from YUCKY to YUMMY

Not quite a "Yummy or Yucky" post, but the purchase of our NEW coffee pot deserves props of it's own! Scott and I made both some good and bad choices with our wedding registry/money (mostly good). Two of our not-so-great purchases included an elliptical machine (which we used all of a month... the Y is so much better!) and a Mr. Coffee coffee pot. This coffee pot had all the pleasing design features you'd want in a kitchen appliance: sleek, black design, stainless steel carafe, and "clock" face. However, after a month or so, this coffee maker started making the YUCKIEST coffee. It was tolerable, but something just wasn't right about it. Scrubbing, cleaning, a rinse with white vinegar, all attempts to make the coffee taste better were FUTILE! So we've suffered... till now!

OLD & YUCKY ------------------> NEW & YUMMY

With a move looming on the horizon, we decided to mark the occasion by purchasing a new coffee maker. I did some research, and decided on a 12-cup coffee maker by Hamilton Beach that cost us around $40 (because coffee makers can get pricey!). So far we've successfully brewed 3 tasty pots of yummy coffee. It's the little things in life that make your day!

from jessie (would you like some coffee with that creamer?!)... with love

  1. I love my coffee pot! It was a gift and it brews one cup at a time using Keurig K-cups! So delicious! Hope your pot continues to bless you with delicious cups of joe!
