Complicated

Now I know why Starbucks coffee costs so much. This morning a lady beside me ordered a "grande extra shot pumpkin spice soy latte with an extra pump of flavour no whip." I laughed. She glared. I said, "Sorry."

I also couldn't resist buying a new mug. I have a weakness for large Starbucks mugs, even though I prefer Tim Horton's coffee. Usually. Today, I suppose because it's the second weekend I have worked right through, I had a craving for STRONG coffee. Mmmm.

Nice mug - and it's always okay to have a quick chuckle at pretentiousness, especially at Starbucks :)

At Starbucks there are more than 50,000 possible combinations for your morning fix. I don't know how the barristas do it - sometimes it gets pretty crazy!

Mine's a triple grande vanilla latte, extra hot, no foam - so I guess I can't complain (and yes, I do feel a little pretentious ordering it, too!)

Choosers can't be beggars, when it comes to great coffee, trust me on that one
