So I made the daily trip to Starbucks for my refill. I walk in, and since there isn’t anything resembling a line, and belly up to the counter. Since I have my cup there with the lid off they naturally assume I’m there for my free coffee refill.
Then there’s the new guy. [...]

When I’m out on the weekend bouncing from coffee joint to coffee joint, you can usually bet I’ll hit either the Cherry Street Coffee in Downtown or Belltown. Who knows, sometimes I get a little crazy and hit both. I really enjoy both locations. The people that work there are really cool [...]

I had the opportunity to enjoy a cup of coffee today at Uptown Espresso with a good friend. I’m not sure what today’s blend was, but it sure was tasty. And that’s all I have to say about that.

So, I made a second coffee run and was clued in a little more on how things work at good ol’ Starbucks. Apparently, if you bring your already used coffee cup back and get a refill, it only costs 55 cents! Where was I when this glorious tidbit of news came out?
Now my [...]

So in an earlier post, I had stated that I would most likely only get the new Breakfast Blend on a Tuesday thru Thursday scenario. Well, today is Friday and this Breakfast Blend is tasting mighty fine. Almost as fine as yesterday’s cup.

See, I ‘ve been busting my butt trying to get below 200lbs for the past few months. To my credit, I’m at about 210lbs and started at 241lbs. What’s difficult is my morning coffee run across the street and not only do I stand there and imagine how a hot and toasty Starbucks [...]

What can I say. If you’ve read anything else on this blog, you know that I enjoy my Starbucks coffee. I like the strong flavor.
This new “everyday blend” is surprisingly good. It is very smooth.
The bottom line: Would I order it everyday? I would most likely order it on a Tuesday, Wenesday, or on a [...]
