I decided to invest in a coffee maker for several reasons:

1) It’s cheaper than Starbucks (don’t worry though Starbucks, you and I will always have a very special bond)

2) I cause less environmental destruction when I use mugs at home

3) I can program my coffee maker to wake me up with the delicious smell of coffee in the morning

4) I can enjoy a steaming cup of coffee without braving the treacherous DC cold

5) I have more options for healthier flavored coffees (with flavored beans instead of sugar-y syrup)

In honor of my brand-new Mr. Coffee coffeemaker, I’m going to invest in some good flavors! So far I’ve decided on:

  • French Vanilla
  • Pumpkin Spice
  • Peppermint
  • Coconut
  • Caramel
  • Swiss Mocha Almond
