Camping Can Do: Make Coffee Anywhere
A few weeks ago Starbucks sent us a sample of VIA, its new instant coffee. Being a bit of a coffee snob I was kind of grossed out but decided to try it on my upcoming climbing trip anyway.

Food Review: Starbucks Perfect Oatmeal
After packing lunch boxes for the girls this morning, I realized there was no time for me to eat breakfast at my kitchen table.

Let me tell you: Those cups are full of more than holiday cheer; some of the drinks pack in an amazing amount of calories and fat into a 16 ounce cup.
