From the Elliptical
April 21st, 2006
Starbucks = Fat City. For some of us.
Let’s face it, we love us some coffee treats, and we’re okay with that. But there are many temptations in the mass-produced pastry case. In fact, while in the dreaded ‘backwards’ mode on our favorite machine, Angela revealed that she suspected a previous Starbucks muffin habit was what landed her on the damn elliptical in the first place.
Today I found myself at a Starbucks in Newport Beach, where three of the women in line ahead of me had clearly not eaten since the 90s. While I eyed the orange frosted cupcake, they all ordered their liquid, nonfat breakfast/lunch/dinner and sauntered out into the sun obscured by freakishly large sunglasses.
Potayto, potahto.
