Not Your Average Cup of Joe


I fell hard and fast for the Keurig single cup coffee/tea maker. I discovered it at a friend’s house and I was amazed with the ease of making fresh coffee on the fly. The word “keurig” is Dutch for excellence and I must say that this beauty couldn’t be more aptly named. If you are single, you love fresh coffee and you hate wasting a whole pot then this is your gadget. You make a fresh cup by popping in a single serving pod (you can buy them at your local grocery store or online) or you can use your choice of beans and then press the button. It’s as simple as that – want not, waste not. It gets an A for convenience. I have found that I can squeeze one pod of stronger coffee for more than one filling of the cup. I love this machine and so do my friends – the Keurig isn’t cheap, but it’s worth every cent. My mornings are better with Keurig.
