We're not gonna take it!

I'm looking for a new love, baby

No, I have not found the man I'm going to marry. But just as well is this:

Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Frappuccino® Blended Coffee: A proprietary blend including coffee, pumpkin and traditional holiday spice flavors, blended with ice and topped with whipped cream and pumpkin pie spices

Ever since Starbucks disenfranchised me by dropping their heavenly Mocha Malt Frappuccino, I had lost my main way of imbibing massive quantities of calories in a single sitting (not entirely true, Ben & Jerry's will always be my first and favorite). Well, no longer. Although I know it will only be a seasonal treat, I will make sure to get there early and often to take full advantage while it lasts.

Also, random nugget of the day- Starbucks will be increasing their prices an average of 10 cents per beverage at a small risk of alienating their base clientele. But seeing as how their coffee also contains a higher percentage of caffeine per serving than all other leading brands, their client base would seem to be securely locked in with their ever-growing caffeine addictions.
