Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte & Nutrition

This morning, I had to drive my daughter to school. I decided that since I was already out, I might as well treat myself to a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks. I’ve really enjoyed these lattes in the past. They are made with a pumpkin-milk base and pumpkin pie spices. I made my own version last year….. I’ll share my recipe as soon as I find where I put it. 
I had my boy in the car, so we hit the drive-thru. It took forever. Seriously. I think I was in that line for almost 10 minutes and my coffee cost …read more

Counting Down to Pumpkin Spice Lattes

If you’re like me, you count down the days until September 1st. Not only does it mark an (unofficial) turn of the seasons with cooler weather, crisper air, and falling leaves, it also means pulling all of my autumn decorations out of storage and decking out the house in reds, oranges and golds!

More on how to dress for work in summer.

The other morning, I was looking out of my office window (the one that faces the front yard)–suddenly, I notice two teenage girls approaching my neighbor’s house. I know these girls, they are about 13 years old and solidly in that annoying “and I told him, just what-e-Ver” phase.
I wouldn’t have continued my gaze had it not been for what they were wearing at 12:00pm in the afternoon: pajamas. Also, they were each holding a Starbucks cup and each had a purse slung over their shoulder.
It looked like a scene from the Nickelodeon version of Desperate Housewives or the New …read more
