MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION, PLEASE!

ATTENTION: RUN, DO NOT WALK, TO STARBUCKS!  They have their pumpkin spice latte out again and it is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.!  Almost as good as my dark peppermint mochas that should be coming out verrrrry shortly... ;)

That is all.  I guess I can thank Zach for my pumpkin obsession.  All I can think about is pumpkin pie now.  My house smells like a pumpkin pie because I have the Yankee Candle pumpkin reed things throughout the house and several B&BW pumpkin wall smelly things, too.

Re: MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION, PLEASE!

  • I am waiting for the Peppermint Mochas with baited breath....it can't come soon enough because I actually can't stand pumpkin. Please still be my friend, Steph! :)
  • Ugh...  My mouth is watering.  I've been trying to avoid Starbucks lately...

    I almost (ALMOST!) had a heart attack when they installed the new snack machines here at work...there are Frapps in the machine and I thought it was the Peppermint Mocha ones.  Not yet...soon....soon!  And I will buy many, many boxes of them... ;)

  • So because of this post I had to run downstairs and get some coffee, put some sugar in it, put some ice, put some vanilla, mix it, and put some whip cream on top and drink it.  Thanks.  It was very satisfying.  And now I'm electric!!!
  • I haven't been to Starbucks in forever. I think I may just have to treat myself this weekend.
  • Mmm... this thread also makes me think of pumpkin beer. I saw the first six-packs of the new season's batches when I was out shopping this weekend. I'm usually not in the mood for it until the weather cools down a little, but after all this pumpkin talk it's sounding good. LOL

  • OOOHHH...one of my favorite things about the holiday season...peppermint mocha, YUM! Pumpkin is pretty good too.
  • This is just not right :( I am on a low fat diet and this just doesn't help!
  • And you would think that my good friend would know to get me one of those instead of my usual.  But noooooooo.  I can't complain, though...at least she brought me SOMETHING!  Stick out tongue  Love ya!

     

  • Yum, I love all things pumpkin.  Especially the lattes and pumpkin beer.  A few weeks ago I made pumpkin cream cheese muffins and they were awesome. 

  • Not sure if you ladies know, but you can get the peppermint mochas year round...that's my favorite drink and I always get it! It is special to just treat yourself during the holidays though. I know I'll miss it this year! Sad
  • ...and I'm bringing donuts and pumpkin spice lattes in for LeeAnn and I tomorrow.  MUW HA HA HA! ;)

    Daisy, I think EAM told me last year that Starbucks has the peppermint mochas year round in the store, but I puffy heart the glass container frapps that you get from Target...I stock up and drink to my heart's content at home.  Hehe ;)

    Its not the same as the Christmas version though. At least not the ones I had. It is a different syrup...not as strong and they dont have the red sprinkles ya know, cause that makes it all kinds of different. Hehe....

    Oh, And dont cheat yourself. It is OK to have a latte when you are pregnant(if that is what you are referring to) You are in 2nd tri I see....Congrats on that and by all means drink some caffiene.

    I'm pretty sure you can get decaf lattes too- it just has to be a starbucks store, not one at barnes and noble.

    I completely missed the fact that you're pregnant...congrats!

    I skipped out on caffeine in my first tri just to be safe, but second and third have been filled with Starbucks ;)

  • Thanks, ladies. My OB told me "absolutely no caffeine" so I've been trying to be good...I think I'll definitely have to treat myself to a decaf one this fall though!
  • I am so excited it is finally that time of the year again when all the awesome flavors come out.  I have been being good and haven't been to Starbucks in over a month but this morning I am treating myself to a Pumpkin Spice Latte! Thanks for the info!!!

  • I'm pretty sure you can get quite a few things decaf at Starbucks that aren't on the menu that way. Decaf caramel macchiatos (sp?) are my best friend right now!

    Neither does going on a cruise.  Sorry had to butt in...  I think I gained like 8 lbs when I went on my honeymoon cruise!  I swore I wouldn't because I swore I would go to the gym on board.  Nope never did.  Enjoy your vacay!

    I am so glad my doctor didn't tell me that!  And I don't know what Steph would do without our daily Starbucks runs...

  • I would fall asleep at my desk.

    Every day.

    I'm a Starbucks addict too, and it has been so hard to get through the das without my caffeine boost! It will be really hard to decide if I should have a latte or a margarita after the baby is born!

  • Well have someone bring you a latte in the hospital, and then have the margarita at home!  Wink

     

  • Thanks for letting us know! That is one of favorite drinks, next to the peppermint mochas!!!
