Happy New Year! 2020!

May 2020 be filled with love, laughter, and more coffee than you could ever have imagined would be necessary.

The Largest Starbucks in the World Opens in My Sweet Home, Chicago

May the lines hold far fewer that 1000 people, and may you not have too many days when the amount of coffee you need to get yourself through the day requires 35,000 square feet of space.

Happy New Year! 2020!

This content was not solicited by anyone, nor was it written in exchange for anything, even though, considering that the money I’ve spent at Starbucks in my lifetime is probably enough to buy a modest home, you’d think they’d’ve offered me a day where the store would be open only to me, like when the Queen goes to Herod’s. This location was formerly my favorite Crate and Barrel, and considering the amount of money that I spent in there, you’d think the new lease would’ve required Starbucks to grant me VIP access. Alas no. I vow not to let these things prevent me from living my best life in the coming year.

  1. As always I love your disclaimers. Have a safe and fun New Years Eve and a most wondrous first year of this new decade.
    FYI, I’ll be keeping the opening of the new Starbucks under my hat else my better half would be on the first flight to Chicago.

    1. Happy New Year to you, too. If I do brave the lines, I’ll at least tell you if it’s anybgood.

  2. Now that’s a lot of coffee! Sitting down with my coffee is definitely a highlight each day. I even sometimes look forward to it the night before. 🙂 Wishing you and yours a very happy new year!! Looking forward to many more of your delicious recipes. ~Valentina

  3. Sounds like my kind of place! My husband and I want to visit Chicago in the near future. We will have to put this on our list of places to visit. Thank you!!!

    1. Happy 2020 to you, too! I haven’t been to this new Starbucks yet, but I have a feeling that my local neighborhood Starbucks will continue to be my go-to.

  6. Hey Jeff, Happy New Year! I’m just catching up and read that “disclaimer” under the picture of the largest Starbucks in the World. It made me laugh. Cheers! I’m happy to write to Starbucks and state your case for VIP access to Starbucks!

  7. A five-floor Starbucks?!!! That would simply overwhelm me, and I’d walk out without having bought a single thing. But you just enjoy the heck out of it, Jeff! Wishing you a wonderful 2020.

  8. Interesting! I was just in Chicago this weekend and we walked by this Starbuck several times. The line was extremely long every time so we just passed it by. But next time when we are there, we will need to check it out.

  9. Dear Jeff, wishing you and your family all the very best for a Happy & Healthy New Year!!!
    Looking forward to many inspirational and delightful posts and delicious recipes of yours in 2020!!!

  10. HAppy New Year Jeff!! Amazing news for Starbucks!! Its a mega phenomenon with these coffee shops around the world. Now Godiva Cafes and Lavazza is on the trail !!

    xo

  11. Hope life will get to normal soon! Happy New Year of 2022 everyone!
