Stonewood Cafe grand reopening in Broken Arrow

As regular readers will attest, I like coffee almost as much as I like coffeehouses, and I keep my eyes out for locally-owned coffeehouses everywhere I go. When I'm in BA and in need of some good coffee and a place to do some work over a breakfast sandwich, I...

Des Moines farmers' market
