A Keurig Brewer Giveaway! {Recipe: Toasted Coconut Mocha Frappe} CLOSED

Kristen — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 20:09:59 +0000

This giveaway has ended. The winner was Allison S. Congrats Allison and thanks to all who participated!

Dine & Dish readers can use the code AM0012-3571 at GreenMountainCoffee.com to receive 15% off Donut Shop Coffees; both Regular T60052-101and Decaf T60224-101, as well as free standard shipping. This offer is not available to Café EXPRESS members, and is valid through April 30th, 2012.

I have certainly had a blast being a Green Mountain Coffee K-Cup® Ambassador this past year. I would say, of all the great brands I’ve worked with, being a part of the Keurig® / Green Mountain Coffee team has made the biggest change for our household. It began last year when the Keurig® brewer first arrived, and has continued through the months as I’ve quickly become one of those “I love coffee” people! I liked coffee before, but we never brewed it at home. I’d make a couple trips to the local coffee shop each week, and savored each cup as I’d drink it, but coffee at home? That wasn’t an experience I was used to.

Each day now, coffee has become my ritual. I like coffee, a lot, but even more so than that I love that you can’t guzzle down coffee. You have to sit and slowly sip it, which means at least one time during the day I get to stop and take the time to drink a cup of coffee. It forces me to slow down and for that, I am thankful.

I also like how the Keurig® brewer ensures that each cup of coffee I drink is just right. There is no guessing, no measuring.. I just put in the flavor of K-Cup® I want and voila… a perfect cup of coffee each and every time I use it.

And let’s not ignore the biggest thing I am over looking… I’ve become a bit of a nut when it comes to photographing coffee. Just follow the #shotofcoffee hashtag on Instagram and you’ll notice that several people get in on the fun each day of taking a pic of their morning cuppa Joe. It’s a virtual coffee club with some of the best coffee loving friends.

Speaking of fun, I would have to say the K-Cup brand with the most personality and who seems to really love to have fun with their coffee is The Original Donut Shop™ Coffee. Just to prove how fun they are, they are giving one lucky Dine & Dish reader the chance to win a Keurig® Single Cup Brewer and a box of Coconut Mocha K-Cup® packs – their newest fun flavor!

It’s Tea Time – Bigelow® and Celestial Seasonings® K-Cup® Giveaway

Kristen — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 03:31:23 +0000

Ahhhhhhh… I love a cup of hot tea. There is something about sitting down to sip on hot tea that is instantly calming and soothing. It forces you to slow down, to savor and to just breathe for a few minutes. I think everyone could use a little tea time, don’t you?

Although I have always been a tea drinker, my hot tea consumption has increased since getting the Keurig Brewer last year. Sure, there is some nostalgia to the whistling kettle on the stove top, but I enjoy how with the Keurig and Bigelow® or Celestial Seasonings® K-Cup® packs I can easily make myself a cup of hot tea in just a minute….

Green Mountain Coffee Discount Code and Gift Guide

Kristen — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 19:49:30 +0000

If there is one thing about my habits that has changed more than anything this year it would have to be my fondness for a good cup of coffee. I liked coffee before, but we never made it at home. I never knew the goodness of waking up to the perfectly brewed cup of coffee to kick start the day. Since getting my Keurig and becoming involved with Green Mountain Coffee through their brand ambassadorship, I would say coffee has become an integral part of my routine. I look forward to a few quiet moments each day with my hot cup of coffee in my hands….

A Touch of Fall {Apple Cider Recipe Roundup}

Kristen — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 19:08:23 +0000

Our air conditioner is turned off for the season, our windows are wide open, light quilts and long pajama pants are pulled out from the back of our closets, Saturday’s are devoted to college football games… and my allergies are driving me crazy. This can only mean one thing, my friends. Fall is officially here!…

Crockpot Confusion {Recipe: Slow Cooker Coffee & Garlic Roast Beef}

Kristen — Mon, 29 Aug 2011 20:07:53 +0000

As I was typing the title for this blog post this morning, I got stumped…. I used a Rival Crock-Pot to make the Coffee and Garlic Roast Beef for these sandwiches, but my fingers wanted to type crockpot. I went to my Facebook and Twitter friends to find out the important answer to this most critical question – Is it Crockpot, crockpot, crock-pot, slow cooker or slowcooker? What is this handy appliance really referred to as?…
