As the father of this youtuber, and as a physician, I am learning about "kiss 'em on the lips" service. I wonder if I can provide that in my practice! I might hear from the authorities!
Nice! Does this much personality run in the family? Seems like Ms. Winkler missed her calling as a comedienne. I'd buy tickets to watch her extemporaneously riff on a stage. She is an inspiring woman.
I would add to the Ethiopian conversation that Ethiopia is the birth place of coffee, and is a huge part of the culture. The reason Italy is so associated with coffee is that they tried SO HARD to colonize Ethiopia, but instead they just kinda got a cultural exchange where Italy got coffee and Ethiopia got pasta 😂
yess! i saw something about this on their website. although they actually said something like "coffee MAY have originated in ethiopia..." so i was like DID IT?!?!?! why are they teasing me like this. so thank you for sharing this confirmation! shop.harrarcoffeeroastery.com/pages/our-beans
@@nicoleh5529 I have had real Ethiopian coffee and it is legit! My auntie Maggie is from Ethiopia and will make little cups of it at family gatherings. Toasty, smooth and delish.
ok i intended to use the pointer so much more in this video, but then it turned out my chart was too far away to be viewed by the camera. the logistics of car-pointer really threw me, im sorry
When I was a kid, my whole class was learning how to cut with scissors and I was terrible at it, so the teacher assigned me a special teacher to spend more time with me to learn the way of the scissor. My special scissor teacher noticed that I was left handed forced to use a right handed scissor. They got me a left handed scissor, stepped back, and watched me as I cut my little heart out. 😋 ✂️ I still sucked! I suck to this day! Dont ask me to cut anything with scissors. 😒
Makes me miss my extreme lefty brother even more. He was a single dad and he practically cried when I got him his first pair of left handed scissors. Sis and I always gifted him with tools from the Lefty Store!
I'm half Filipina, and that purple at the top of your latte is called "ube"! It's a purple yam that's commonly eaten in Filipino desserts. Ube ice cream is insanely delicious and will make your mouth demon-coloured, but it's worth it
Good looking out! I noticed that too, and wondered why they were calling it Vietnamese. Ube is very popular here on the West Coast - Trader Joe's even carries Ube products here. Perhaps not as well known in the rest of the U.S. We have Ube everything here in L.A. I'm off to Jollibee now...
I vote that this style of video becomes a series on this channel. DC has so many amazing coffee shops, bars, restaurants, etc. - it gives you an excuse to leave the house and us an excuse to watch you judge more things. Everyone would be happy. (Also, as someone who's from DC originally and comes back every year to see friends and family, I selfishly want to see what's considered cool and quality now around town.)
Caroline! I live near DuPont and, as a seasoned barista, I absolutely must recommend DUA DC. It's a women-owned Indonesia coffee shop by McPherson Square, has IMMACULATE vibes, the nicest staff I've ever encountered, high quality coffee, gorgeous interior (the MUGS), fantastic treats, and the people watching is 10/10. Plus there's window seating so you can people watch those walking by as well as those coming in! I don't think I've used their bathroom though so you'll have to check that out when you go lol
Enthusiastically odering what they tell you about immediately despite not knowing what it is and just accepting the wrong cake in a coffee shop that made you feel like an idiot is extremely relatable content.
“New day new bandaids” 😂 I just love seeing the relationship between you and Justin! You can tell the way he looks at you how captivated he is by you. As a NOVA resident I really appreciate this coffee shop review!! Your content is always fire. Love you so much- you always make me laugh!
Extra points if the outlets are not just for high top seating ! Lol i don’t always need an outlet but if I’m going to do work I will sit by the best outlet just in case
Ethiopia is where the coffee plant originated! Specifically the arabica coffee bean, which is a smoother milder blend versus the other species of coffee, Robusta. Ethiopian coffee is special because it's coffee grown in its natural environment and is also a precious and historical industry to the Ethiopians.
Caroline, I would watch you judge literally anything - you may have no coffee credentials, but every single opinion I've ever heard from you has been insightful
Can you plz do a fashion/outfit video? i.e. your fav outfits, accessories, idk shoes, go to places to shop? Know it's not your main self proclaimed expertise BUT every video I see your outfits and think: "cute, cute, loving the color, cute." Plz share!
i can't tell you how good that makes me feel bc it's so not what i consider a strong suit. ive actually received a lot of flack for my wardrobe for decades! but i will consider it!
