When we use the Keurig, Donut Shop is my favorite. It's just 'right'.
Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you look at it) this was an Iced Coffee pod. It just makes it extra strong and it's kind of a gross one, hence the Half and Half. But it's coffee!

My all time personal favorites are the Green Mountain Coffee Chocolate Dipper Pistachio, Wild Mountain Blueberry, and one they no longer have. I can't remember if it was Rice Pudding or Bread Pudding but it was delightful.

Wild Mountain Blueberry is the BEST ever.

All those flavors sound amazing!
 
I think my trip to Sam's Club was a success I got lots of different kinds of meat too stick up for trying Joel's diet he's helping me with! Then a stop at food lion to grab a few more essentials now home and everything put away. I get to rest a bit then we are heading to my adorable great nieces birthday. You guys would love her she is so sassy but in a good way not a bratty way. Lol
 
Paul too?? yesterday I saw what Jill posted but I didn't see Paul's, I'm so sorry my friend
Oh wait my bad I got the people mixed up please ignore my comment
