I’m not sure what has happened. I didn’t ask for it to happen, but it has. And this is may-jhor, girls!
I have actually been drinking coffee other than Starbucks.
No, I swear it’s true!
The weirdest part is that I’m drinking coffee that, in the not-so-distant-past, I totally turned my nose up at!
It all began when I got ticked off at Starbucks, yet again. I don’t know why I keep going back, but I always do. It’s the Cafe Verona. I can’t help it. It’s truly Nectar of the gods.
So, back to my story. I stomped out of Starbucks in a snit and decided to go to Whole Foods for some free breakfast grocery shopping and decided to give their 365 Brand Colombian Coffee Beans another try. They had been okay before but definitely not Verona. Vee, one of my coffee snob bff’s, swears by it.
That was a month ago. And, while I have been back into Starbucks, I have not bought any other beans to brew at home except for the 365 Colombian from Whole Foods. And it is yummy. Really yummy.
But, and here is where it gets really wacky, this morning I popped into McDonald’s for an egg McMuffin and decided to get coffee instead of oj (call me crazy and wild).
Hold onto your knickers…it was tasty. Darn tasty.
Clearly the End Times are upon us.
That is the only explanation that makes any sense.
I am astonished. All of that with out a 12 step group! Amazing!

You’re not alone – I’ve heard that McDonald’s new coffee rates better than Starbucks in taste tests. I personally prefer it, too – something about Starbucks doesn’t agree with my tummy, but McDonald’s is fine.>>And if you’re ever in the mood for an iced coffee, their hazelnut iced coffee is a really good afternoon pick-me-up – especially if you ask for extra syrup! 🙂

Is that the stuff (365 Columbian) we had over at Jen’s? I enjoy the vanilla iced coffee at McD’s.

LOL, you are too cute!>But yeah, I heard McDonald’s actually went to great lengths to develop a new coffee blend, and it does indeed rate better on taste tests than Starbucks! Amazing, isn’t it?

Hi. I linked over from my blog to say thanks so much for taking the time to give me your cereal facts. I had a ton of fun doing math again. (Haven’t worked out percentages since college!)>>I am a Starbucks addict as well. I keep resolving to stop giving them my hard earned spending money and then, I find myself back in there. It’s the chai tea lattes.
