Delish Caribou


On Tuesday we went out of town for a doctor appointment. I'll stop right here and fess up. I adore coffee! It is so superb. So much so... I used to work at a coffee shop and would love to again. But I do have this full time job, CT, and my men to think about. :) But of all the coffees out there, Caribou is my favorite.
.
The town where we live has no Caribou. Sad! We have Starbucks (which I dislike greatly) and a few local shops. There's one that I like on the other side of town. Mmmm. But it still doesn't meet Caribou delight. All this to say - I got Caribou on Tuesday! I got an Andes Mint blended mocha (2nd from the right in the pic) and boy was i glad. I'm not a big fan of chunks in my coffee. (I learned this a couple years ago when I got a Turtle Mocha from C and discovered it had chunks of nuts and chocolate. Gag!) This one had small chunks of Andes mints, but it was ok as it was blended. But as a general rule, I don't enjoy chewing my coffee.
.
This weekend I'm going out of town with some friends Caribou is on the mind... We WILL be making multiple pit stops. No choice. Ok, I suppose I'll end this very long rant dedicated to my love of coffee. Yum.

Great minds think alike! I've been craving Caribou for awhile and especially thinking about the trip and how we'll have Caribou at our every disposal!! And I still have $14 on a gift card to there!! YAY!!!!

By the way, did you figure out Twitter on your blog? There's a super easy place on Twitter that asks if you want to add it to your blog and blogger is one of it's affiliates so it makes it super easy to add. Let me know if you need help!

Another coffee nut over here!! I am not a fan of Starbucks either. And now, thanks to you, I am going to have to hunt around and see if we have a Caribou anywhere in town! Looks and sounds delish.
Smiles, Karen

I am a coffee fan also, but as opposed to a few of you ;-), I am a Starbuck's fan! But in Canada we mostly favor Tim Hortons!! Wish I could taste the caribou though, sounds fab!

An andes mint blended mocha sounds like something I would love!
