i am absolutely in love with my new coffeepot. it's the best! it's programmable so i can set it up each night to start brewing coffee in the morning at my assigned time. and i wake up with the smell and sounds of coffee. and then i can run downstairs to my stoop, pick up my paper, run back up and have a nice cup while reading the paper in the morning. it's the best part of waking up, i swear.
