dinner thursday

I went out to get rotisserie chicken for dinner on Thursday. I really wanted Boston Market but there isn't one close enough.

I went to Starbuck's before going to the grocery store

medium caramel macchiato (grande, grosso)
lemon pound cake

Note: The drink sizes at Starbuck's are short, tall, grande, venti

short = 8 oz
tall = 12 oz
grande = 16 oz
venti = 20 oz

Apparently short is available at most Starbucks but not listed on the menu. Tall makes a lot more sense when there is a short.

Grande means big in Spanish. It means great in Italian. It means great in French. Take your pick.

Venti means 20 in Italian. I guess a zwanzig was not too euphonious.

Dinner

fried chicken (breast, leg)
potato salad
cole slaw
iced tea

The only rotis chicken they had was bourbon flavor. Didn't feel like that. The chicken was huge and quite salty. Generally good flavor but too much salt.
