There are few places where I can feel like I'm at home. Starbucks is at the top of that list, followed by B&N and Target which -stay with me- both feature a Starbucks inside! Anyway, I just walk in, and they start preparing my drink. Venti Soy White Mocha, with whipped cream. They don't even ask for my name as they write "Zee" on the cup. I have always been pleased with my visit. However, we don't "live in Perfect", right? It was bound to happen, of course, one time or another.

Lightnote BlendToday, Starbucks did not have my pound of Lightnote, which is one of my favorite blends. It makes my spirit sing, just like in the picture. It's hard to find anything positive about not getting my coffee, but seeing as how my mom taught me to always look at the bright side, I looked around noticed the Aged Sumatra Lot 523. I try it. It's rich and bold, and oh so yummy! So I bought it. Bonus? They are still donating $2 to the help relief efforts due to the tsunami. Which means, I'm still helping! Somehow that makes my coffee taste even better. :o)

But I wasn't the only one to suffer a slight coffee mishap today. Jen did too, although there should be a law against wasting coffee like that, and I hope she wasn't brewing Starbucks. :oP
