Welcome to CSR Nation

Any others with a Latte coffee addiction?

I only had my first Starbucks in NYC for the NCRA convention. Loved it; Vanilla Latte.
But could not spend the $$ for one, lol. Recently tho, I had a Creme Brulee Latte at a small,
local coffee shop and LOVE it! I am trying to keep it to once a week...figure is equal to a pack of
cigarettes a week? LOL! I also bought their Creme Brulee coffee and make it at home in my
latte maker DH got for me for my Birthday. Helps curb my craving, but not AS good as theirs!l
And I only do one large for the day of theirs, or two cups of mine. I don't have coffee past
2pm either, lol.

What other flavors are out there that I should try? This one is White Chocolate/Caramel.
Please share your coffee or other addiction!

I figure it really is not a 'bad' addiction...compared to what addictions you COULD have?? LOL!

Keep the ideas coming!

Comment by BernieB on March 3, 2008 at 17:40: I'm addicted. Hi, I'm Bernie & I'm addicted to coffee, period :) If you're at Starbucks & would like to try a different flavor, not knowing if you'd even like it, let alone pay for it, order a "short." (Not sure if you're "small" was referring to a short; people often mix them up or are not aware or forget that there is a smaller size other than the tall.
I myself have tried budgeting, staying away from Starbucks or any other coffee place for that matter...and failed miserably. Over time, though, I've learned to order more sensibly as to not give up my addiction. Now it's not so much that I love a particular flavor but a "just gotta have a Starbucks." So far, all the suggestions above are worth a try. Have fun & Enjoy :-)
