Let’s Look-COFFEE

Ladies, we’ve got a very serious topic today on our first round of Let’s Look for 2021. Each month Shay and I team up to share with you how we handle something in our home. We invite all of you to join us by linking up at the bottom of each post to share how you handle it in your home. At the bottom of this post, is our new 2021 list of topics for the year. These link-ups are one of my favorite days of the month. I hope you stick around all year long!

Like I said, today’s topic is one I take very seriously and I’m sure many of you will understand…

This is one topic I can really get behind! Can’t you? Today, we’re chatting COFFEE BAR! {My space is really simple so we’re gonna be doing some coffee talk as well. How I like my coffee and I wanna hear how you like YOURS!} I’ll be sure to show you where I make my coffee each and every morning….errrr and all throughout the day. 😉 My space isn’t fancy but boy, oh boy do those cups of coffee taste delicious!

On January 3, 2013, I made and drank my first cup of coffee…it was 1/3 cup of creamer, 1/3 cup of Splenda, and 1/3 coffee. And since that day, {well I still really enjoy some creamer} I’ve now graduated to 2-3 cups every single day. I get excited about it every single morning when my alarm clock goes off in the morning!

Just for the record I took a picture of that first cup and posted it on Instagram. Otherwise-I’d never remember that day. Can you believe I spent the first THIRTY years of my life missing out on the enjoyment of coffee?!

And no matter what-nothing, absolutely nothing, tastes as good as that first cup of morning coffee. Am I right? The second and third cups don’t even compare.

Here’s a little peek at my set up…

A nice and simple Keurig is what makes the magic happen. This was on Monday afternoon…the time is ALWAYS off on this coffee maker. I enjoyed almost all of my cup and then realized I needed a pic so that’s why there’s a little more in my cup. While I’m working on planning Walt Disney World vacations, this coffee mug is my mug of choice. 🙂

I store everything coffee related in the cabinet right above. A little clear container holds all our coffee pods…right now Trader Joe’s Pumpkin Spice and Green Mountain’s Breakfast Blend are happening. I always add one Truvia to my coffee so it’s located in there as well. We have one of those re-fillable coffee pods you add your own coffee to and keep extra coffee for those days I don’t plan correctly causing us to run out of pods.

I’m far from a plain black coffee drinker but I don’t use a frother or anything fancy like that. To be honest, I wouldn’t even know how to work it. Give me a splash or two or three {depending on the day} of hazelnut creamer and a little Truvia..then I’m set! Remember my post yesterday? We’re simplifying in my house and apparently, the one part of my life I’ve been living pretty simple for years is my coffee.

My very FAVORITE coffee is anything “pecan” or “hazelnut” flavored. If you enjoy something similar, please send me your recs! My favorites are Green Mountain’s Southern Pecan {I have a really tough time finding this one in grocery stores but Amazon usually has it}, Green Mountain’s Maple Pecan, and Dunkin’ Donuts Hazelnut. As I was searching for those to link for you, I found Butter Pecan!! Doesn’t that sound good?

Okay, after all that COFFEE TALK I’m off to go make one more cup!

Hope you join us next month when we’re sharing LOVE LANGUAGES! And please send me your best coffee pod recommendations!
