Mia Moss is the brains behind the beans at Black Coffee, a quaint coffee shop offering coffee, cappuccino, lattes, chai tea, and other seasonal drinks that rival anything you’ve ever had. The coffee aficionado-turned-entrepreneur opened her coffee shop near Texas Wesleyan to provide a quality cup of coffee and a place to gather and connect on Fort Worth’s East Side. Black Coffee offers specialized blends as well as all your coffee favorites. On a good day, you can even pair your latte with a freshly baked pastry from another Fort Worth favorite, FunkyTown Donuts.

In the era of COVID-19, it’s more important than ever to keep surfaces clean, especially when your house is on the market. We are keeping our surfaces clean, too, at McKnight Title. We are now offering a variety of closing options. You can opt for a traditional closing in our office, and we will social distance appropriately. We can also arrange for a mobile notary to close in your home, or even organize a closing over the Internet. We are even doing curbside closings so you don’t have to leave your car. We want you to be comfortable and relaxed during your transaction. Our experienced escrow officers are here every day to get the job done for you.

When life gives you a pandemic, make toilet paper cakes! Ever since culinary school, Tareka Lofton has been making lemonade out lemons and toilet paper cakes out of pandemics.

The cakes caught the eye of the local media and national media, and Lofton and her crew found themselves inundated with orders. More recently, Loft22 raised over $2000 for Black Lives Matter with the sale of special blackout cakes.
