Hill That I Am Willing to Die On: Mint ice cream does not taste like toothpaste. (A lifelong argument between my brothers and I).
Go-To Coffee Order: Iced Lavender Oat Milk Latte
Additional Excitement Blurb: I am looking forward to getting to know everyone throughout the course of this summer session, and am already enjoying experimenting with this blog. This course was recommended to me by my INFO 203 professor, and the syllabus captured a lot of what I find most interesting and exciting about library and information science work! My first library assistant position (before my current one) really solidified my passion for user-centered library work, and being able to help patrons at the circulation desk for the past few years has been both challenging and rewarding.
Hi Staci,
I love the format you used to introduce yourself. It’s so fun!
I’ll be buried with you on the hill that mint ice cream is far better than toothpaste. They are two completely different types of minty!
MINT LOVERS UNITE. Tillamook brand Mint Chip is one of my favorites!
Oh my gosh, Staci! I get so sad when Starbucks runs out of the lavender powder and I can no longer order a Iced Lavender Oat Milk Latte. 😭
I just love an herbal/floral flavor, what can I say! There is a coffee shop about a three minute walk from my job that has an excellent lavender latte. They are successfully taking all of my money.
@staciwright hurrah for your rapid fire approach and the cool details you shared. Might go to order at the coffee place is a cup of strong English breakfast tea or for warmer times a giant black iced tea unsweetened with light ice I’m also really appreciating your graphic. I am glad you found your way to this class. Welcome to the hyperlinked library.
My preference is usually for coffee, but I will never deny the comfort of a good cuppa tea! At one of the shops by my work, they currently have an iced black tea flavored with yuzu and mint.
Hello Staci,
Nice to e-meet you! You’re not too far from me, I’m located in Los Angeles. I love when lavender is in season, though it’s always a little sad when it leaves the Starbucks menu. I try to look on the positive side, though, which is that it means we’re closer to August when Pumpkin Spice returns!
I also completely agree with your take on mint chocolate chip ice cream, it’s one of my favorites.
Best of luck in this course!
