Celebrating Starbucks 200 stores and 15 Years in the Philippines with Howard Schultz

We have all been looking forward to this day – for Howard Schultz to come and visit our country.  To all of us, Howard symbolizes not only Starbucks, the great coffee company, but LOVE and HUMANITY which he explains so well in his speech during the opening of the 200th store.  I could listen to this over and over again and get inspired.   I am merely the daughter of Jun and Menchu yet the overflowing love within the Starbucks organization is reaching me and reaching everyone that steps in a Starbucks store.  This is only a 4 minute speech but it is very beautiful and has a very meaningful message from Howard!  These kinds of words can only come from the heart

    Congrats! Have been a long-time follower of your blog. My kids can’t drink coffee yet but they love the food at Starbucks. And they get sad when they are not available anymore. Like the spanish chorizo sandwich offered a few years ago. And most recently, my kids’ most favorite-to-date, the chicken fajita pie which was offered last year. Can you pls pls bring it back? Thanks and more power to your blog:)
