Starbucks has it's lovers, Starbucks has it's haters - and Starbucks has people like me who don't like the prices, don't particularly *love* the drinks but don't know any better to go anywhere else.
That is until they discover Second Cup! WHY have I never realized how wonderful this place is??
First, and most important - it's CANADIAN!
Secondly, and the one you'll remember - it's freaking delicious! The drinks are wonderful, the servings are larger (and you can actually pronounce them without looking and sounding like a babbling idiot) and the prices are lower.
I've been introduced to the iced non fat butter pecan latte, which is to die for. I may cheat on my new lover and try another drink - but for now I am savouring it's sweetness.
They also have *fabulous* pastries that are locally made at the bakeries near the store. So far I've had the lemon poppy seed twist and the spinach longhorm (which is basically spinach dip in a puff pastry - faint.)
Run - don't walk to your nearest Second Cup and you'll never look back again!
