Something Funny Happened on the Way to Coffee
I got it on Prime Days at a super discount, and thought it would be just okay.
Back up just a little bit. I normally drink a pot of drip coffee every morning, just nursing the cup while I GET AFTER IT.
When I started staying with my brother, he didn’t have a coffee maker.
I told him I’d go grab one from Wal Mart, or just have Amazon deliver it in the next day or so.
I mean, I can go a weekend without the java. It’s not like an addict or anything.
But my brother being who he is, took his brood of four kids and his girlfriend’s duo out for a day of summer shenanigans and when they came home later that night, he had a Keurig.
He told me he liked coffee too and he needed a new one since his old one stopped working.
After watching him make his coffee, I can safely say he didn’t need a coffee maker because he just adds a drip to his creamer and sugar.
But as for me, I roll through 4 K-pods on most days, and miss the drip.
I have found a couple of bargains that tasted pretty good, but this one I like. Good flavor, despite being a pod.
I hate thinking “good enough” because I’ve spent a lot of time in that mindset where if something is “good enough” I can tolerate it.
I’ll grab a new coffeemaker when I get out on my own in the next few weeks, and get back to drinking a pot of hot brew.
Til then, I’ll see if I can make a bar tale or two from this batch.
Would be really good to make a pot and curl up with:
