Coffee and Tea Talk - 2023

[Kat0121]

I wanted some hot tea. I decided to give Dunkin another shot so I ordered it and got my tea from the drive thru. I ordered it with cream and sugar. Pretty simple, right? I get home and took the lid off. No cream OR sugar. I had to add them myself.

9:30am at my friend's house- folgers vanilla cappuccino powder, milk, 4 little shelf stable vanilla creamer cups, spoonful of honey, pumpkin spice powder.

11:30am-- At Tim Hortons- Medium push button french vanilla cappuccino with 2 pumps of pumpkin spice syrup added & a dome lid! $3.11

3pm- Went to a housewarming party with mom, they made a pot of coffee and I added a caramel cappuccino k-cup that I brought to my cup. A bunch of people were like No! Don't put that in there, you need a k-cup machine. I was like no, it's just instant powder if it says cappuccino or latte on it. Ha!

I did it so you don't have to. Pumpkin spice frosty and pumpkin spice frosty cream cold brew.

The regular frosty was meh. J enjoyed it more than I did - she kept asking for more and ate about a third of it. I prefer the original frosty, but it was good to try.

The cold brew was terrible. I liked the other flavors Wendy's has better, but this was completely awful. Small chance they just didn't make it right, but probably won't try again.

I've watched some reviews of both items on YT and everyone is pretty much saying the same thing. The frosty is a hit and the cold brew a big miss.

Is anyone else super attached to their coffee cups? I had a set of six Noritake coffee cups initially but over the last few years have broken a couple. I really hate discovering in the morning that I don’t have a clean cup. I just love these cups, the right feel, the right size, so I have held off getting new ones. I always stop at the coffee cup section of a store, pick cups up and set them back down, just not right. But elation yesterday when I found MY cups at Marshalls. Not the same color but that’s okay. I now have seven so I should be set.

I like the coffee cups that mom's roommate has at her house. They are really tall & thin and they really keep the coffee hot!

Yes, count me in. I'm very fussy about the cups I drink my coffee from especially my first morning one.

Dark roast black this morning. We discovered a coffee shop we never knew existed so I don't know if it's new or we didn't know about it because it's not right around the corner. But we liked it a lot, DH had a chai latte and I had a latte w/oat milk. We brought home a pumpkin loaf from their bakery/pastry section.

My cups are Noritake Colorwave, originals in Raspberry and the new ones in Chocolate. They don’t have any pattern on them, just color on the outside and white inside.

Yes! I have a couple favourites, and always use them first, then work my way through to the least favourite.

4:30pm-- Got a pumpkin spice latte at McDonalds. They were so busy, it took forever. When I finally got it, they supersized it into a large! Then when I got home, I got an email that they refunded me! Nice!

It wasn't sweet enough though! Needed to ask for extra sugar I guess.

Didn't get a pic. I was in a hurry to get home to feed my kitties.

Dark roast black this morning and made it to our favorite coffee shop for an afternoon latte. One of the owners was there and we were able to talk for a bit which was nice.
