I used to talk so much crap about the Starbucks Yuppies and their $5 coffee. Then, one hot summer day, my mom brings me in what is left of her icy cold beverage and swears it's the best thing since brownies. I took my first sip and I knew it was going to be all down hill from there. My own mother did this to me. I was skipping on cigarettes to afford these goddamn drinks! Cigarettes! That's when I knew I had a problem. <br />Since, I have slowly tapered my consumption down to maybe one or 2 a month. I can't say what my secret to success was, as I am not entirely sure. I think it had something to do with Summer fading into Winter and the drinks not being quite as refreshing as they once were (though they still remained to be incredibly tasty).Also, I think the fact that after looking through receipts for the month at the end of that Summer, the total amount spent on Starbucks alone could have paid a utility bill. Talk about an intervention.<br />Good luck with your recovery. There are 12 step meetings for everything. You can always hit me up for support.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826977458991854551.post-5108030143292226342010-09-22T05:28:25.047-07:002010-09-22T05:28:25.047-07:00ETW- Gross?

And hey these things are not bitter. No siree. I really want you to try it..plz, for me? I think it was you who suggested some Kettle Cooked chips not too long ago..(although I do get you and The Eternal List confused sometimes).I tried them and changed my photo per your suggestion so you owe me, just try it okay?<br /><br />Linda- 4 creams, 4 sugars, Hmmmm Maybe just get the Frappe?

You could be a pack a day smoker, a drug addict and I don't mean OTC drugs, you could be a child abuser, a chronic bank robber.<br /><br />I've tasted the object of your obsession.
