Stupid Coffee Creamer

[disneymama73]

Enjoy that Starbucks! There is one in the plaza where I work. Too easy to stop. I had a cinnamon dolce yesterday, a pep mocha a few days before that. Yum. I am creating Starbucks coffee hounds, too. Ds loves the pep mocha, but of course I make him order a mint hot choc. He is only 7!

That's funny, Tracy! Madeline is an addict, too. Only she drinks hot chocolate soy milk. Julia gets a chocolate chocolate chip Frapp. No coffee.

I do save him one sip. He also loves the gas station pumpkin spice cap. I know. The shame of gas station coffee. It is one dollar, though!

Madeline and Julia love to steal my coffee. I'll look down and ...... Where's my coffee?

Ohh which gas station? $1.00 and it's good? That's a deal!

Here are a couple pics of Madeline my little Starbucks addict. She actually cried herself to sleep one day screaming, "I want Starbucks!!!!!" She's 3.

Psssst..... peppermint mochas are really at Starbucks year 'round, but don't tell! They remove them from the menu boards after the holidays (and don't always use the red sprinkles) but the peppermint syrup is there all the time now.

Aww! Where's the orange covering from a pumpkin cookie? She looks even cuter with that!

TRUE! I wish I had gotten a pic of that! I can't believe that was a year ago.

Okay, you are aiding my dependency!

Does dinner look like this?

I'm planning a Starbucks trip right now.... Surely there's some reason I need to get out of the house.

I can just imagine being fast asleep and hearing "SSCCCCWWWWHHHH!"

Um. Supper!!!!

There really just is no way to disguise the "SSSSSCCCCCWWWWWWHHH" sound.

The dog even comes running.

Yum!

I'm going to order one of those white chocolate peppermint mochas!!

I drink chocolate truffle coffee (or Chocolate velvet) and use Vanilla caramel creamer. It is the BEST part of my day!

Taz, if I could send you some Mayfield Snow Cream I would! it DOES taste like the real thing. Mayfield is made right down the road!

Folger's Gourmet in the Gold/Tan package has chocolate truffle.
Millstone has Chocolate Velvet.

I also use 3 packets of splenda (yikes!) But only one cup a day--no more.

Both are yummy with Vanilla caramel creamer. For a bigger treat, a little whipped cream and some chocolate drizzled on top and caramel drizzled on top. Then it is like dessert!

Oh Mama! No sprinkles??? What the heck??? Are they cutting costs or something? Throw some dad-gum sprinkles our way, would ya, Starbucks???
It's all about the little things...

Early this AM, DH says to me, all sexy-like, "Whatcha' thinkin' about?" Because I was looking dreamily outside. I said "Do you really want to know?" He said "Yes", like I had been pondering one of life's mysteries...

So I said "I'm thinking about that Starbucks coffee I had for lunch yesterday."
Probably not answer he was expecting to hear!

,<--- This is our coffee smilie! Who Knew????

Where are my keys....... Must go get coffee now.

As for the whipped cream...it has to be Redi-whip or it's equivalent, just so you can let everyone in the house know that yes, you ARE having whipped cream at 5 AM, and you dare anyone to say anything to ya! "SSSCCCHHHWWWWW"

My DH works nights and comes home every other day. He will usually bring me home a latte (usually from Dunkin' Donuts, but you will not see me complaining... ). I reeeeally need one right now.

Now tell me, Jo. Is the Redi-whip fat-free or the good fat-full version?

Girl, hips don't lie...



I've never met a Dunknin' donuts coffee I didn't like either...

Just give it to me. I don't care.
Now, that 7-Eleven on the corner? I could probably do without that coffee, but you, know, it just ain't the same without the whipped cream.
Full fat, low fat, reduced fat, no fat... it's all good.
