Transcript:
8:00am Cathy: Tall coffee with fat-free milk. 8:10am Cathy: This line hasn't moved in ten minutes! I deserve a grande whole milk latte! 8:20am Cathy: What's taking so long? I'm late! I'm stressed! I deserve a venti caramel macchiato! If all the sitting still doesn't ruin our "healthy-food plan" these days, all the standing still will. Cathy: Also, I deserve whip on that and some crumble-top coffee cake!!

My weakness is their chai tea, but I’ve found a recipe online to replicate that. Mmmm… lemon pound cake. Must. Go. Get. Some.

You can buy Chai tea mix at my grocery store!!! Saves a ton of $$ as I am addicted. My husband is in love with their lemon pound cake, my duaghter their classic coffee cake and my son their donuts. We try to avoid Starbucks as much as possible - but it’s a WONDERFUL treat.

Like anything with a big name it cost more, because you are paying for the name. Cathy go home and make your own.

You’re also paying for over-roasted coffee and flavored hot milk.
What really chaps me off is how Starbucks has driven much more diverse (and much better) small coffee houses out of business. They’re the Wal-Mart of caffeine.

How many years ago could you leave a quarter for a cup of joe and that would include the tip? Starbucks is marketing, just like all good merchandisers and politicians!

Imagine what she could rationalize after being stuck in an endless, stagnant relationship.

Yup, much better to brew a pot at home :)

The line could be “I saved myself time and money by not going to Starbucks and making coffee at home. I deserve a sugared flavor with whip!”
