Elisabeth Akinwale “I’m Not Trying to Be That Diesel” I met Elisabeth at the Outlaw camp back in October. All I have to say is that she’s awesome – she seemed smart, doctor grounded and funny. And fit as hell.
I need your help on a coffee related problem. In the morning, visit this site I drink black coffee that I make at the house. In the afternoon, I usually have a cup of coffee around 2 or 3. It gets me “up” for my afternoon workout. For some reason, I prefer cream in my coffee in the afternoon. Not milk, not half and half, actual cream. The cream they use to whip to make into whipped cream.
At Starbucks, where I usually go, they don’t leave the good stuff on the coffee bar. I don’t put sugar in it – I just like the creaminess and the fat. At home, I blend unsalted butter in my coffee sometimes. Trust me, it’s amazing. Because I work all over the area, I go to many different Starbucks (I will head into Raley’s and hit the Peet’s counter when I can). On Monday, at the drive thru Starbuck’s in Turlock, I ordered my cream, and they wanted to charge me $.60. I was shocked – I told the guy I would drink it black. I wasn’t going to pay $.60 for an ounce of cream – cream is just one half of half/half – the other half is milk. He then told me never mind, and didn’t charge me for the cream.
Am I crazy? Am I a jerk? Would you pay $.60 for an ounce of cream? Should I?

Nope! I wouldn’t have paid for it either! You’re still sane….I think! 😉
I must be a jerk too….cause I would not like to pay for the cream. After all, it is a coffeehouse. Right? that’s what they do, make coffee drinks. What if I ordered a Breve….it’s all half and half. I think its time to talk to the management. Make a comment of Starbuck’s FB page. That will get them riled up!!
