I should have added k-cups to my post as well! The amount of k-cups I go through seems insane. Funny thing is, I used to hate coffee before surgery. Now I love it, even just black.
I'm loving this thread! And getting so many good ideas I'd never heard of or thought of in a long time.
Thanks to all who are laying it down here. :)
