Honestly, I Just Wanted a Latte! No Groceries Here!

L.A.'s supermarket strike lasted longer than most Hollywood marriages... but a settlement may finally be near, the L.A. Times reports.

On an entirely superficial level, that means Maria and I will soon be able to visit the Los Feliz location of The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf guilt-free.

That Coffee Bean location shares a parking lot with an Albertson's -- so every time we drive away, I feel the need to hold my coffee cup high, lest the picketers get the impression I actually shopped at the grocery store.

It's a very Larry David/"Curb Your Enthusiasm" moment.

Friday Update: Tentative agreement between stores and the grocery employees union has been reached; workers vote to approve new deal this weekend.
