My search for mints has led me to Starbucks, and disappointment :(
I was hoping to find the gum in the little tin can, but alas — my endeavors were in vain.

Reminder
This is just a reminder to myself, please feel free to ignore it. I need to take photos more often. It’s the only way I’m going to get better.
