be a coffee-drinking individual - espresso yourself!

i am in love with my parents new coffee maker..Tassimo; the art of the perfect cup. seriously, this thing makes everything; coffee, espresso, latte, cappuccino, hot chocolate, tea...all you have to do is put your tdisc in the top part (the water goes in the back) and within seconds, whatever you're making is brewing up a storm.

the Tassimo coffee machine=love. 

 for a cappuccino, you put the milk disc in first, it brews it up in seconds all frothy and nice...

then the espresso disc goes in second. and again, in a few seconds, it's trickling into your cup. (actually, for the cappuccino, it's supposed to be the espresso first and milk second. but i follow the latte way of making it (because we were out of latte's) and do the milk first and espresso on top-i like it better that way)

ya, it splatters just a little...

the perfect cappuccino in under 1 minute.

want to know the kicker? Shoppers Drug Mart (which is like your Duane Reade in the states) had a special on about 2 weeks ago. this machine was regularly priced at $169.99, but it was on sale for $89.99. there is also a points card at this store, just like every other store now-a-days. so for one day only, you could trade 40,000 points and pay just $10 (!!!!) for the coffee maker. say what!?? (my mom had a tonne of points, they add up fast) so of course my parents were all over this deal! it's going to be a sad day when i go back to my apartment in toronto in a week or two and i'm stuck with instant coffee again haha

i am obsessed with this thing! and i bought my snazzy yellow cup from the dollar store (holla) so i could have my latte's and cappuccino's in style. now you know what would top it all of? if i find out they have pumpkin spiced latte's. i would be in heaven. (hey Tassimo, did you hear that??)

**just an fyi, i was not contacted by the company, or paid by anyone to write this. i just love waking up to my delicious coffee everyday now that i thought i would share!**

it's friday!! hope everyone has a good weekend!
