiches. I need to look into these two companies. Who owns them? Why do they sell coffee and sandwiches? Why do I care?

wayne probably owns the one. as for the other, at least it isn’t owned by starbucks.
I guess Wayne’s is a Swedish owned chain and there is another chain called Robert’s which is a Finnish chain. No Starbucks in Finland. Not sure why.
much to Emma’s dismay!
Remember what happened in Paris when her frappicino didn’t taste like it does from America. That was one of those “end of my rope moments!”
Sure do. Moments like those make me thankful for never having teenagers : )
