Babyccino

Ben loves going for coffee with me.  Of course that is because there is usually a treat in it for him, to keep him amused while I enjoy my drink.  Ben knows the Starbucks logo and can spot it from a mile away.  He is also quickly becoming familiar with Costa, which is also common in these parts.

It recently came to my attention that Costa sells a drink called "babyccino," which is basically warm milk with lots of froth on top.  I suggested that Ben try this and he wasn't too sure.  Yesterday we stopped at Costa for a drink and I ordered him one.  It comes in a small but "real" cup - very grown up.  At first he thought it was too hot, but after I added chocolate from the shaker and a straw, he became more interested and slurped it down.  This morning we had to stop in at the big grocery store in town, which has a Starbucks cafe.  Ben had a babyccino again and this time liked it even better - must be an acquired taste!  

On the drive home, I asked whether he like Starbucks or Costa better.  His answer?  "Oregon Dairy in Brownstown!"
