I went shopping yesterday for my SP. She doesn't specify anything
that she really "wants/needs" so I purchased stuff that I am hoping she will like. Since she has an embroidery machine this is going to be "fun" sending her stuff for that use.I HOPE to have my box in the mail EARLY this week but most of that depending on if I can get something made just for her. More clues: 1) You are ALMOST 2000 miles from where I live. 2) You live near a "body" of water of some sort, it could be a lake, pond mud hole or ocean who knows. 3) It looks like it will be a nice sunny day where you are at. Wish it was going to be that warm here too, but alas this IS Colorado, the Bipolar state. (because it can't decide if it is going to be cold or nice weather for January). 4) Your City has approximately 115 square miles. 5) Some of the research I did on your city cites it to be the one of the safest cities in your state for a population of over 100,000 residents. That is all the clues for now. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now an OFF TOPIC grump. I'm soooo MAD and sad :hunf: :thumbdown: :( because we have to take our SECOND Keurig brewer back to Costco. The first quit brewing after 1 week. Got another new machine worked great for about 2 weeks then it started getting to where it work display "Prime" and flash the lights. Tim has been threatening to take the dang thing back, well after it did the prime thing AGAIN today (got to where it did it after EVERY cup brewed) he said enough is enough. So he boxed it all up to return. Not sure what he is going to do next, but I do KNOW he said no more Keurig models. He is looking at maybe getting a "Mr. Coffee" brand. Guess it is back to the standard ole coffee makers. |

Quilty-Louise,
I have a Keurig and one thing I found out was that if you use the k-cups, the holder to the k-cup (the black part) make me lodged. If you check the manual there is a small trick to use a toothpick into the "puncture" part and then clean it. My keurig did the same as yours and I never had a problem since. And yes the utility fabrics are on sale at Joanns> May go today for that purple paisley one hope I can find it! |
I called the company about my coffee pot because it was getting slower with each Kcup..they told me to take a paper clipand poke it thru the holes because it likely had a coffee ground stuck there. I did that and it works perfectly...I also "descale" it when I get around to doing that...the book gives specific instructions. Go get another on, Quilty. Remember the 3rd time is the charm!
Krystyna..that animal gives me nightmares! I hope he can't run all the way to Illinois!!! |
qn4e - yeah we would clean the upper and lower "needle" area on
a regular basis. I just got to where sometimes you could brew 1 cup of coffee and work on the machine (until said cup of coffee was cold) just to get it to working again. This morning it took me 40 minutes of removing the reservoir washing, scrubbing, and doing every "trick" the manual and website talked about doing. When I got it to work again I had to put my cup of coffee in the nuker to heat it up again. TIm never did get his cup of coffee he was "out of the mood" to drink any at this point. We didn't even have it for 2 months yet and it was the "Platinum" B70 model (not the low end model either).

Tim refuses to get another one. He is the type of person that he
will ONLY give a product 1 "do over" if he has to take it back a second time he is done with it completely. After 12+ year with him I have learned when he got into THAT frame of mind to just let it be and go along with him. He pulled my little 5 cup makers out (good thing we didn't get rid of it) and I now have a full (5 cup pot at least) of fresh HOT coffee waiting for me.

One shirt repaired for Tim (told him NEXT time I have to repair that
SAME shirt (4th or 5th time now) that it was going to my scrap bins. Need to get back to doing some sewing for another project, need make a little something for my SP I like to do "embroidery" stuff but since my sp has an embroidery machine I am thinking of making something else that she likes. Since I am now "flying" on a caffeine buzz now would be a good time to sewing (providing I can sit still that long). Have fun everyone. |
