Starbucks just replaced my cigarette addiction....$2 Frappucino's

revellanotvanella @revellanotvanella (4033) • United States 1 Jul 09

It happens to the best of us, you conquer one addiction only to replace it with another. For me its these $2 Frappucino's. You go in right now order a coffee just like I did and the cashier cheerfully gives you a receipt to...

winewhisky I just can't believe the prices that Starbucks, Costas and other coffees places like this charge for their drinks. I can believe that it might cost you more as an addition than smoking cigarettes! You need to give it up now (or find a cheaper coffee bar to go...

winewhisky I think it can be hard to get recognition at work if you are the kind of person who generally keeps quiet and just gets the job done without making a lot of noise about it. I think you have to be aware that sometimes you have to take risks or the rewrads won't...

winewhisky There is something really lovely about swimming in the sea, the way that the waves work - you always come out of it feeling different and very refreshed I think. I don't live by the sea so I only swim in the sea on holidays so it could be that is what makes it...

winewhisky What a terrible experience. Poor you. Do rest up for the next six weeks and take things as easy as you can. Do you have a partner, relatives or friends who can help with the baby?

winewhisky I would look into selling it. Even if you think its out of fashion there might be a bride out there who wants an out of fashion dress. People have all kinds of different tastes, you never can tell. Or a dressmaker or someone good at dressmaking might want to...
