Death of the Morning Brew

Alas dear friends.. there has been a death in the househould.... Last week, I noticed that a part of broken on my trusty Mr. Coffee.... But... it was still workable... just had to wiggle the top just right and it would close...
No problem... right?
Well, this morning, I had my dear friend ready to roll for an early 5:50 brew (heck normal is 6:10) and was sooooooo ready for my hugeeeee mug o joe this morning... ummmm I was drooling just thinking bout it... nothing better on a colddddd icy morning than a hot cup of coffee......

Staggering down the stairs in my slippers.... .hmmmm no smell of coffee... weird....
Hmmmm, pots not a brewing... hmmmm did I set the timer wrong (wouldnt be the first time).... so I just toddled on over and pressed the on button...

Staggered on into the living room to check on the road conditions... icy ya know.... when I hear a "CRRAACCKKK" from the kitchen....

Yep, you guessed it... NOOOOOOOOOO coffee and a broken coffee pot...

Soooo what to do.... ??? I need some advice folks...
Should I replace my Mr coffee with the current one.... or should I replace with???

Which uses the K cups? I am the only one who drinks coffee....
Help me out here folks... these are pricey.... are they worth it? Am I gonna feel really guilty if I buy something expensive...

All opinions welcome!!!

Hugs
Karen

  1. Hi Karen: Well, if you reeeeaaaallllyyy need that cup-a-joe I think you need to get a new coffee pot. From my experience I'd say get a "middle-of-the-road one...not too many parts to break or not so huge to take up huge "display" space on your counter. While you are deciding I invite you to visit my blog, leave a comment and become a follower. I am following you, too. http://theoldefarmhouse.blogspot.com

  2. Hi Karen, My son-in-law got one of the new one cup coffee pots for christmas and he loves it. It does make good coffee, and the hot chocolate is delicious. The way hubby drinks coffee , I feel the k-cups would be too expensive, but you being the only one who drinks it, I think you would love it. You have such a big variety of coffees to choose from also. Good luck making your decision. I have just started my blog. stop by http://thrunanaswindow.blogspot.com. and visit sometime. Have a good evening
