My name is Janey and I am a caramel Mocha addict...

It's ironic, a short time ago I was not a coffee drinker at all. I have come to realize that I am a coffee addict...well, not normal coffee, just mochas and caramel mochas to be more precise. Caffeine is my drug of choice ;o) I never thought of myself as an addict until we went on our trip to the Non-trad conference in New Hampshire last month...a mocha was never something I had to have until I couldn't have one. The closest I could find was coffee at Dunkin Donuts, but coffee with lots of creamer is not the same as a mocha. After three days with minimal sleep, I was SO happy to find a Starbucks at the airport on the way home.

What brings this thought up now? Well, my barista caught me cheating on her! I have my favorite Starbucks which is actually the kiosk inside of Safeway...okay, I like it because you are able to earn free drinks. I love going in there because they always know what I want and if I decide that I don't want my usual, then they always know the right thing to suggest for my tastes. Another bonus is that my favorite barista has the same name as me but spelt differently- Janie. This week I had to go into the franchised Starbucks, which is actually just across the parking lot, to get a cute gift card as a door prize for the Non-trad meeting and my usual barista found out! I usually go into my Starbucks once a week and they had wondered why they hadn't seen me.
