About a month into our marriage, Pete learned something very important. I’m a much better companion when I am caffeinated. I think this holds true for many of us, especially in the mornings. Since those early days, we have settled into what I call our early-morning tradition. Since we both wake up before 5 am, Pete is the first in the kitchen, makes us both coffee, and then hand delivers it to me.
He’s a keeper for so many reasons, and his coffee delivery skills, even if done for self-preservation isn’t lost on me. It makes me love him even more.
We talk about all sorts of things in those predawn moments. What we have planned for the day, the kids, work, and anything else that pops into our heads in the moment. For instance, there was a time when I blurted out how great he was at making coffee and he laughed at me and said it wasn’t his skill level improving, it was an upgrade in our coffee! Pete had recently switched our usual coffee, to Seattle’s Best Coffee® for nearly THE SAME PRICE. Seattle’s Best Coffee® is brewed from 100% Arabica beans and is a high-quality coffee with a surprisingly smooth taste with a variety of coffee to choose from.
Pete was tired of settling for average coffee when we can get something better. That totally clicked in my mind as a big picture thing. So often we get set in our ways, wanting better and wanting more but not actually taking steps to change things. Coffee that morning changed me. Not only was it so smooth and easy to sip and drink, but it felt like a free upgrade from our usual brand. There is even a Price Match Guarantee that makes switching from your usual coffee risk-free!
Our morning tradition even got more fun since we got this adorable gift box from Seattle’s Best Coffee®. We now have matching doggy mugs to enjoy our coffee in. I hope the kids don’t steal them!
We normally use K-Cups so that we can have a fresh cup of coffee throughout the morning, and then we brew a pot of coffee when we are entertaining. I can’t wait for my friends and family to enjoy Seattle’s Best Coffee® Signature Blend No. 4 that is in the gift box! It sounds so good!
My favorite place to drink coffee is out on our balcony. As soon as the sun starts to rise I always have a second cup there. I’m so happy that they sell this great coffee for a great price at Kroger, it will definitely become a staple in our house that we will be putting on our grocery list week by week. I see a lot more mornings on the balcony enjoying Seattle’s Best Coffee®.
My main morning tradition is coffee and yoga. Now also caring for my sweet new baby. Love those mugs!
I love coffee too and Seattle’s Best is definitely best. My husband and I work different hours so instead of enjoying a cup of coffee at dawn, we have ours at noon. Well, of course, I still have my first cup in the morning at 5am. 🙂
I can’t fully wake up without my morning coffee. Seattle’s Best is good coffee, too! Yum.
I don’t usually drink coffee, but I like Seattle’s Best when I make fancy drinks or use coffee in recipes. Those mugs are super cute.
I adore those cups. We have beagles so our coffee cups both have beagles on them. I love this brand of coffee too.
My morning tradition is stumbling to the coffee maker and pawing at the on button. LOL After that everything’s gravy.
My morning tradition is getting the kids up because they didn’t set their alarms and trying my best not to poke them too hard while I shoo them out the door to chase the bus. Coffee powers all of this.
Our morning tradition is having some coffee while the sun comes up. It gets us in the right frame of mind for the day. It’s very zen.
OMG, where can I get those mugs and that coffee? Mmmmm, to die for!
I can’t start my day without making myself a coffee. Those mugs are way too cute.
Those mugs are super cute!! I would love to use them for my morning java 🙂
I can’t live without my Keurig! It is the first thing I do when I stumble out of bed. Eyes barely open, I push the power button and then walk back to the bathroom as it heats up!
I am NOT a morning person, my husband is. Our morning tradition is he tries not to wake me when he’s getting up at 4:45 am, and I wake up right before he goes to work. He’d love it if I made him coffee/breakfast in the morning but that would be spoiling him. 🙂
My husband makes my coffee every morning, but does not even drink coffee himself. I simply can not function without it and he understands.
I’m a fan of Seattle’s Best, and the #4 is my jam. Also, those mugs are the cutest! I love terriers.
My morning starts with a cup of coffee, btw I really love your mug it looks cute where I can buy?
Having coffee is also my family’s morning tradition. Those coffee mugs are super cute!
I would not know what to do if my morning routines were messed up. It takes me off track all day.
How cool are those mugs! I can’t function without coffee! 😀
I also love my coffee every morning. I want to have alone/quiet time with it.
My husband would love this. He’s the coffee drinker in the house, I will have to let him know about Seattles best!
I had this in Louisiana for the first time and fell in love. I love the flavor and boldness of this coffee, now to find it in Texas!
I love your coffee mugs, they are so cute! I also love this coffee, it’s so yummy!
I love that mug! I have a few morning routines and it all starts with Coffee. I love to sit in the morning sun when the house is still quiet and I am the only one up. I can usually get through 3/4 a cup before the kids get up.
Those mugs are awesome! Coffee is a must for me every morning!
Cheers for great coffee! I always want it every morning, I just can’t think straight when I didn’t have it.
I like your mugs! It’s so cute 🙂 Your husband is so sweet too, preparing coffee for both of you 🙂
Those mugs are too cute! It’s nice to change up your coffee every now and then. And I didn’t realize Seattles best would be the same price!
I haven’t ever been a morning person and find it difficult to do much without caffeine. Those mugs are the cutest too.
We just get up and get ready for the bus and kids go to school, then I hangout at home w/ youngest and hubby watching Netflix.
My husband and I use this brand all the time. He gets me my coffee in the morning as well. Keepers for sure!
I’m honestly not much of a coffee drinker, but I do enjoy a cup of it every now and then! Especially when I need “fuel” to jump start a long day ahead of me.
Those mugs! I don’t drink coffee every morning, but sometimes I do need the pick-me-up!
Seattle’s Best makes me happy. Those cups are really cute.
Those mugs are just too cute. 🙂 I always start the day with a cup of ICED coffee! I am in Florida so I need ice at all times! LOL
Those coffee mugs are absolutely adorable! I want one for my hot chocolate!
I really love where your home is located, the view is just beautiful! Love the cup, so pretty.
I am like you. I am better when caffeinated! The coffee mugs are absolutely adorable!
I am obsessed with your mugs!!!! There is nothing better than the quiet of the early morning and a hot cup of coffee!
Those mugs are super adorable! I love Seattle’s Best coffee too. It’s all we buy these days!
I’ve been pregnant so long I have started craving coffee lately. This sounds wonderful, and I love the cute mugs.
I haven’t tried this brand of coffee but I love drinking coffee on my patio. We are on spring break next week so I’m sure that’s what I’ll be doing. – yolonda
