Overheard, travel edition

We returned yesterday from 12 days of traveling (2000 miles, 8 states.)  Anyhow, here are some signs you’ve been hitting the drive-thru Starbucks a little too often.  When your two and a half year old (a) knows that the St. Arbucks drive-thru does not have fries and doesn’t even bother to ask for them and (b) upon hearing “Welcome to Starbucks, what can we get started for you?” says “I’d like a grande mocha, please!”  (NB she has never, ever had a mocha.)

    That is too funny!

  2. jude says that he wants “two grande caramel machiattos, extra hot, with WHIP!”

    those two are made for each other. ;)

  3. Margaret says, as I pull up to any McDonald’s drive thru, “Med Coke, pwease.”

    And she always says thank you to the speaker box, I’m pretty sure they can’t hear her though [grin]

  4. I’m so glad to know you call it St. Arbucks, too!

    LOL – Sam says, “I’d like a chocolate milk please” as loud as he can so the drive-thru employee can hear him.
