Taking over the world with velvety chocolate goodness
First off, had another “smells like home moment” again. Another fire. I really think I should just rename this site the “Ashtray Fires Near Old Street Tube Blog” and be done with it.
I hate what Starbucks “stands for”. I hate that they over saturate an area with stores, forcing all the other coffeeshops out of business. (Although, that fact gave us this amazing picture:)

Anyway, back to the rant — Starbucks has all these things going against them. I know this.
But I still can’t help myself. The Dark Mocha Frappucino is heaven in a plastic cup. I could live off these things.
Oh, and Combos. Gotta have Combos too.
In still other news, went ice skating last week. It was the first time in probably 10 years that I’ve gone ice skating for fun (i.e., not in the suit of armor that I normally wear). It was scarier than I remember, that’s for sure. It was still a lot of fun, though. Even with the awful music being played on a far-below-suboptimal sound system.

COMBOS! Those are a snack that I manage to avoid for most of the year, then during a long road trip I end up buying a bag and reminding myself how wonderful their artificial goodness is.*
* - I’m sure there’s something on that bag that claims Combos are made with “100% real cheese.” But there’s no way anything naturally grown was used in the making of Combos.

My sources say 60% cheese. We smuggle them into the UK now every time we go home - they don’t have them over here. Even regular pretzels are tough to find. I’ve found one shop that sells them — they’re the “Penn State Pretzels” brand, which I find pretty amusing.

When you are in the corner and have no money to get out from that, you would require to take the loan. Just because that should aid you unquestionably. I get college loan every single year and feel OK because of that.
