Coffee, Cake & a Holiday Giveaway!
I could live without cookies, but could not live without cake.
I could live without tea (I hate tea), but could not live without coffee.
Coffee is my only addiction, as well as a great pleasure in my life (I'm easy).
When I wake up, I can not speak until my first of cup of morning joe (and I am not talking about Joe Scarborough). That's where the addiction comes in.
But afternoons are a different story.
I look forward to my 3:00 after school snack, a piece of cake and good cup of coffee.
I usually stop in at Starbuck's for my afternoon java, however, now I can buy their new K-Cups made especially for Keurig machines to brew at home!
They brew a perfect one cup every time (I sound like a commercial), and I can buy a supply of them to have on hand. Delicious!
The Foodbuzz Tastemakers Program & Starbucks gave me the opportunity to try the new K-Cups as well as give away a lovely Keurig home brewing coffee machine to one of my readers for the holidays (along with some Starbucks K-Cups, of course).
Tell us why you love coffee, and 1 random winner will win this lovely Keurig machine.
What a great holiday gift!
Winners announced on 12/23.

I love coffee because it reminds me of the lover who introduced me to enjoying it.
I love coffee and at an age when one might contemplate retiring, am about to open my own coffee bar called Coffee Bar None.
To you and yours, Ms. Stacey, a wish for a Christmas bar none. Ann in Victoria
Cheers!!

Then when I became a teenager, my best friend and I treated ourselves to a Sunday afternoon visit to a pastry shop, and had espresso in little cups with one sugar cube, but without milk or cream.
After some years, I was completely taken by surprise, by the way my parents consumed coffee. They brewed coffee so strong that the little spoon stood up in the little espresso cups. As soon as I emptied mine, with me even noticing it, my cup was full again, and again…and again.. ! I had a coffee buzz during my whole two weeks while I was in Hungary.
Now I have a little stove-top espresso maker because I’m addicted to the wonderful coffee flavor and the intoxicating smell when I open the coffee jar. Starting your day with a delicious cup of coffee sets the tone for the whole day!

I luv that you can have one cup of coffee anytime you want it without wasting a whole pot. Coffee is a great pick-me-up and a wonderful way to warm up quick!
Happy holidays.

The coffee is the reason we sit together. The sitting together is what gets us through week to week. Coffee is community.

I truly want to thank you for being such a huge source of culinary inspiration for me. My family thanks you, too, for all of the delicious dinners and treats that they have enjoyed over the last couple years. When anyone asks where I get my recipes, I always say “my Stacey” and everyone simply throws their hands in the air as they say “of course” because they all know I am your biggest fan. Your recipes are simple whilst wholesome and I just love your pictures! As for coffee, I don’t know where I would be without it! I need it to get through my work day and my “home day”, as I like to call it. I work full time and have a 1 year old and a very messy husband that doesn’t “see” his mess. I need the sweet, rich coffee deliciousness to keep me sane and my floors clean. I have had my Keurig for a little over a year and now the poor thing is in perpetual “de-scale” mode. I have tried everything from white vinegar and the cleansers they sell at the store to praying for my dearest coffee maker to get better (it only brews a tiny bit at a time so it takes 10 minutes and 3 cycles to make a cup). Has your machine ever had this issue? I must fix it, as a new one is financially out of the question. Any suggestions would be awesome! Thank you for everything you do, Stacey! Have a happy birthday, holiday and New Year!
Sincerely,
Renee Ostrov

My local STARBUCKS has become the CHEERS of my life. I stop in daily and have amassed a wonderful group of friends ranging from a newspaper columnist, a repairman, teachers, a high school parking attendant, two former Dallas Cowboys,a realtor and a caterer.
All these great friends from a daily cup of coffee!