@@Caroline_WinklerI think in your podcast you mentioned how you’ve learned to dress to flatter your own body and that’s stuck with me. I’d love a video on fashion and how to dress for yourself and not care so much about what people think.
Why am I watching this, I don't drink coffee and have no reason to believe I'll be in DC ever, but still watched from beginning to end😅 apparently Caroline is now in my "do anything and I'll watch it" category
the judgement scale, I am a seasoned judger, the commentary on the shoes, the elderly and dying, new day new bandaids, the voices the LAUGH I have never wanted to sit in a coffee shop but love this video chefs kiss. Your humor is delightful.
Caroline! I would like to say hello and tell you that, despite the fact that I have 18 years on you👵🏼, and we have (almost) nothing in common, I have watched you since almost the beginning and enjoy how very much you remind me of my closest fam growing up-my cousins-and I love love LOVE the way you vlog and the way you use 🎶music despite it being copyrighted (tried this with my own channel however and the algorithm suppressed me😂🤷🏻♀️) Anyhow thank you for the influence you have had on my YT channel and for consistently making me laugh and think about things from the past that had previously slipped my mind. You’re a DOLL and I’m always praying for your happiness and peace…🙏🏻✨ Take care, lady!!! 🫶🏻Temmah✨
what a magnificently thoughtful message! I love love love that there has been a point of connection despite an age gap -- that's actually what i hope for! also i really appreciate your handle :) sending you a very big hug. and thank you
She uses a copyright licensing service I believe called lickd (though there are others too) where you pay monthly and then are allowed to use copyrighted songs they have licenses for and still monetize her videos. If you seriously want that you can try it yourself too. Though if your channel is small and unmonetized like mine, using a song that's allowed but not allowed to monetize might still be better.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Would love more of these types of videos. Your commentary is appreciated. And great way to be introduced to new places to visit~ *Also great way to support local businesses that aren't just corporate franchises we are all familiar with* 👍
i'm so glad! ill tell you what - this video felt like a COMPLETE risk. i havent done one like it, but ive really wanted to try something new and get OUT OF MY APARTMENT. it'll be TBD to see if people enjoy the video long term, but what i know for sure is that i loved making it and id love to do more similar
Caroline- this is a fun way to explore the city! DC still has so many independent shops, I'd love for you to pick another interest and continue to explore!
IDK if you changed your hairstyle but your hair looks so beautiful! Also, I love that you are judging bathrooms, I swear we need someone who speaks up about the state of the ladies room! 😂
This video is everything about why I love watching anything you make Caroline! From the design critiques, the vibes, gems like “but I am a seasoned judger” and “new day, new band-aides” and the return of the retractable, flexible police stick! I love it all. Keep doing what you’re doing and I’ll keep watching!!
Who else fist pumped the air for the return of the retractable baton? I literally bro-screamed YESSSS!!! when I saw the passenger seat explainer chart.
OMG OMG,I feel EXACT!Y the same about upholstered furniture in public places. I refuse to go to the movie theater🙄 I feel very validated right now THANK YOU CAROLINE 💕
i knowww. i feel like im the minority here. but i can be ok with upholstered if it's been updated within like...10 years??? beyond that does make me pause
You and justin are so effing cute, loved him on the podcast too. He balances you out but has that same analytic honest hater energy. Just from the pod/videos, i can see why it’s a match ❤️
This video made my whole day. LOVED seeing Justin again, he makes my face ache from grinning like the big soppy dope that I am. But on a more serious note, I've just moved to Montpellier (south of France) after living in Paris for 10 years and I have zero friends to go to coffee shops with. So this video has inspired me to go and check out my local cafés on my own and do your scoring scale for my own amusement. Merci Caroline!
I was so relieved to see the different outfits. Thinking about you having 6 coffees in a morning was making ME jittery. Also, I hope your parents are proud. Your video concepts seem so simple but I don't want to miss a moment, mostly because you're charming as heck and genuinely funny. Thank you, Caroline for spreading your sunshine!
I've never in my whole life of 73 years drank coffee - but, this is one of my most favorite videos you've done. I've hung out in many coffee shops to sit and write and have a snack and just a space away where I can feel like I'm at least in some kind of community. I love the smell of coffee but didn't drink it bc I didn't want to be an adult.🤪 So, I have water no ice and usually coffee cake, lemon poundcake or a cookie. If I'm hungry, I'll have a toasted bagel with the works. I'd love to see more videos like this. I like seeing what you wore each day too and your comment about the killer shoes that wouldn't let your toes relax.
