Anybody who knows me knows I am a coffee addict. I have a cup at least every other day. I have an Examiner page dedicated to it. I buy and grind my own beans. I am no stranger to Starbucks. I. Love. Coffee.
But the one coffee trend I never got on board with? Keurig. Since my boyfriend, my friends, and I all drink a crapload of coffee, brewing one cup at a time just didn’t appeal to me. I wanted to be able to make a pot we could all share. I liked grinding my own beans. I refused to cheat on Mr. Coffee.
But then Influenster sent me the new Keurig 2.0 to test, and I must say, it’s growing on me. While I can’t grind and use my own beans (bummer fail), this version does brew a carafe’s worth of coffee (yay!), and the simplicity of it all appeals to my inherent laziness. Ever since I received this machine last weekend, I have been saying #hellokeurig a lot more often:
I brew a little caffeinated somethin’ somethin’ on those mornings when I need a pick-me-up…
And a carafe on those mornings when I need a hard kick in the ass. Or when I feel like sharing with T.O.
My Keurig coffee keeps me company on the commute to work…
…and sticks by my side when I’m studying late at night for one class assignment or another. #GradSchool, y’all.
In fact, I’ve been saying #hellokeurig a lot more often and neglecting Mr. Coffee. Forgive me, Mr. Coffee. We’ve had a good run, shared some good times. But I think I’ve found another. His name is Keurig. 2.0.

If you want to see what the Keurig 2.0 is all about and watch a demo, then check out this sweet awkward YouTube video I made. My apologies in advance for the weird faces. #AwkwardVlogging, y’all.
I received this sweet-ass coffee machine from Influenster for testing purposes. All opinions are my own because I do what I want. #mandatorydisclaimer
