So how early is too early on a Saturday morning to call a neighbor and beg for a cup of coffee grounds?
**UPDATE: Found a very old bag of Starbucks Verona stuffed in the back of the freezer — a Christmas miracle, perhaps? (Or a forgetful housewife, more likely. But let’s just go with it.)

Hope you get your cup. Our coffee is brewing now… (decaf for me…)
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow….
Oh no! No coffee! I hope you make it. My 9 year old has been bringing us coffee in bed the past week and it is heavenly. Too bad I didn’t go to bed until 2am. I wasn’t ready for coffee at 8am.
OMGness. Call. Call. Call. They will totally understand!
That IS a Christmas miracle!
LOL!
Ya know…you’re weather is making Iowa weather looking simply serene. Be afraid my friend, be very afraid.
I’m so thankful I have a D’n'D literally 50 steps around the block
You poor dear! Hopefully you’ve recovered from the trama/drama. I do envy your snow. We’re only getting the cold rain/snow mix from the bottom tip of the storm.
So glad you found one…lol
Oh girl – I would have died. I am so glad you found some coffee.
Can’t wait to see some pics of the snow. We got flurries here and it is so so cold. I am very glad no snow though.
I am glad you found some. We are out of creamer! The snow is about 10 inches outside , so I guess coffee without creamer isn’t so bad!
Coffee is a must…anytime for me!
so much for all that stocking up on the essentials, huh?? This is only funny because I know that it had a happy ending!! Thank goodness for those forgetful housewife skills!! =P Stay Warm, my friend!!
Next year when you *dust off the sled*….check the coffee cupboard. I don’t think you will ever forget again. I am so desperate for my morning coffee that I keep instant here in case I lose power and have to heat water on the gas grill…now that is desperate!!!
Oh, I have so been there. We tend to have lots of ice in our part of the country and the last time we were without power for more than 24 hour, I was heating water in metal pans with candles so that I could “brew” coffee.
It tasted worse than it sounds and I know have a propane stove that I can use outside to make coffee in a old wood stove percolator!
From one coffee addict to another, keep an extra bag hidden. You will never regret it.
