In other words:
Dear Victoria,
Get over it.
Love,
Starbucks
uh, so WHEN? the suspense is killing me. and the nearest dunkin’ donuts is 45 miles away.
Oh God. How do you survive?
(I’m kind of serious.)
Starbucks Maple Latte, we barely knew ye. Well, no. That’s a lie. I knew ye all too well and drank too many of ye.
But still.
there is a starbucks in town (a drive through!) so if i get the urge, i can go there.
i do miss taking the T into harvard and stopping to get my caffeinated hazelnut fix before i even reached the surface streets again…made the ten minute walk to my office a bit more enjoyable.
now that i work from home, i usually just make myself tea in the morning. sooo not the same, sadly.
going to DD now is a full day trip!
For the last couple of weeks, the Harvard routine you describe has gotten my mornings off to the right start. Substitute hazelnut for caramel and it’s the exact same thing. Makes such a difference to have something warm in the hands when the wind hits you coming off the escalator.
That was one of the serious cons to living in DC, one I didn’t think about until I got there. No Dunkies anywhere near me. At the time, I didn’t drink coffee (HA, so funny to think of now), but the idea of not being able to get proper donuts or coolattas messed with my head. Which is why I went way out of my way to make it happen once every couple of weeks.
Dear Starbucks,
Suck it and bring back the maple latte.
Love,
Michelle
P.S. You didn’t answer Vickie’s question, d-bags.
