We used to see each other every day. I'd swing into Starbucks and be greeted with a smile and a, "Hey Katie!"He always knew to start a venti dark roast for me - no room - but then depending on how hungry I was feeling, I would also grab a spinach and feta wrap.
For as lovely as this interaction was, it cost me close to $6 every day. Which is simply unreasonable for a girl who knows how to make her own coffee and prefers to drink it black.
My barista was a habit that I needed to quit.
But sometimes time gets away from me. Sometimes I hit the snooze button one too many - okay let’s be real - four too many times.
These are the mornings that I'd usually swing by Starbucks.
But every time I'd circle the lot for parking, stand in that line and then wait for my order to be ready, I'd realize that I wasn't saving any time at all. In fact it probably took longer than scrambling and egg and making my own coffee. Oh, and I was also hemorrhaging money. All because I liked seeing my barista. Time to make some changes.
