Officer Turner arrived at first and Pike. But wait, before she visited Mr. Wald’s dry cleaners she surly had time for a latte. She pulled her car into Starbuck’s drive thru and ordered a Venti. The drink came with a chocolate covered bean atop the plastic lid. Officer Turner grasped the greasily, glistening bean between her index finger and thumb with dainty precision. It slipped from her fingers and rolled down her freshly dry cleaned uniform.

Chocolate-covered coffee beans was a good money-making and delicious invention, and although teasing to our taste buds, not too good for our health if you happen to be a diabetic or need to watch the amount of caffeine you consume. However, the inventor was a genius knowing most people don't care about this when indulging themselves on these scrumptious chocolate covered coffee beans.

Um, I can’t remember the name. The one on first and Pike, right next to Starbucks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
