The Luxury of Lattes

I love lattes. But only perfect lattes. And the perfection of a cafe's latte upon first sip is indicative of whether I will return and bless that cafe with my company again. Thus I am endlessly searching for the perfect latte. Unfortunately I have had to put this extensive research on hold as I have been thrown into something of a real world where an individual, such as myself, cannot afford the luxury of lattes. This situation, although dire, is acceptable for the moment with the replacement of “strong, black, not dunkin’ donuts, coffee”. Occasionally cream is justified. For now I can survive and judge a cafe based on the blend of coffee they serve; and I’ve found it is actually rather nice when your luxury is a latte...
