If you’ve ever fancied sipping a coffee with [the queen of tasteful living herself](http://time.com/4415265/martha-stewart-living-best-life/?iid=sr-link4), then the opening of Martha Stewart Cafés will be music to your ears. No, you won’t be able to settle in for an advice-filled chat with the [homemaking guru herself](http://time.com/4379009/martha-stewart-twitter-jonathan-cheban/?iid=sr-link5), but you _will_ be able to order a flaky pastry and latte from the minimalist Martha-branded, Martha-approved café counters slowly opening up across the country, now providing a sweet fix in New York City, Sacramento, and, soon, Dallas.

[_Eater_ reports](http://dallas.eater.com/2016/10/7/13196060/martha-stewart-cafe-opening-dallas-galleria-macys) that Macy’s in Dallas is fashioning its own counter like the recently opened Sacremento location. [The cafés serve coffee](http://www.marthastewartcafe.com/) (made from Martha’s favorite beans, ground fresh), pastries (selected from local bakeries that Martha has “hand-selected”), and tea (including Martha’s own breakfast blend).

This expansion comes hot on the heels of the launch of her [meal delivery service](https://marleyspoon.com/), Martha & Marley Spoon, and the imminent premiere of [her dinner party reality show co-hosted by Snoop Dogg](http://time.com/4517332/martha-stewart-snoop-dog-premiere-date/?iid=sr-link7). So yes, Martha is continuing on her steady march to world domination, one artisanal granola recipe at a time. It’s a good thing.
