StarbucksMelody is on vacation and will be taking a very short break from producing new blog posts. She’s off to Disneyland, and will return to her usual routine of blogging about three times a week when she comes home to Seattle. Please come back and visit the site next week! In the meantime, here are a few older blog posts to peruse:

I will see all of you back here soon! It’s just a one week break! Oh yes, be sure to visit the coffee blog of my friend Mike Crimmins while I’m gone this week – Here is his site DailyShotOfCoffee.com

I can’t wait for more Tribute! But I’m still holding out for some development of the Vivanno line. Hoping that...

Have fun!!!
But why do you go to Disneyland?
Have a nice trip!
@Sebastian
Maybe she wants to take a pic with Mickey!
Enjoy the time off! I’m pretty jealous, I haven’t been there since I was seven and lost my goofy ears!
On a more serious note, thanks for including me on the vacation reading list. Really honored to be a part of the community.
Have a great time!!
@Nob
HaHa…perhaps…:D
Happy vacationing! Steal some Starbucks mayorships while you’re down in LA
Disneyland, how fun! I’ve never been there but I bet you’ll have a blast! Take lots of pictures so I can live vicariously through you!
Have a great time at Disneyland! (My younger brother helped build the California Adventure park, but I’ve only been to the Orlando parks).
Hope you had a good time! Is there a Starbucks in Disneyland yet? Had read an article somewhere that there were plans for one…
Hope your trip was great. Saw your most recent comment on MSI and agree!!!
Have a wonderful time! I look forward to your Starbucks stories when you return. Safe travels!
to ‘purple1′: I saw that post (I think??too) Anyway, if it’s the one I saw, I just thought: wow, they closed this thread in RECORD time! and then they levae totally vulgar threads up for a long long time after they’ve been reported AND leave threads in action that are from way back in March ’08. ??? who knows.
(Reply to everyone, purple1, DeniseR, and latterose)
@everyone who wished me a good vacation: Thank you! I had a great time visiting with family, and Disneyland was a blast.
@purple 1 and DensieR – Was this thread about filling tea full when light ice is requested?
@LatteRose – I had really hoped that I would find a Starbucks in Disneyland because I know that gossip has been out there that Starbucks wanted a store right in Disneyland. There isn’t a Starbucks there. There is a Starbucks in DisneyParis but as far as I know, that the only Starbucks inside a Disneyland, so far.
@Cindy – I’ll have a couple of orange county store reviews coming up soon.
Excited to read the store reviews and see some pictures. The picture of one of the Starbucks you posted on twitter was very cool…very cool exterior! Enjoy the rest of your trip!
Melody- yes the thread was about adding more tea when light ice is requested. I still cannot understand why the person was going on and on about it.
Denise R- I actually was a bit annoyed they closed that thread so quickly on MSI. Am not sure why. I really think MSI has changed and would like to hear others comment re that. Melody your blog rocks!!!
I kept seeing your tweets of the different sbux you were at while on vacation. I enjoy your reviews as you experoence different sbux stores…it’s interesting to see what other people take in and notice. Another mini tour review would be cool if you’re wondering what to do next (reader request HEE HEE HEE) Thinking back – one of my favorite posts is the review of tea that you did…for the portland tzao tea (if I’m remembering correctly). Thank you
I think some of your store reviews are my favorite posts…especially ones outside of Seattle because you can get a perspective of the stores further away from corporate. I am excited to hear all your reviews of the CA Starbucks…looks like you went to quite a few judging from 4sq!
That tazo link you posted there is awesome! The tazo tea is many things to me, but it’s my normal at home drink before its anything else. I wish there was more talk about the tazo tea’s then there are on the blogosphere. Do you drink any of the tea that starbucks offers? If so what blend?
