Finally

Today was the first time I realized it was getting close to Fall. Why? Because we walked into Starbucks this morning, and Pumpkin Spice Lattes are back!!!!! Oh yeah, baby!! My favorite Fall drink! Woo hoo!!

I was so happy that I didn’t even mind that my children were chasing each other around the store. That is until I calmed them down with chocolate milk and cookies. I know, I know, more sugar. But it worked at the time.

Here’s a picture of Georgia enjoying her Starbucks drink. Like mother, like daughter.

Then we came home, and I forced Eric to sit down and join Netflix. Yippee skippy!! Eric wasn’t too happy when he quickly realized that I had found a new obsession. In only a few moments, I had about 30 movies in my queue. I also added friends, such as Morgen and Sadie, and had fun looking at all the movies on their lists. If anyone else is a Netflix member, let me know so I can add you as a friend and judge you by the movies you like to watch.

Tomorrow, I am off to the actual theatre to go see Halloween (the remake)! I can’t wait. I’m sure it will scare me so much that I won’t be able to sleep for days. I don’t know why I do this to myself, but I am such a huge fan of the Halloween series, and Michael Myers is so scary that he literally makes me want to pee my pants.

I will write up a review this weekend after I see it. If you haven’t watched the trailer yet, you can check it out below. Freaking scary!

13 Things I Love To Get At Starbucks


When my husband heard this week’s topic, his reaction was, “I didn’t even know they had 13 things on the menu,” and then “I don’t even WANT to know how much money you spend at Starbucks.” I didn’t tell him how hard it was to narrow it down to 13.

What? I enjoy my Starbucks. And so do the kids. Sue me!

And just for the record, this isn’t a PPP, but I’m holding out hopes that someone will send me free coffee! Happy Caffeinated TT to all!

1. Triple shot nonfat white chocolate mocha – This is what I get most days. On the hot days, I get it iced.

2. Raspberry Frappucino – New and yummy!

3. Orange Crème Frappucino – Eli loves these! They taste like an orange creamsicle.

4. Madeleine cookies – Georgia’s favorite Starbucks treat – yummy little butter cookies.

5. Blueberry white iced tea – I love ANYTHING blueberry! I only wish they had blueberry syrup to put in their coffee. But this tea is amazing, sweetened or unsweetened.

6. Green tea chai latte – I tend to drink this one when I have a cold. It’s as close as I get to a health drink.

7. Toffee almond bar – Dude! Toffee, chocolate chips. Yum-o!

9. Egg Nog Latte – Nothing says Merry Christmas like an egg nog latte. I just wished they had these all year round.

10. Espresso brownie – When I need that added little jolt.

11. Chocolate milk – Georgia’s favorite, and let me tell you – their chocolate milk kicks ass!

12. Passion fruit tea – This is Eric’s favorite. He tends to go for the teas over the coffees, and he swears by this one!

13. Pumpkin Spice Latte – Oh sweet Lord, this is why I love Fall!
