Here is a dictionary of some coffee terms you may want to familiarize yourself with (these are in Melissa speak..so please bear with me).
Latte: Espresso, lots of steamed milk topped off with some foam (add flavor...it's yum)
Cappuccino: ( you probably won't like this, but I could be wrong) espresso, a wee bit o' steamed milk, and a great lot o' foam. (do NOT complain to me about your drink not having enough milk in it. I will laugh at you. Besides, I probably tried to explain it to you at the cash register.)
Mocha: Espresso, steamed milk, chocolate, whipped cream (it comes in the white variety as well)
Iced lattes and mochas are NOT the same as FROZEN. Iced is OVER ICE. Frozen is BLENDED. duh
Americano: Espresso and hot water (iced is very good..to me)
Espresso: Very concentrated coffee. It's strong. It's small. IT'S MAGNIFICENT.
Coffee: If you don't know what this is, please go to subway.
------- I truly don't mind if you don't know what you want when you come in...I don't mind if you don't know what these drinks are (except for coffee...get a life and then come back to see me), but do NOT get mad at me for giving you what you ORDERED.
I am a patient person. I am.
By the way...I wrote an ode to the loaded baked potato that my boss brought me tonight. It was that good. However Laura said I sounded like I was on drugs...so perhaps I will just keep it to myself.
goodnight.

I know I commented on this on facebook, but I thought I'd mention that it is nice that you tell people what they are ordering.
No one ever did that for me when I was at State. I ended up ordering a latte, and it was gross. It took an unbelievable amount of sugar, and cinnamon to get it to where it was palatable.
