A moment of hilarity from yesterday:
"You guys do have soy milk, right?"
"Yes. I think. Hang on -- HEY. WE HAVE SOY MILK? Okay, yeah, we do."
"Okay, can I have some of that with my coffee?"
"You want it on the side? A little cup or something?"
"Ooh, yes please."
"It'll be cold. I can warm it up. I could put it in the microwave for you. Or steam it. If you want."
"Soy milk doesn't steam very well, I think."
"...huh. You're right, it really doesn't."
(five minutes later)
"We're out of coffee coffee, so I made you an Americano instead, you know, with the espresso and extra water, and if it's too strong or something let me know, I'll make something else. You sure you don't want me to warm the soy milk up?"
I blame Starbucks. Coffee never used to be this confusing.
