As If I needed more reasons to buy Starbucks…

I may have mentioned before that I am a HUGE fan of Starbucks. Yes, I am a Starbucks-aholic. (stands up) Hi, I’m Patrice, and I’m a Starbucks-aholic. Everyone: Hi, Patrice. So the other day I was enjoying my Grande Non-Fat, with whip Mocha (what? I like it how I like it okay!?) when something caught my eye… On the back of my cup it said: “YOU. HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH CONSERVATION INTERNATOINAL FOR 10 YEARS.” (They put it in caps, not me just to clarify) So I was all umm… I’m not sure I follow? So I kept reading… “Everything we do, you do.” Ok, now I’m really confused… what are they saying to me?! I kept reading (I was bored, ok? I needed some entertainment…) “Buy our coffee and good things happen.” Well, I knew that… ask anyone that knows me, Starbucks can change my mood from bad to good, it has powers that even people don’t have! I won’t quote the whole thing (it’s really not that interesting!) Basically, they were just saying they have partnered up with CI (Conservational International) for the last 10 years and have therefore helped farmers and the planet, and by buying their coffee I am helping!! I don’t know about you, but I think this is FANTASTIC news! I can finally justify my Starbucks addiction love!! I am saving the planet, not satisfying my own needs desires!! I am helping farmers! I, Patrice, am making a difference in the world! So what if it costs me my life savings a few dollars? It is for a good cause!!! I especially liked the way Starbucks ended their letter to me: “It makes a difference. Just like you do. Congratulations, you.” YES! Congratulations, ME! I am a planet saver!!!!! Best.news.ever! :) This is my cup... I know you can't really read it, but I had to save the evidence! This is my excited face when I found out the great news! lol