Another great video, I mean, the pointer and cameo by Justin, what's not to love?! I think a follow up video of how you would design a coffee shop might be fun 🤎
Maybe Caroline will go there for her honeymoon. Maybe you could send her information on a nice place to stay. I don't know why...where you live sounds so awesome.
It’s nighttime on the east coast and my favorite TH-camr posted about COFFEE SHOPS ALSO ONE IF MY FAVORITE THINGS. Do I wait until morning to drink coffee and watch or watch now? WHY IS LIFE SO HARD🤧 I’ll watch now.
dying over how EMPTY that tatte was. i’ve never seen that location so peaceful. tatte is probably the thing i miss most about dc (a cashier told me last november that they’re expanding to nyc soon, but they haven’t publicly announced anything…). anyway, great little treats, and the best chai lattes ever. out of all the nyc cafes i’ve been to, i haven’t found any that have chai lattes similar to tatte’s 😭
truly never in my life have i seen it that empty haha. i used to go all the time but kind of got scared away by the crowds. maybe i just need to adjust my hours!
Thank you for explaining why I feel so ridiculous for standing in lines 🤣 I thought I was the only one. You are always able to articulate all these feelings so beautifully.
I am so glad you did a coffee shop critique. My husband and I own a coffee shop which is also inside our hardware store which was established in 1904. I also love local coffee shops too and there is a little bit of a ‘tude’ some baristas cop when this gramma shows up. But I know what I’m talking about out. The sign outside our shop says 1901, but no it was 1904)) and the latte shop inside , “The Bean Counter” was opened in 2000. One of the things people seem to like about it is that it is a surprise to see. Locals love it because our coffee is good. Now I have an idea of what categories we can work on, thanks to your insightful and correct judgement. Wish you could come here (but we’re way the hell and gone across the country from you) and critique us. We would send you to The Baker’s Table bakery just up the street for treats. We support other businesses in our little PNW village. BTW-your y2 videos are so well edited! Flawless!
oh my gosh a shop inside the hardware shop - that sounds incredibly endearing. i love the concept and hearing the history. it sounds like such a colorful neighborhood spot!
Your brain and humor are just wonderful. Nice dresses. You've been attractive since I started watching you but your intelligence and humor an overall personality make you downright beautiful.
I love finding and visiting coffee shops in my town, it’s a bit of a hobby. Most places aren’t quite as nice as the ones in this video but I have had great coffee and met some amazing people. Awesome video!
waiiiit, so as a native Restonite who dreads the city, I need to know how you’re driving in DC! like the roads are crazy, the diagonals, the parallel parking. I am in awe 😂 once my battery died after taking my mom to mass at the Basilica and I was trapped in a parallel spot, in a one way and literally ended up asking people on the street to jump my battery 😅 maybe it’s the trauma, but really driving in DC is noooo joke.
you just have to accept that you’re playing the same video game, just a few levels higher difficulty than you’re used to lol. my advice is to stay alert, at night just assume any given driver is drunk, and accept that people driving 10+ years in dc still suffer from the same things you’re experiencing
You help me to learn English better🙃 especially because your sense of humour is the same as mine. You are teaching me to be fun again (long story of serial immigrations, 4 languages, not good in any anymore🤪). Thanks! Love all your videos starting from Ohio💪
After visiting my parents, I once drove 10 miles past my exit for my apartment on the freeway and kept going to where I used to go to college and work. Talk about “what were you thinking?” I totally relate to thinking about Things, but not the relevant thing.
Love the blue and white dress❤😂. And I have a great coffee shop in my area the ceiling looks like outdoor! Just like sitting in the sun and enjoying the woods- great service and coffee!
I kept checking the time left to prepare myself as I didn’t want this to end! Going on a coffee crawl with you would be an absolute blast. Also, have to say your hair is looking so healthy & glam 😍 serious hair envy here.
