One Sip Review of Starbucks Caramel Flan Latte

, , , ,

After my initial sip of the new Starbucks Caramel Flan Latte, here’s my review:

This is darker than I would’ve thought.

I was expecting sweet, light, custardy. But instead, the drink tastes “dark” like the chocolate. There is, of course, the caramel whip cream which helps balance out the entire drink.

What is a Caramel Flan Latte? Here’s a description from a receipt I got.

Oh about that caramel-infused whip cream with caramel drizzle. It looks like this in real life.

Next, I need to see what an iced flan tastes like.

Thanks to Vizify and Twitter, here’s a collection of my top tweets of 2013. Nothing overly exciting but some of the tweets are surprising for being in the top.


Is It Time for Prime?

,

Loved that Amazon online ordering and timely delivery for Christmas? Might as well increase that joy by becoming an Amazon Prime member. Sure you have to pay an annual fee of $79, but as part of this service, you get online access to movies and television shows, Kindle books, and better shipping speeds.

Join Amazon Prime now and get a full year’s worth of benefits before and through next Christmas.

LEGO Movie Minifigs

A little late to the game on getting some LEGO minifigures based on the upcoming LEGO movie. Fortunately, the Ala Moana LEGO Store opened a fresh box before I made my purely random picks.

Out of five pulls, I have Wiley Fusebot, Larry the Barista, and Hard Hat Emmet (not pictured).

I have two unopened packs but I think they are Where Are My Pants Guy and Scribble-Face Bad Cop (could be another Emmet). I’m liking all the zombies, Taco Tuesday Man, and Panda Guy.

The Latest PRISM Discovery??

, ,

Is this the latest tidbit of information unearthed by the PRISM program? Is this one of the secrets Eric Snowden stumbled across and knew it had to be made public? Of course, we’re talking about the existence of the uber secret 2014 calendar for Club 939.

Are these discoveries truth or fiction? Only one way to find out. Head on over to the club on January 8, 2014 and get your calendar signed by the ladies.

The Harvest of Great Harvest Bakery Kailua

, , , ,

And the harvest has ended. In August of 2006, a Great Harvest Bakery location opened in the Enchanted Lakes Shopping Center. At the end of 2013, this Great Harvest has closed its doors.

For seven years, this storefront sold freshly baked loaves, muffins, scones, and cookies and gave out seemingly unlimited tasting samples. Soon to fill this void is Z’s Bakery and Deli. Thanks for the years of goodies, Great Harvest!
