We are now up to three pots in the morning and our commercial coffee grinder is being put to the test and depreciating rapidly.\u00a0 We are already on a monthly shipment of the beans from <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.coffeeforless.com\/\">Coffee for Less.<\/a><\/strong> I hope they see I&#8217;m a good referral source and ship one free 100 pound bag to me this month.\u00a0 One can hope right? Then my daughter now has her own Keurig machine, but still consumes MY supply.<\/p>\n<p>Now I love my kids, but they are making me draw the line. Kids or beans, beans or kids?\u00a0 Whoever said children are a blessing should have their beans removed for a month. Then let&#8217;s see how they truly feel?\u00a0 It&#8217;s enough to make a parent become a closet coffee addict and hide from the children coffee conspiracy.\u00a0 Now our time of watching our grandson ends this next week and my supply of beans will stop depleting as rapidly.\u00a0 My son will have to find his caffeine fix somewhere else.<\/p>\n<p>This leaves me only with the issue of my daughter.\u00a0 If there are any rich doctors, dentists or computer engineers seeking a beautiful, fun loving, and intelligent soul mate &#8211; puhleeeeze reply to this post. I&#8217;m taking applications and interviews for a son-in-law. Those with saggy pants need not apply. Attach photos of your coffee accessories and bean supply.
