Save Money with a Home Coffee Bar

July 22, 2020

PR Sample

*This product was received as a PR sample from Hamilton Beach. All opinions are my own. 

All I can say is that if it weren’t for coffee and my home coffee bar, I don’t know how I’d get through most days lately. I’m usually so busy during the daytime that I’m more than ready to get to sleep at night. However,I have the hardest time staying asleep all night. My mind is always so busy thinking about everything that I need to get done that I don’t wake up feel refreshed at all. Having a cup of coffee and a bite of a sweet treat first thing in the morning powers me up and helps get me through the day.

Nothing beats a nice cup of coffee on the patio at sunrise.

A few months ago I was #gifted a new coffee maker from Hamilton Beach called the Scoop Coffeemaker which prompted me to set up a coffee bar. This little machine is pretty unique in that it brews ground coffee rather than pods. It can actually brew a delicious cup of coffee in less than 90 seconds. The coffee maker has two different brew size options. It makes either an 8 ounce or 14 ounce travel mug size without using K-cup pods or disposable filters. It even has the option for a regular or a bold brew with the touch of a button.

Sweetie is my Grandma name so I HAD to buy this mug when I saw it. What do you think?

The machine is genius and so easy to use. Simply use the scoop to measure out your favorite ground coffee, put it in the machine (no filter needed) and press start. I confess that I like my coffee sweet and creamy. I buy all sort of creamers and flavored syrups so I always have the perfect cup of coffee to go with my mood (or my food). It’s like having my own little coffee bar setup right in the corner of my kitchen.

I’m kinda feeling like a barista these days enjoying my coffee at home out on my patio in the morning. I love the sleek stainless steel design of the Scoop Coffee Maker. It’s a nice compact size that doesn’t take up too much room on my small kitchen counter. Since I no longer need to purchase pods or K-cups using this machine, I’m saving a ton of money. My cup of coffee costs me just pennies a serving and it tastes great too!

I’ve been making all sorts of little sweets to go with my morning coffee, including healthy versions of banana bread and homemade granola. Let me know if you have any good recipes to share.

Check out this pretty little coffee maker at Walmart or online so you can be a home barista too and make all sorts of quick morning creations or afternoon pick-me-ups.

    I have this machine, and it is great. I confess that I haven’t used it in quite a while because we use our French Press most days, but I definitely don’t know how i would get through the day with out a couple of great cups of coffee!

    Oh, this is a one cup coffee maker? It’s very attractive, and I love all the options you have with it. I am not a fan of K-cup pods since they end up in landfills, so this Hamilton Beach coffeemaker is better in so many ways.

    Nice looking coffee maker. I must be the only person in America that doesn’t drink coffee.

    We have a coffee bar too! ❤️ Our tip is to use a teaspoon of ghirardelli ground white chocolate powder instead of sugar. It can be purchased on Amazon. For our latte we use A capful of monin macadamia nut syrup and the ghirardelli powder. ❤️

    No coffee for me but my husband loves it and is always taking his mug with him. This would be so much more attractive on my counter than the one he has.

Running quick errands on a hot day calls for a loose fitting dress and comfortable sneakers.

Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already reaching for rich fall colors. 🍂

#ad One of my favorite ways to transition into fall is by layering lightweight pieces from @soft_surroundings that keep me comfortable on warm afternoons but are also perfect for when the temperatures start to cool down. It’s an easy way to ease into the next season.

These warm, earthy colors feel so timeless, and each piece can be mixed and matched with other wardrobe favorites.

I started with an eyeshadow palette that has a variety of textures and shades in the rose family to create a million different looks. And yes, you can wear shimmers and whatever else makes you feel confident even if you’re a more mature woman.😎

You can’t go wrong any of the makeup brushes from BK Beauty to apply and blend your makeup. This eyeshadow brush is one of many that I love.

The foundation stick is new for me and I’m wondering where it’s been my whole life! It’s that good. Just swipe, blend and go. Available in so many shades that there’s one for everyone!🙌🏻

Adding depth and glow to the face couldn’t be easier with a multitasking palette of bronzer, highlighter and blush. It’s perfect for travel too.✨

The lip glow is fun because it’s a pH reactive one so it’s almost like having a custom shade that’s just for you.
