My New Love

I have a new love in my life.  She's beautiful, efficient, and can make me a steaming hot cup of coffee in 30 seconds!  Her name is "K" and I LOVE her!

So I got this wondrous machine as a Christmas present for my wife.  Little did I know that I would fall so madly in love with it!  She originally asked for one for Christmas because she doesn't usually think to make herself a cup of coffee until the very last minute and by that point there is just no time to wait for a pot of coffee to brew.  Our old coffee maker even had a timer with delayed start and all that stuff on it, but that would require prior planning which apparently was beyond our realm of capability.  The other problem with making a pot or even a half a pot of coffee is that we inevitably leave a little bit of coffee in the pot.  Then we forget about it and don't clean it.  2-3 days later you have moldy coffee and grounds in your coffee pot.  Please don't judge us.

In comes the Keurig machine and all its glory!  You simply open the up the mechanism on top and insert a "K Cup"

                             

Close the mechanism and voila!  30 seconds later  you have a single cup on hot coffee!  Throw away the "K Cup" when you are done and all clean up is finished!  Its the best thing ever!  It's also great for simply making hot water for tea!  I have recently also become obsessed with drinking hot tea.  For Christmas Breanne got me a bunch of fancy teas from "Teavana".  It's a good thing we don't have one of these stores in our mall, because it would be quite dangerous for my pocket book.  I don't really like iced tea, but for some reason hot tea seems to hit the spot.  Since we purchased the machine, I approximately consume 3-4 mugs of coffee or tea a day.  I love it!  It's just so darn efficient!

I've always wondered how I could possibly get caffeine into my system quicker, and Keurig has seemed to answer this question!  Thanks K!  You have changed my life!  I know it sounds ridiculous to make such an exclamation about a coffee pot, but its true.  The way that I consume hot beverages has changed forever and I cannot go back.
