Things that might happen while sitting at Starbucks, trying to write about King Oyster Mushroom & Mango Avocado Salsa Cups:

– Someone having a very loud, not-so-private-anymore phone conversation will sit on the table in front of you

-A couple of girls having a very loud, no-so-private-anymore conversation (usually filled with “OMGs,”, “seriously-s” and “like-s” ) will sit on the table behind you

– Random dude will try to strike up a conversation while you wait in line to order your drink. Opening line being “Getting some work done? What do you sell?” (head scratch)

– You will suddenly become someone named “Liz”, thanks to the barista at the register taking your order

– The very nice barista preparing your drink, who knows exactly how you like it, won’t call you Liz, cause she knows that’s not your name

– (Different) random dude will sit at your table while you’re waiting for your drink and will act surprised when you come back and sit down: “Oh, did I sit at your table? I’m sorry”. No sir, empty tables usually have laptops on them (head scratch).

– Same random dude will continue to sit at your table for another 10 minutes, also trying to strike up conversation (eye roll)

– Nice random gentleman witnessing the whole scene will shake his head and give you a sympathetic smile (sigh of relief)

– You will start thinking about changing the title of your blog post from “King Oyster Mushroom & Mango Avocado Salsa Cups” to “The Starbucks Chronicles”

Either way, enjoy! 🙂
