Eggnog Latte

Right now, this very moment, I am sitting in a Victoria Starbucks (using an external wireless provider for free!) and quitely celebrating the fact that I can now purchae an Eggnog Latte! For the record, I did not purchase an eggnog latte as I am here to do school-stuff, and therefore could not be relaxed to truly enjoy the first eggnog latte of the season (so I have a chai latte instead). But I have been thinking of some of the pros and cons of the eggnog latte which I would now like to share with you, the viewer.

pro: It is delicious

con: It is expensive (and I am poor)

pro: It fills me with Christmas Cheer

con: It is not exactly healthy, especially considering how much better it tastes with 2% than with skim.

pro: It is one more reason to come to starbucks

con: It is one more reason to come to starbucks

In conclusion: rationally: I should avoid the eggnog latte. Luckily, I am not rational, and therefore, in conclusion: Yay eggnog latte!!

ONE MINUTE LATER: I just remembered.... Chai Eggnog Lattes!!! Well - that certainly ends any doubts I may have had regarding the quandary of the eggnog latte.

While you were blogging about the pros and cons of an egg nog latte, you could have enjoyed one AND THEN started the study stuff. Too late now as you are probably hard at work.

I too love the eggnog latte. And I too have been weighing the pros and cons. They are so good but I'll have to limit myself if I want to lose the baby weight.

a girl after my own heart with the eggnog lattes!

one of the things i am most looking forward to when i come home is sitting in a starbies and having an eggnog latte in a red cup.

only 36 more days until eggnog latte (and friends, and christmas celebrations, and family, and all that other important stuff too)!
