This is TBrew here with your tri-weekly coffee update...
Sorry I just got interrupted by Lenny from the BU Medical Library. Probably looking for a pre-approval.
Anyway, I gave myself a little more time to get ready this morning and therefore couldn't run by Starbucks before my shift started. So, as Aaron was signing me into PH and I asked him if I could go get some coffee because I'm fairly sure I'm addicted now. He was silent for a moment and then snidely said I could go but ONLY if I got him something.
Little does he know how generous I am.
So I went out to get my Starbucks. Normally, around this time of year with the holidays approaching, I usually order a venti, iced, non-fat, pumpkin spice latte. The key ingredient here is pumpkin spice. I ALWAYS order it because it is only around this time of year. BUT, I did see on the menu that there was a new holidary special: the Caramel Brulée Latte.
Hmmm... I know what caramel is and I know what creme brulée is, but wtf is caramel brulée? So I naturally ordered it to try it. It's actually not that bad, reminiscent of the eggnog latte with a different spice is, but a million times better than the gingerbread latte which leaves a very weird aftertaste in your mouth.
Taking heed to what Aaron asked for, I bought him a pack of shortbread cookies and I came back to the office. I tossed them on his desk and then proceeded to hand out to OTHER PEOPLE the cookies I bought for him.
Goes to show what being nice does to people, makes them give away half to other people.
Oh well! My karma is good.

Those shortbread cookies were the shiz.
