Day 256 can't wait for autumn

September 13th. Mark this day down in your Katie Calendar. My first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season! I made time to stop at Starbucks before work this morning with the intention of ordering one of these bad boys. It did not disappoint. Well, other than the fact that it was gone too quickly.

Day 216 tried something new

I found myself sitting in Starbucks with nothing to do today for a good 20 minutes (long story, not a good one). I used it as a chance to try a new drink. I'm usually an iced coffee girl, but today I went the route of a chai tea latte. Do you guys know about these?? My first thought was that it tasted liked iced christmas in a cup. YUM. I've discovered the Starbucks secret to success and it's these things, because all I could think about after I finished it was what time I'd be waking up tomorrow to get another one. Addicted.

Day 112 got a free cup

In honor of Earth Day Starbucks gave away free coffee to anyone who brought in a travel mug. I typically either drink coffee in a ceramic cup at home or in some sort of paper cup when I'm on the go. I had to search around for an appropriate travel mug. This is what I found. I have absolutely no recollection of buying this from the Franklin Institute but apparently I did. Check out that sweet view of the earth from space. Free coffee and discovering a badass Franklin Institute mug- happy Earth Day indeed!

Day 73 looks different

Yesterday at Starbucks I was surprised to receive my beverage in one of the new logo cups! I'm not usually a two day in a row Starbucks kind of girl, but I really needed a pick me up this afternoon. I'm digging the new design, especially the sleeve!

Day 49 has a Spring preview

The weather today is beautiful! Perfect for a late afternoon trip to Starbucks for some iced coffee and a treat. My mom (lady in green, not some random weirdo I sat with) and I celebrated the Spring preview by splitting a rice krispie treat or as Starbucks likes to call it, a "marshmallow dream bar." Sadly tomorrow and Sunday will actually feel like February. But for tonight I'm soaking up the warmth by going out for dinner and drinks. Happy Friday, friends!
