But Pumpkin Spice is for every day!

Mmmmm. :coffee: I have not had Starbucks in a long time. Maybe it is time for me to try to get out to one. :)

I can deal with the Pumpkin spice being brought out early- it is after all, harvest season. Gingerbread, though, should not be until Thanksgiving.

I think I'll be drinking more coffee in the future. I love those syrups and I will break my moratorium on corn syrup to have them.

Hand-crafted gingerbread lattes.

Ok. I've got a $5 Starbuck's giftcard that's been in my wallet way too long...

Oh, come to me, sweet pie in a cup!!! :D

You are an evil little woman, Betty!

But I stopped by Peet's today, and guess who now has pumpkin spice! (because, of course, they use real sugar-based Monin syrups). I couldn't decide if I wanted the pumpkin or my usual vanilla, so she did a half-and-half. Pumpkin candy in a cup! (Actually almost too much, I'll probably hold to one or the other in future, but it's an experience that may have to be tried by all)

How cool! There's a brand new Peet's location by my work place.:):coffee: :snap:

I have a friend from High School who works as a Manager at a Starbucks in Athens, GA and she let me in on a secret. There is only one seasonal item they can make all year round (because they keep the syrup in stock and use for items) and that is peppermint. You have to ask for it because it is not advertised.

Grumble grumble Starbucks grumble...

Went there today and they said they can't start selling them till tomorrow. They wouldn't make me one. I shoulda backed out of the drive through! (But you know I didn't... :/ )
