And hello Frappucino!
That's right, our neighbor next door just moved out (Blimpies subs) and a Starbucks is moving in.
I have mixed feelings about it...I think I should just cut a hole in the wall so I can order coffees right from my cubicle???

Maybe they'll just fill your IV bag as it empties. Cheryl could prolly help with that--she did get an "A".

I'm accusing you of a gross misuse of Mr. 1.
Clearly, you don't concur 100% with Sahara's statement.
You're called out, son.

You? Fountain? Rando? I'm jealous.....
I love their Chai Frappacinos so much I've started making them myself since they are virtually fat free and I won't drink milk any other way.

Whatever the grocery store is selling. I like the liquid because I don't have to mix it with hot liquids like you do the powder.
The green tea chai is good, but not as sweet.
Lately I have found the Oregon brand Chai to be magnificent.

One word, baby: QUIZNO'S. num num nummy.
I hate Starbucks. I went there once and only once, and that was to avoid monsoon-like rain in Times Square a few years back and because The Paramedic made me go there (that freak loves Starbucks). Starbucks is to me as Wal-mart is to shelfie. Blech!

Their prices are ridiculous. If I'm gonna lay out that kind of cash, it'll be for gourmet beans for my own house. That's one of my many ironies: I hate to spend $3 on a coffee, but think nothing of dropping $7 for a good pint. Plus it scares me that Starbucks is everywhere. And Bucks County has better coffee, hands down.
They just opened a Quizno's on Moreland Road in Willow Grove. I stop there often on the way to school, but need to bring The Paramedic soon. They are FAN-freakin'-TASTIC.
