It’s Road Trip Time!

Tomorrow morning I’ll be hitting the road bright and early to drive 864 miles with my family.
This will be the longest road trip we’ve taken with both our kids (ages 4 and 1 1/2). We’re going from Boise, Idaho to Frazier Park, California (south of Bakersfield). About 14 hours. Should I …

Tiptoe Through the Tulips

I am just loving these tulips from my front yard. They have propagated quite nicely since last year so there are tulips to spare. My husband usually takes the pictures, but this time I tried to give him a little break….then he photoshopped it to look better. Ah man! …

I am thrilled about this method for organizing my K-Cups. Things were really getting out of hand in my pantry. I got this drawer set at Walmart for less than 9 bucks. It’s perfect! I have my dark roast K-Cups on top, medium roast in the middle drawer, and the …

What the Use-By Date Really Means

I thought this post was interesting. It makes me feel better about my soon-to-reach-the-use-by-date K-Cups (sorry for all the hyphens). Plus, kcuptrade.com won’t have to be bullies about K-Cups that are close to that date since it’s not an expiration date.

This K-Cup Barista is Stumped

I haven’t been a K-Cup Barista very long, and I’m still earning my title. I just got a new Keurig (the Platinum) and I’m figuring out whether the 10oz or 8oz setting is best for most drinks. I like how the 10oz fills my mugs better, but I can definitely …

Nothing Says Mother’s Day Like a New Keurig

This wasn’t exactly a Mother’s Day gift, but it may as well be. My husband found a killer (and I mean killer) deal on the Keurig Platinum and bought it for me. Yippee!
We are going to sell our old one. Talk about being spoiled. This thing has five settings, a …

Confessions of a Non-Coffee Drinker

Hi there, I’m the husband of the K-Cup Barista and I’m hijacking the blog. (That’ll teach her to leave the computer lying around…) I appreciate the smell of coffee, but I’ve never gotten the hang of drinking the stuff.

Why I Got a Keurig

I’m a one-cup in the morning coffee (sometimes tea) drinker, I have two rambunctious little boys , and I needed coffee fast. Plus, I could never seem to make good coffee with my old coffee pot.
Once you know you can have coffee this good, this conveniently, you are spoiled. …
