Disappointment

In an attempt to banish the blahs, I decided to stop at Baskin-Robbins on my way home from Bible study.  I really like B-R's Mocha Cappuccino Blast and I hadn't had one in awhile.

What a disappointment!

I really wasn't paying attention while the girl was making the drink, but I did notice that she almost forgot to add the scoop of vanilla ice cream to the blender.  If I hadn't seen her plop the ice cream in the blender pitcher at the last minute, I would have thought that she had omitted it. 

When she handed me the Blast, I could tell the texture was off (definitely not as thick as usual) but I didn't taste the drink until I had walked to my car.

The taste confirmed what my eyes had suspected -- the drink was so thin and watery it was almost like drinking weak chocolate milk.  : /  I was tempted to go back inside and, in a nice way, express my disappointment with my drink.  But I didn't.  The owner was also working in the store and I was afraid that the girl might get in trouble.  It's not like the drink was inedible; it just wasn't as thick/slushy as it's supposed to be.

So, I sucked it up -- my disappointment and the drink -- and drove home.