Girl you crack me up! It’s funny how I’m always watching your videos and quoting you like we’re friends and for some reason I think you’re going to be one of my emergency contacts lol. Whenever I’m having a bad day me and my mom put one of your videos on and immediately cheer up. Love seeing you shine and being happy! I also wanted to add that you’ve helped and inspired me so much in so many ways. I’m going into my first year of college for interior design and you were one of the biggest impacts for my decision. I’ve learned a lot from you. Sorry I know this was kinda a long comment lol. Sending love💗😁
cafe rec that’s unlike any other in DC: big bear cafe 🩵 old building, outdoor seating on cobblestones with grapevines everywhere, the best people watching, I literally hear more languages there than anywhere else bc it attracts europeans bc the cafe feels european (myself included, dual citizen), great bird watching bc they want your crumbs, great dog watching, great for stealing fresh mint because they grow produce outside and the mint THRIVES, activities and live music during the week, and remember to check out the upstairs (where you’ll also find the cool bathroom) which is cozy as all get out. also in the winter they put little fires outside, and I will never forget the time I sat around the fire next to a stranger in silence during a light hail storm while everyone in the world was home staying warm listening to the ice hit the tarp above us while he read his book and I watched the steam rise from our drinks. it’s just a nice place to be.
Loved it. Field trip(s)!! You need to go back and design the basement coffee shop. 🏆🏆🏆 I think we all needed help packing up our shit from school. Your mom sounds like a saint for lining up the helper. Great work mom. ❤❤❤
@@leonore3349 A natural part of my personality is to be a critic. I always want to improve everything, service, and system I encounter. Most of the time it is an internal dialogue I keep to myself, and I try not to do this to humans. I am the hardest critic of myself.
i really don’t care the contets, i just want to watch you, ur reaction to daily/normal things & ofcourse ur natural sense of humor, it’s a gift! Thank you for being you 🤌🏼
I neeeed a DC review series! I’m always looking for new places to go and I actually trust your opinion on most things lol I appreciated the criteria here
Whenever I need some girl time and my girls aren't available, I find a Caroline video I haven't watched. I enjoyed drinking my homemade matcha, whilst watching you be you! Love you Caroline!
As the father of this youtuber, and as a physician, I am learning about "kiss 'em on the lips" service. I wonder if I can provide that in my practice! I might hear from the authorities!

I really appreciate this comment!!! I'd wondered why my favorite Ethiopian restaurant also has Italian dishes 😂
@@nicoleh5529 I have had real Ethiopian coffee and it is legit! My auntie Maggie is from Ethiopia and will make little cups of it at family gatherings. Toasty, smooth and delish.
There's a lot of debate around this but coffee likely originated in Yemen. But obviously Ethiopian influenced coffee hugely.
Im just so happy the pointer is back. And in the car, extra fun!
That pointer in the car made me laugh out loud ;)
ok i intended to use the pointer so much more in this video, but then it turned out my chart was too far away to be viewed by the camera. the logistics of car-pointer really threw me, im sorry
@@Caroline_Winkler don't be it's marvelous 😊 and this pixelated blur
Saaaaameeee 😂 I loved the pointer! 😂🥰
I love that the pointer is actually a defense weapon used by the police. Or at least looks very similar to those.
“I can’t sell them anyway cuz they’re bloody…” pure Caroline poetry.
When I was a kid, my whole class was learning how to cut with scissors and I was terrible at it, so the teacher assigned me a special teacher to spend more time with me to learn the way of the scissor.
My special scissor teacher noticed that I was left handed forced to use a right handed scissor. They got me a left handed scissor, stepped back, and watched me as I cut my little heart out. 😋 ✂️
I still sucked! I suck to this day!
Dont ask me to cut anything with scissors. 😒
possibly the most precious story ever shared in comments
I rarely comment but your comment is just about my favorite EVER 🌷😘
Scrapbooking anyone?
The Way of the Scissor.
Makes me miss my extreme lefty brother even more. He was a single dad and he practically cried when I got him his first pair of left handed scissors. Sis and I always gifted him with tools from the Lefty Store!
I'm half Filipina, and that purple at the top of your latte is called "ube"! It's a purple yam that's commonly eaten in Filipino desserts. Ube ice cream is insanely delicious and will make your mouth demon-coloured, but it's worth it

"full blown Predator" 🤣
Going to DC at the end of the month, and this is the guide I needed. Thank you ☕
I audibly laughed
When I thought this video CANNOT get better, your boyfriend makes an appearance. 10 out of 10 stars content!
I lived in most of those neighborhoods 30 yrs ago and not much has changed. I really miss DC!

dying over how EMPTY that tatte was. i’ve never seen that location so peaceful. tatte is probably the thing i miss most about dc (a cashier told me last november that they’re expanding to nyc soon, but they haven’t publicly announced anything…). anyway, great little treats, and the best chai lattes ever. out of all the nyc cafes i’ve been to, i haven’t found any that have chai lattes similar to tatte’s 😭
truly never in my life have i seen it that empty haha. i used to go all the time but kind of got scared away by the crowds. maybe i just need to adjust my hours!
