Starbucks Run!

Folks have asked me, "Adrienne, does your staff fetch coffee for you?" Naturally, the answer is yes. Today's excursion to Starbucks was typical, so I'll share some pics.

As soon as we arrive, the employees assume their usual roles. Ann is in charge of ordering. "Let me guess," says the barista, "Adrienne's usual?"




Once the order is placed, Derek is in charge of quality control, monitoring every move as the drink is created.

Sue saves my seat.

Today was especially exciting because, as it turns out, barista Jessica moonlights as an orthopedic surgeon. She was able to re-set Bob's detached arm. And she made it look so easy!

While we wait for the drink to be concocted, Ann listens to a sales pitch from a carpet salesman who specializes in tiny cubicles. We may look into it.

Meanwhile, Bob searches for his favorite scone.

This happens every time. I keep telling him, "The scone is too heavy for you, Bob." But does he listen? No.

Finally the drink is ready to be doctored with Sugar in the Raw.

Another successful Starbucks run completed! Bob has his arm back and, most importantly, I have my coffee.
