Giveaway: Enjoy 2012 with a Brand New Keurig Platinum Brewing System (Plus Two Boxes of K-Cup® Packs)

The holidays are officially over. No more gifts. No more tree.  No more mess! Thank goodness. Now it's time for a brand new year. A new slate. As you may know, I'm a very proud owner of a Keurig Brewer. It's basically my lifeline in the morning. I love coffee. I need coffee. And I don't see myself drinking anything else in the morning to get me through the day. That is exactly why I was so happy to be part of an ambassador program from Green Mountain Coffee.  I'm one of the K-Cup … [Read more...]

What Happened To New York Chica?

Donut House Collection: How To Eat a Donut Without The Calories

As you may already know, I am a proud K-Cup® Ambassador. I've been a Keurig Brewer owner for over 2 years and its made me an even bigger coffee addict.

Blah! I despise instant coffee so I would always make 3-4 cups of coffee a day and throw out about half.  Not by choice -- it would … [Read more...]

My Love for Coffee Just Got Bigger, Thanks to K-Cup® Portion Packs

My love for coffee has grown since becoming a K-Cup Ambassador. Before trying out the Brew Over Ice K-Cup® portion packs, I was never an iced coffee kind of person.  I prefer my coffee to be piping hot. But let's be real here, it's Summer and it's HOT!  I don't think I can drink my coffee hot all the time.  I want something to cool me off and caffeinate me as well.  That's where the iced coffee K-Cup® portion packs comes in. I can't imagine surviving the hot and humid Summer without iced … [Read more...]

Enjoying The Summer with Keurig’s Brew Over Ice

Summer is in full swing as we all know and for me, Summer means glasses upon glasses of iced cold lemonade and iced tea.  They're both my drink of choice when its sweltering hot out. Not only am I one of Keurig's K-cup ambassador but I am one of their biggest fans .  They keep me amazed and well-caffeinated when I need to be and are always surprising me with different flavors.  I know there are others that claim to be the "best" at creating a multitude of beverages but they can't compare to … [Read more...]
