Coffee has two virtues: it is wet and warm.

Don't those silly Dutch know you are supposed to add cream to cool it down? *CLICK*

Wednesday nights have become a bit sacred to me. Cam is active in a youth group that meets from 6:00PM until 8:30PM. It's a bit of a drive for us (as is everything when you live in the puckies) so rather than drive home, I visit the local Starbucks, have a Venti Skinny Vanilla Latte, no foam, 2 extra shots, log on to the free wi-fi, and spend a little quality time with Rhonda. It's relaxing and I really look forward to it!

I can only imagine...what the baristas were thinking with that click through. :)
I love an indulgent cup of coffee, and you look so peaceful here.
Ooh, what a great shot! Was that your first attempt??
You do seem to have a bit of a problem with things dripping down your chest, don't you?
And that is why I'll never go to Starbucks.
Cuz they don't have "columbian, medium-light roast, light n sweet with Coffeemate french vanilla creamer"
:P
that and i'd forget the first 4 adjective by the time i got to the end, end up repeating them, and get it alll sorts of fucked up.
Sounds lovely. But my favorite coffee spot is Boy Toy's couch, where I generally snuggle when I get up in the morning while he makes me one of his awesome three layers coffers. Yum. With mapple syrup in it. :D
Damn, now I want one!
And it's a fabulous picture, by the way :)
LOL at Ms. I.... Silly her, as IF the Baristas *would* have issues with that?! Pffbbtt! ;)
I *ADORE* Starbucks....YUMMY.
:)
Your Starbucks has FREE wi-fi? Those bastards charge around here.
Oh uh .. love the pic! ;-)
I love cream in my coffee. Yours looks delicious.
Coffee is love in a cup to me....
And a little cream is better ;)
HHNT!
I love it when you drip. Cheers Dana!!
Warm and wet are surely virtuous....
excellent drippage!
Very cool shot, you are so artistic and your timing was incredible. I love the first shot too, cool lighting. You have a very creative side Dana.
HHNT.
xo
Loveeeeeeeeeeeeee the click thru, just so picture perfect... That's it,, perfect!
Happy HNT, and enjoy that coffee with the cream of course...;-)

