I ❤️ Coffee !

Brenda over at a "Cosy Little House" is a fellow coffee lover.  

She's showing us her coffee stations today and telling us about her coffee habits.  

Yes, that is not one.. but two coffee stations. 

My Tinkerbell Coffee Mug!

I haven't posted for awhile.   

With my sewing machine in for a check up and not much going on with my crocheting there's not much to share here.

But then I saw Brenda's coffee posting and thought it would be fun to join in.


My name is Sandy.  

And I am a coffee addict.

I must have my coffee. 

It started when I graduated from high school and began my working career. 



For years I used to microwave my water and use instant coffee.

{I'm the only coffee drinker here so more than one cup goes to waste.}  

Several years I bought a ten-cup Cusinart coffee maker to use for BUNCO when hosting.

I used it a few times for my BUNCO gals but the rest of the year it sat in my cupboard.

I could make four cups with it but after sitting out the coffee was cold.

  

Then two Christmases ago "Santa" bought me a Keurig Single Server coffee maker and life hasn't been the same here since. 


I love my Keurig!  

Now my coffee automatically comes out the right temperature to drink and I can have a fresh cup anytime I want...quickly and in just about any flavor too. 

I love the hot teas too.

And the hot chocolate and hot apple cider.

Yummy!


I stock up on the flavors I like in K-cups. 

 I  favor light roasted coffee...like these.

I gave up sugar in my coffee in my twenties…too sweet for me. 

Just milk or creamer for me.

I can't stand it black.  

Cute Mickey Mug…wish it was mine.

I don't just drink it in the morning though. 

I like a cuppa... ALL.DAY.LONG.  

When I worked in an office and needed that afternoon pick me up there was never any coffee made.

It used to drive me crazy!  



The only negative is that it goes right through me.   

I think you know what I mean. 


Oh, and my Cusinart Ten Cup coffee maker…

I gave it to my brother's family.

They are all coffee drinkers.

I think I NEED another cup…right now!

Want to join me?

How Do Your Roses Grow?


Whew...121 granny rose squares finished, joined and ends sewn in.

Not a "real" rose garden but just as much work as one!




The only "Rose Garden" I've ever had!!




Now to decide on a border and edging...Edie has so many lovely borders to choose from.




No. 86 caught my eye - the design not this color. It looks like little, tiny flowers going all around the border that would compliment my granny rose theme...I'm trying a sample but so far I haven't figured out how to do the flower.   

 I'll keep working on it...I have a bee in my bonnet and want to do this border!




I think the border would be just right in shades of green.




After starting my morning off with you, blogging and a great cup of Keurig coffee I'm off to buy real flowers for our shed's flower boxes this morning.

Have a most wonderful day my dear blogging friends!
