It’s a new tradition on a Saturday morning. I pulled in to the narrow and sloped parking lot of Starbucks in Florida City Florida, and I approached the front door of the joint. All of the windows were soaking wet with thick condensation, and there’s a valid reason for that. It’s frigid inside – in the low-to-mid-60s ! It hits you as soon as you enter the unmistakable atmosphere of ‘Yuppieness’. It’s like a cold front at the door – so refreshing on the other side.
TODAY I ordered something new. I went with the Caramel Macchiato. I actually had this all planned out last night. That Starbucks menu board is just so menacing to me. I’m still an amateur customer. If famed Chicago Bears Tight End & Head Coach Mike Ditka were around then I’d just let him choose my coffee of the day (blatant “Kicking & Screaming” reference), but since that option is not on the table I have to go online the night before and pick and choose my beverage.

I also ordered the Black Forest Ham, Egg, & Cheddar Sandwich. It was delicious, and it was the perfect complement to my Caramel Macchiato.
Be sure to join me next Saturday morning for another exciting edition of ‘Starbucks On A Saturday Morning’ – right here on ‘The Major’s Life Blog’. It’s all good !
The Major … OUT !