@@Caroline_Winkler probably fair weather had to do with it. Lots of people going out instead of staying indoors
I met my husband in a coffee shop & had him hooked on the chai lattes I made there. I used soy milk, I think it made a better chai latte.
And don't forget the cinnamon & nutmeg sprinkle
Thank you for explaining why I feel so ridiculous for standing in lines 🤣 I thought I was the only one. You are always able to articulate all these feelings so beautifully.
I am so glad you did a coffee shop critique. My husband and I own a coffee shop which is also inside our hardware store which was established in 1904. I also love local coffee shops too and there is a little bit of a ‘tude’ some baristas cop when this gramma shows up. But I know what I’m talking about out.
The sign outside our shop says 1901, but no it was 1904)) and the latte shop inside , “The Bean Counter” was opened in 2000. One of the things people seem to like about it is that it is a surprise to see. Locals love it because our coffee is good.
Now I have an idea of what categories we can work on, thanks to your insightful and correct judgement. Wish you could come here (but we’re way the hell and gone across the country from you) and critique us.
We would send you to The Baker’s Table bakery just up the street for treats. We support other businesses in our little PNW village.
BTW-your y2 videos are so well edited! Flawless!
oh my gosh a shop inside the hardware shop - that sounds incredibly endearing. i love the concept and hearing the history. it sounds like such a colorful neighborhood spot!
Are you anywhere near Portland, Oregon? Your cafe sounds so cute!
@@victoriaoliver9958 Getting warmer!! Garfield County, Washington State.
Where’s your fave Portland coffee joint? I don’t venture out to Portland often but would be good to know for my June trip through there.
@@cecemeyers6028 I love St. Honoré Bakery. It’s very Parisian. The treats are amazing!!
I will likely never go to any of these places and don’t live in DC, but I absolutely needed this video. Top marks, Winkler-
Your brain and humor are just wonderful. Nice dresses. You've been attractive since I started watching you but your intelligence and humor an overall personality make you downright beautiful.
doh! thank you!
thank you for talking about service industry compassion 💗
I love finding and visiting coffee shops in my town, it’s a bit of a hobby. Most places aren’t quite as nice as the ones in this video but I have had great coffee and met some amazing people. Awesome video!
waiiiit, so as a native Restonite who dreads the city, I need to know how you’re driving in DC! like the roads are crazy, the diagonals, the parallel parking. I am in awe 😂 once my battery died after taking my mom to mass at the Basilica and I was trapped in a parallel spot, in a one way and literally ended up asking people on the street to jump my battery 😅 maybe it’s the trauma, but really driving in DC is noooo joke.
you just have to accept that you’re playing the same video game, just a few levels higher difficulty than you’re used to lol. my advice is to stay alert, at night just assume any given driver is drunk, and accept that people driving 10+ years in dc still suffer from the same things you’re experiencing
Justin is so sweet. I hope he won't end to be a serial killer or something and you guys live happily ever after❤
Oh my goodness, your collection of dresses in this video is so sweet and summer-y!
You are the funniest person on the entirety of youtube. I am *delighted*.
Love how that guy across the street turned around while you struck that pose in that (smashing) outfit 😊
I don’t drink coffee, of any sort, but something about seeing a new video posted by Caroline is just so gravitating 😌
You help me to learn English better🙃 especially because your sense of humour is the same as mine. You are teaching me to be fun again (long story of serial immigrations, 4 languages, not good in any anymore🤪). Thanks! Love all your videos starting from Ohio💪
"How to be an adult in relationships" is a great book! His other book, "How to be an adult" is also great!
im only a little ways through it but i kept hearing it recommended, so glad to hear you liked it!
@@Caroline_Winkler Would you consider doing a review of the book 📖 if you find it helpful to you? Thanks ❤😊
THE POINTER IN THE CAR HAHAHA I LOVE THAT
I don’t drink coffee and I doubt I’ll be in DC soon, but you entertained the hell out of me with this one. I LOVE your humor.
Love when my companion says "you need to check out the bathroom"¡
😂
Feet covered in bandaids is so real life 😂🎉
After visiting my parents, I once drove 10 miles past my exit for my apartment on the freeway and kept going to where I used to go to college and work. Talk about “what were you thinking?” I totally relate to thinking about Things, but not the relevant thing.
Love the blue and white dress❤😂. And I have a great coffee shop in my area the ceiling looks like outdoor! Just like sitting in the sun and enjoying the woods- great service and coffee!
