I defected from Starbucks to Coffeebean for the first time in months. =p

For those not in the know, I used to drink only Coffeebean and had my first Starbucks only last year. So today I thought, "Maybe I'll give Coffeebean a shot after so many months..."

Was contemplating between the beans or the bucks at Bangsar Village II on the escalator down when suddenly, Coffeebean's signboard looms up.

The escalator was located right in front of Coffeebean and its lovely aroma!
What else am I to decided upon when its just right in front of me?!

I order one ice-blended chocolate and plop down on their comfy couches for a minute before hustling off to where I'm supposed to be. Oh, and I almost never ever order hot coffee. Its always an ice-blended something. More often than not, its an ice-blended choc. =)

Coffeebean is a bit more expensive than Starbucks, but its slightly bigger. Beans whipped cream seems softer than Bucks, but I find 2 lumps of unblended ice in the first 2 sips I take, which doesn't happen when I drink Starbucks. I seem to taste the powdery base in Beans. Beans ice-blended melts to pure liquid by less than an hour. Me no likey this part! Somehow I feel Starbucks seem to remain as ice-blended longer.

Anyway, the reason why I defected was because the last time I had a choc frappe from Starbucks, it came out on the tasteless and un-chocolatey side which got me annoyed.

Verdict : I think my next ice-blended choc will be from Starbucks. Or I might sample San Fran's or GloriaJeans if I come across them.

Btw, don't you think I deserve a round of applause for not eating McD's today?

This is such a random frog-jumping post about food.
Speaking about frogs...

Recently, I temporarily changed my old pencilbox to a pencilbox with a frog's head with hands and legs. Various people have been grabbing my pencilbox and playing with its Velcro-attached hands and sticking 'em in funny funny poses. Poor pitiful molested froggy, what torments you must have suffered at all of their hands...

What someone said to me about froggy...

Friend : You know, if you keep on kissing your frog, one day it might actually turn into your Prince Charming!
Me : Dot dot dot...

Errr...thanks for that advice, but I'm not that desperate to resort to kissing my pencilbox! =p
