Entitled Sunbather

[pzychobitch]

Am I going to be ostracized for saying I've never had one of these salted caramel frappes?

No you're not. I've never had one either!

[Lovecats]

My daughter sent me a Starbucks gift card just because. I had never had the Pumpkin Spice before but tried it last night. It's so good! I have a new favorite coffee now.

[Irving Patrick Freleigh]

I've been spending a few dollars at Starbucks lately.

Because Pumpkin Spice Latte Season.

Also Lemon pound cake. Whenever I can find it.

[fma_fanatic]

Hehe, I only ask because I've said that I've never had something or never eaten anywhere and people look at me as if I'm insane.

Many years ago, when I was first dating DaDairyDruid, we went to visit his family and I made the statement that I'd never been to a Cracker Barrel. The look I got from his sisters was priceless.

Or would that require a rewrite of the wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle line in "Sexy And I Know It" to: dribble dribble dribble dribble

Nah, that's for the infant version of that one.

I also don't have any Starbucks this time of year.

But then again, we don't have any in Adelaide anymore

(We also do not have Krispy Kreme, but people often bring it in from interstate. It's a running joke that one of my states major imports is Krispy Kreme)

I can't stand coffee in any form

I realize this is more or less blasphemy for someone from the Big Easy ^_^;> but I agree (tho I do love the aroma)...That's almost as bad as being a teetotaller here, it draws odd looks more often than not.

[mharbourgirl]

Oh man, pumpkin anything, yeah, I am so there.

I'm just waiting for Tim's to bring back those insane Maple Shortbread cookies they had last holiday season. I have NEVER had shortbread cookies that good, with all the melty maple sugar nuggets and even more melty shortbread. I am dying to eat one again.

I'm gonna eat one with a toffee 'cappucino' which isn't actually cappucino but probably closer to a latte and I don't care that it comes out of a machine, it's amazingly good.

Good think I'm broke as hell, or winter would make me gain a scary amount of weight.

[agirlfromnowhere]

Normally I never go to Starbucks but this time of the year I go about once every 2 weeks because of the pumpkin spice latte. On my last trip I got the peppermint mocha and while it was okay I prefer the pumpkin spice. I also like the cake pops but I rarely get them.

[Andara Bledin]

Now I'm kind of Jonesing for some Chai something or other... will have to see if there's a shop near where I'm going to be, tonight.

^-.-^

[Dasota]

The only thing Christmas-y I want starting ASAP is Tim Horton's Candy Cane Hot Chocolates.

But I'll settle with Starbuck's Peppermint flavored stuff.

[Treasure]

Lupo can back me up on this one....Pumpkin Soy Chai - hot, iced, blended - doesn't matter

Pacific Northwesterner here. You think being a coffee hater in New Orleans is bad?!

Love the scent of coffee, hate the taste. I've tried hot chocolate from Starbucks, and it tastes like there are coffee grounds in it. Don't know if it's cross-contamination or the barrista's not paying attention.

Hee, hee, I hear ya. The immediately prior generation pretty much all talk about growing up and drinking a cup of coffee every day from the age of eight or so -- tho most of them, in their youth, did so by using bread to soak it up and then munching on that, rather than really drinking it hot.

The guys at Cafe Du Monde used to put on a nice show when you asked for cafe au lait, tho ^_^

[AmbrosiaWriter]

Gotta love those people who look at you and are like, "How can you hate coffee! How do you survive?"

"Uh... last time I checked coffee was not a required nutrient in order for my body to function and continue to live..."

"Have you tried this? Maybe you'll like this."

"Nope, and nope."

One time my friend tried to prove I actually did like coffee and I was just trying to be different. Instead of getting me a hot chocolate like I requested when he was making a dunkin donuts run, he told them to make it half hot chocolate and half coffee.

It ended up on his face when I took a sip and immediately spit it out right on him. It was so bad. >_<

Blasphemers! Coffee is the drink of the gods! All hail the Holy Bean! *heads to the Temple of Worship to pay tithes and sip of the Holy Pumpkin Latte*
