Iced Coffee

My God. I love Costa Coffee. Seeing as I'm having a personal economic crisis at the moment, I've had to cut back on my spending and every time I get off the bus to work there's a Costa Coffee opposite me :C It's way too warm at the moment for a Cinnamon Latte so I've been slurping Mocha Frappuccinos when I've had the pennies. 

Asda recently had the Starbucks bottled frappuccino on sale at £1 a bottle and I think I ended up buying about 10. I had plenty of trouble carrying them all back to the fridge. They're pretty good, obviously not as good as the instore freshly made ones, but great for a chilled caffeine hit. But, somehow I can't seem to force myself into buying one at the full price of £1.68. :/ 

Nescafé Cool. What the heck are these things? I wandered into B & N Bargains the other day with Laura and spotted 20 sachets of these for 75p and snatched them up thinking they looked pretty nice. I opened up the bag when we got back to find all the instructions in an unrecognisable language. So I just added milk and hoped for the best. They're alright I guess. Nothing amazing, but I could be doing it wrong somehow. They just taste like sweet milk, I couldn't detect much coffee and it didn't dissolve very well. Any ideas?

29.10.10 - Broadmarsh Shopping Center 2.

Magic Corn & Muffin Break. Broadmarsh Shopping Centre, Nottingham.

Five hours after the first cup of corn, the munchies started to set in again after a long day of shopping. So I managed to persuade Peri to come back to the Magic Corn stand so I could have some plain with a little extra butter, which was really good. I still missed the cracked black pepper but the whole idea of a cup of corn for a snack is something I'm very okay with.

Magic Corn - £1.50.
Mocha Frappe - £2.79(? I don't really remember)

We had a little time to kill so we had a sit down in Muffin Break while we waited. So I ordered one of my all time favourite drinks, a mocha frappe. Quite a lot of these I've had before have been quite watered down and not very chocolatey. This was fantastic, it tasted like the cappuccino truffles you can buy from Thorntons. Really chocolatey with the right amount of coffee, it was amazing. When she asked me if I wanted cream on top I had a little panic and said yes, but there was too much of it for my taste. Other than that it was great. <3

Cheesecake - £3.00(?)

Peri had a hot chocolate and a slice of cheesecake of unknown origin. We had no idea what flavour it was supposed to be, because the sign simply said cheesecake so I couldn't have any in case it had nuts in it. Peri, being a lover of cheesecake told me it was really fluffy and light. The base wasn't great and we had NO idea what the while middle was supposed to be. It was really rich so she only finished a few forkfuls of it.

We had food and a show because the people to our side got stuck in a lift.
