Starbucks...what is that anyways? I've never known of a star to buck but I'm not a astronomer. I think its french for expensive, addicting, make you fat, delicious-ness
They've had me hooked for a while now. But I am glad that we don't have one in our small town, because if so the line would be 2 miles long and I would be broke. The closest one is about an hour from here, making it a special treat when we head to the "big city".
They now have THREE items that my grocery store carries that if you haven't tried out, you should. Just at your own risk...you have been warned.
Their #1 and one of my favorite new summer drinks is their Refreshers. According to the 12oz can it has "natural energy from green coffee extract" coffee and energy and natural. SOLD! Thankfully I had a FREE coupon for it so I got to try it for free, Wal Mart's price was $1.99. I tried the Strawberry Lemonade but they had an Orangey something or other as well
Number 2 Summer Favorite was an accidental discovery on a late night grocery store trip. Of course it was hot and I wanted ice cream after moving a bed across town. So I ventured to the store to see what my options were. I really wanted a Sonic Oreo Blast but didn't want to drive back across town to pay $3 for some ice cream I could only eat once. I was looking at the smaller sized ice creams, the traditional flavors, vanilla, chocolate, yaddy yaddy yaddy....then right there in the middle door was a glorious little white bucket with that famous weird green lady on it! STARBUCKS ICE CREAM!!!!
Of course they were having a sale if you bought two so I picked up the Caramel Macchiato and the Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappucino. They are both SO yummy!!
What the Insides Look like!! *I am not responsible
for your cravings during this post*
Adding one more box X: HOOKED!
My last Starbucks Addiction is their Cold Frappucino's. I love coffee but once July hits I am going to be so darn hot I can't stand it so HOT beverages probably won't be on my list to drink. I've tired all their flavors: Mocha, Dark Mocha, Vanilla, and now they have a low fat, low sugar, low cal version of the Mocha. I picked it up on accident because I had a $2 off 2 coupon and ended up loving it!! Only 100 calories per bottle.
Thanks Starbucks...just shut up and take my money.
