Yes - There Really Are Bearistas at Starbucks!

This is a Starbucks Bearista imported from Portland, Oregon... far, far, far away. Let's hope he's ready to brew up a pot of bold coffee! Ethiopian, Sumatra, French Roast?

A fun coffee blog for caffeine fiends (and bold coffee lovers)...

Mackenzie Shieck of the online newspaper, Seattle Post Intelligencer, has a fun blog that deals with her experiences as a former bearista for a major chain of coffee shops... Let's see: Seattle, coffee, bearistas...

Gosh, do you think she could possibly be talking about her days at Starbucks?

Here's the link to her blog, It's Just the Caffeine Talking:
