Toasty Gesture

The Nielsons wouldn't drink it, but it was sure nice of Starbuck's to donate it. If you refrain from this warm beverage for religious reasons, you could use the grounds in a sachet, facial scrub, and they make a fantastic garden fertilizer. Plus you can put anything from hot chocolate to pero in the roomy mugs.
