I only drink hot chocolate, but Starbucks Hot Chocolate is disgusting. So, I never go there. I love Second Cup!

That means that it is not so bad if there isn't Starbucks here?! I love hot chocolate...actually, I love chocolate! One of the worst aspects of Spring and Summer is that you can't have a cup of hot chocolate...and there are some places here where it is made delicious!

I think Starbucks is overrated. I don't really like their coffee. But I do like their caramel apple cider. yum. oh, and my all time favorite hot chocolate is Tim Horton's - it's like pure liquid chocolate.

I love Tim Horton's!! I was kinda sad that it was sold to an American owner, because it's not only a Canadian thing anymore...

I still think of Tim Horton's as Canadian. I don't think it's invaded very far into the US yet. My friends have this rule that whenever they go to Canada (we're only about 45 minutes form the border, so it's fairly often) they stop at every Tim Horton's along the way. I'm not sure if they actually do it though. That would be a loooong trip.

We have a Tim Horton's in my city now. It just came this summer, but I haven't been to it yet since it's on the opposite side of town. It's over by campus, as it should be, because many university students would use it more than anyone else. There's also one I've been to about 2 hours south of me, in Springfield where some of my family lives. But yeah, it hasn't really spread a lot of places yet.

I always have big oversized bags, and carry at least one book inside of it. When I get towards the end of a book I always carry a second. I sit in a corner of my room that I have all done up and cozy for when I read. I like to be super comfy. I also like to go to the park and sit by the water. It's a half hour or so out my way, but it is worth it.

I read lying down on the big bed in my room that I don't use. Sometimes, I read at my desk, but very rarely.

But I read in a lot of different places also. Like most of you I also carry a book with me, so I can read in public transport, between classes or in the park.

I think people here in Canada will be upset to know the Tim Hortons is expanding. People love the fact that its Canadian (or at least was). Its kind of an institution here. I personally don't care because their coffee makes me want to gag and the coffee cups still let my hands burn ouch.

TIm Hortons really needs to get the extra cardboard for the cups...I really love their Hot Chocolate and roll up the rim!

I think the roll up the rim game needs to come to the US. I see the commercials for it, but then I realize that it's only in Canada (Detroit has both audiences, so we get some Canadian commercials, too). But you Canadians might disagree.