Omg I LOVE the bunny wallpaper in that first bathroom😻🙀
I kept checking the time left to prepare myself as I didn’t want this to end! Going on a coffee crawl with you would be an absolute blast. Also, have to say your hair is looking so healthy & glam 😍 serious hair envy here.
Your videos make me smile. That's all.
Girl you crack me up! It’s funny how I’m always watching your videos and quoting you like we’re friends and for some reason I think you’re going to be one of my emergency contacts lol. Whenever I’m having a bad day me and my mom put one of your videos on and immediately cheer up. Love seeing you shine and being happy! I also wanted to add that you’ve helped and inspired me so much in so many ways. I’m going into my first year of college for interior design and you were one of the biggest impacts for my decision. I’ve learned a lot from you. Sorry I know this was kinda a long comment lol. Sending love💗😁
cafe rec that’s unlike any other in DC: big bear cafe 🩵 old building, outdoor seating on cobblestones with grapevines everywhere, the best people watching, I literally hear more languages there than anywhere else bc it attracts europeans bc the cafe feels european (myself included, dual citizen), great bird watching bc they want your crumbs, great dog watching, great for stealing fresh mint because they grow produce outside and the mint THRIVES, activities and live music during the week, and remember to check out the upstairs (where you’ll also find the cool bathroom) which is cozy as all get out.
also in the winter they put little fires outside, and I will never forget the time I sat around the fire next to a stranger in silence during a light hail storm while everyone in the world was home staying warm listening to the ice hit the tarp above us while he read his book and I watched the steam rise from our drinks. it’s just a nice place to be.
That’s the most entertaining thing I’ve watched this week.
Loved it. Field trip(s)!! You need to go back and design the basement coffee shop.
🏆🏆🏆
I think we all needed help packing up our shit from school. Your mom sounds like a saint for lining up the helper. Great work mom. ❤❤❤
It is now a fact: I love everything you do
GOD YES!
More of this please girl. I live for this.
On caroline, you make me so happy! 😭 the things you say, so clever and cynical but yet inspirationally funny just made my day! I love you girl! 😂❤🫶🏽🤗
I loved this! But you need to do this again and bring your sister Liz along with you- cause I think she would have some strong opinions :)
Today is my birthday, it's been sh*tty... this video is just what i needed- thank you
God I wish I could give you a hug. I hate birthdays. You’re not alone. Happy birthday. You seem wonderful ❤
the exact motivation I needed to drink coffee at 9pm
I am feeling some serious fellow Virgo energy here. This is me in literally every coffee shop, cafe, restaurant, business, building I enter.
fellow virgo
What's Virgo energy in this case?
@@leonore3349 A natural part of my personality is to be a critic. I always want to improve everything, service, and system I encounter. Most of the time it is an internal dialogue I keep to myself, and I try not to do this to humans. I am the hardest critic of myself.
@@justusjusticegreen OK, I identify, but I'm a Libra.
@@leonore3349you are ruled by Venus so that tracks.
Love the DC content, telling me all the coffee shops to frequent!
i really don’t care the contets, i just want to watch you, ur reaction to daily/normal things & ofcourse ur natural sense of humor, it’s a gift! Thank you for being you 🤌🏼
Please tell us who makes that gorgeous “Brooklyn” jumpsuit! It looks great on you.
LOVED your blue & White toile dress! Purple-on-the-top latté smacks of taro root topper to me!
please please please let this become a series!!!
Yessssss I LOVE harrar!!! It’s like a 10 min walk from my house and it’s the best chai latte I’ve ever had. We also buy their beans all the time.
I neeeed a DC review series! I’m always looking for new places to go and I actually trust your opinion on most things lol I appreciated the criteria here
First, this might be the best assessment ever, much overdo and very much needed. Second, Blue Bottle in Union Station (of all places) is amazing.
I'm also a seasoned judger. That's why I love Caroline ❤️
Love this style of video from you. Also love coffee and judging coffee shops. What a win!
It’s great to see Justin
I absolutely love it when you bring out the schematic and periscope pointer. Obsessed.
Whenever I need some girl time and my girls aren't available, I find a Caroline video I haven't watched. I enjoyed drinking my homemade matcha, whilst watching you be you! Love you Caroline!
Love the energy.
‘These are just my opinions….la la laaaaa’
‘There are nuts in here….fascinating’
💗💗💗
ThAT blue and white dress is just 👌 absolutely STUNNING!