Very nice capture there. I always love your posts.
you ought to see what we do at Peets!
well done.
You just can't beat a good cup of coffee. Coffee is my favourite drink.
I love these HNT's where you play around with food. I might have to stop by and see where this fits on your 'normal meter'.
Happy HNT!
I love a good cup of coffee. It's almost midnight here and your picture makes me want to head into the kitchen and make a nice cup. *sigh*
You look lovely, as always and the click is great! ;)
Happy HNT!
Mmmmmmm. Omyhell. You've just made crave Starbucks even more than I already do. Yum. Yum. And Yum :) *smiles*
I'm a coffee& lotsa cream whore and I'm brave enough to admit that after seeing this. :)
You & your drink look delicious. I luv your pics & look forward to 'em every week ;)
*smiles*
I love the pic of you with the coffee. When work is going no-where, I take my sketchbook to a coffee shop, order a bucket of latte and inspiration usually comes.
Very nice! I always like to add lots of cream to... coffee. ;)
I am not one to use cream that much, but when it is served that way, oh so delicious.
Nice one can I have a extra shot in mine please !!
Ms. I, there is this one, really ummm ... HOT barista who I really wanted to have help me!
Os, I just can't help myself! Something happens when I get nekkid with food - I just want to feel it!
Lilly, I always give my order backwards just so that I can watch them roll their eyes and repeat it back in the correct order!
Elle, in my home, I bring the coffee to husband and place it on his nightstand as his "alarm clock"
Vixen, the Starbucks that I visit is the one closest to my house ... and it's a 30 minute drive!
Jay, as long as you have a Starbucks Card with at least $5 on it, you get 2 hours free!
Diana, and it's French Vanilla!
Average Chick, I'm addicted - I confess!
Matt-Man, who'd have thunk that a drip could be good?
Sage, drip ... drip ...
Evening, I like to have fun with HNT!
~c, I'm drinking a cup now!
Good to the last drop;-)
13messages, some times I get a bit serious, but usually I just like to have fun!
Kat, *gigglesnort*
Adam Apple, on my normal meter? You aren't going to make me calibrate it before you stop by, are you?
Amorous, I can drink coffee any time of the day or night. It's that headache that I get from a lack of caffeine that concerns me!
I Smile, thank you so much!!
Artist, I had a blueberry scone with that Latte - it was yummy and inspirational!
Corky, why do I think you might not be talking about French Vanilla cream??
Kannon7, they say that presentation is everything!
Nicey, of course - I aim to please!
I'm not much of a coffee drinker...I like hot chocolate. Your click through is nice...."add cream" I like it!
HHNT
You got the 'droplets'???? that's a great camera and Photographer!! You're such the Hussy...I love you to pieces!
Glad you were able to indulge...
HHNT!
Coffee.. There's something I miss.
Honestly, the days when I was a contractor were the last days that I had REALLY good morning coffee, but only when they cut me a small slice out of the pot!
Great pic Dana!
HHNT!
I'll have it just as it is, but with cream.
Superb shot! :-)
Didn't cool me down a damn bit! ;)
Great shots.
Starbucks coffee makes my stomach hurt. The only way I can drink it is if it's drowned in milk. ;)
The Dutch have been known to be silly on several occasions.
Great pics!
very nice shot!! ;)
HHNT!
Mmmm. Now THAT's how to take your coffee!
Cool picture. This is my first time reading your blog. Keep up the good writing and humor. I love your perspective!
Cheers, Sugar
SV
Most Dutch around here load their coffee with cream and sugar! Same or worse with tea..
I was totally scared you were going to get naked in Starbucks! Whew. :)
Sweet! Literally! It would be so nice to have you with coffee and cream....er, I mean to have coffee and cream with you....er, you know what I mean!
Happy HNT
That click-thru is beyond great, love it!
HHNT!!
Turnbaby, me and Folgers!
Naughty-I, Starbucks does hot chocolate quite well too!
tt, hussy? I think that's the best compliment I've had all day!
Jennybean, indulgence is my middle name ... or maybe my first name!
Jormengrund, just don't forget the cream!
not2shy, the coffee??
RLL, it should have 'cause it was REALLY cold!
FF, I think I've built up a tolerance for the acidity in the coffee - I've been drinking it almost as long as you've been alive *wink*
P & S, I like their tulips, but they need to be a bit more practical!
Hetero-Sapphic, thank you!
garbonzo, gives the phrase "coffe, tea or me?" a whole new light, doesn't it?
S Vixen, thank you! Please come back!
Buff, I never did quite get the milk in tea concept ... and it just wouldn't photograph well either.
Karen, it's bad enough that I was cropping the cream pics while at Starbucks. I think I had better get one of those privacy screens!
Flyinfox, I know what you mean ... you like your coffee with a little cream!
Holy Moly girl! That is a GREAT shot!
the puckies? *giggle*
Me likes very much! But you seem tohave spiled the cream, may i lick up off you? ;)
A very HHNT
i like it,
i like it a latte
hhnt!
I haven't read through the other comments. Has anyone else offered to help you clean that up?? *drooling*
You named your laptop...missed that. I'm so attached to mine, it should have a name as well.
*hahaha* You do have a habit to soil with food and drinks and I'm very happy you share that with us instead of wearing bib *lol*
Happy HNT!!!
Ohh la la! The added benefit of having out at Starbucks is almost 3 hours to yourself. I love the click-thru, HHNT!
LOL at Os. You do seem to have a drinking problem there hon. :)
That is an excellent shot, a moment captured!
swingerwife, sometimes they even surprise me!
Bina, thank you *blushes*
Leighann, yeah! The puckies!! Right next door to you!
Mike, me and food seem to have a very nekkid attraction!
Pronto, now *THAT* was funny!!
Biscuit, you thought I was cheating on you with Rhonda, didn't you?? Not as smitten as I am *wink*
d2b, it's this unnatural attraction between my skin and food!
Nolens Volens, it is a wonderful weekly escape!
g-man, it's this darn food addiction that I have! If I can't eat it I just want to rub it all over myself!
So you have to rub food all over yourself, eh Dana?
That explains your fetish with cucmbers and carrots!
*muha!*
I'm not a fan of Starbucks, but am a fan of licking spillage of of boobies. Very HOT!
PS
Remember to mark your calender for November 6th! ;-)
That's so cool! Er, warm. Er, hot.
I had a coffee theme this week but I was too chicken to include cream. Nice work, Dana.
Also, a *really* surprising contrast between the first photo and the second.
Happy HNT,
figleaf
unnatural or not, I really enjoy that attraction ;)
you dribbled!
hehehehehehehee
I love the lighting in this shot. It does look relaxing!
Jormengrund, cucumbers and carrots? Never!! But corn on the cob is always an option!
Bookbinder, I'd never miss an opportunity to flash you *wink*
Figleaf, was that your coffee I was drinking? I noticed your pot was empty!
dana, Yes indeed it dose! And you wont hear me complaining either ;)
Good Afternoon Dana,
I'm not too fond of Starbucks, but the click thru looks mighty tasty!
awesome!
That click pic did anything but cool me down :-) I know it's Friday already but Happy HNT anyway!
The clicky is a beautiful shot! Cannot believe that you actually caught all those drops on a pic!
Happy belated HNT!
Incredible shot of the cream falling. Not a bad shot of it hitting either! Rhonda was looking hot too. An all around great post!
OMG woman, you so rock! I love this, and such a hot clicky! You are so creative.
Happy belated HNT!
