sorry i've been off the radar in the blogosphere, but hey, I just had a baby 7 weeks ago, what'd you expect? : ) They aren't kidding when they say having a baby changes everything.
So, funny story from starbucks the other day. This lady came in, and wanted "that coffee/slushy thing." Generally we get that once every couple weeks or so, and we know they mean a frappucino. So we explain that to her, and she says it can't have sugar in it, which it does. So, we recommend the "creme based" frappucino, as that is dairy based and has splenda in it. She quickly fires back "I can't have splenda." So, after discovering she doesn't want sugar, and can't have splenda, we talk her into an iced coffee with cream. No big deal right? Well, right before she pulls out of the order window she yells back at us, "yeah, I can't have splenda, it gives me... diarrhea! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" and then pulls off to the window to pay. Then she asks me when she gets there if that was too much info. Trying to be nice I say, "well, we didn't exactly see that coming," and try to affirm that I've heard weirder things. I said she'd fit right in on the barista line jokingly, to which she says, "great! i'll bring you more stories next time." Then as I hand her drink to here she says, "yeah, nothing's worse than being out shopping with your friends and not knowing you've had something with splenda in it until it hits you all of a sudden." To which I think to myself, THIS moment might easily be worse than that moment.
Sorry,you get to share in the misery/awkwardness.
Hope we live past Wednesday!

Thanks for sharing!! That was awesome! You should have slipped some splenda in there, so when she came back, she could of had another story for you. Oh wait, you don't want to hear about that...
