Coffeehouse drawing - it's not always modern folk hunched over their computers and mobile phones. This tumbled mass of fabric is actually a utility shoulder bag casually placed there by a coffee-drinking friend. The big cup in the front is my drink, a "turmeric ginger cappuccino," something that the Capuchin monks of old would hardly conceive of. I don't know whether Capuchin monks still exist, but if they do we owe them thanks for their gift of milky coffee.
The Capuchin religious order still exists. They are friars, not monks, leading lives of prayer and service.
