best. time. of. the. year.






There are few things in life that get me as happy as the red holiday cups at Starbucks. In the midst of craziness at work, traveling and galavanting around NYC, I just NOW realized that the Red cups are back in action for the Holidays! Oh. Em. Gee!

The red cups not only symbolize cooler temperatures, but also the start of the best season of the year. In the next month and a half, it will be my Mom's birthday, mine (on Thanksgiving!), Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. WOA. That is a lot.

I don't have much else today besides urging everyone to go to their nearest overpriced (but delicious) Starbucks and indulge in a Grande, Non-Fat (but keep the whip, it is the best part, right?) Gingerbread latte.


What symbolizes the start of the Holiday season for you?

Love the red cups! I was of course in line for a red cup chai latte first thing on November 1st!

Niina - It seems pretty obvious. said...

Oh I'm a bit jealous when I see these! We don't have Starbucks over here :/ But I guess a chai latte in a regular cup from some other coffee shop works too....(almost).

And yes I love this time of year...I was browsing through all the Christmas magazines in the supermarket today :)

Have a lovely day! //Niina

I am a big fan of the holiday cups - so festive. I am also a fan of Nordstrom's holding out on holiday decorating until we first celebrate fall!
