was trying to make my coffee without rousing anyone else. Keeping the lights down low, I got a mug out of the cabinet and put it under the spigot of the coffee maker and hit the switch. A few minutes later I realized that I had put the mug on the stand upside down and my coffee was all over the countertop and the floor. The drip tray doesn't work so well when you have it covered with the mug itself.

Have a beautiful day

I know what you mean! Lucky the people who designed your coffee pot thought of that!

Guess what I did a couple weeks ago ... I usually put my coffee on before I take my dog outside in the morning so it’s ready when I come back in. I buy the whole bean coffee and grind the beans in my grinder first.

So I set the machine up, put in the beans, and turn it on. It makes a racket so I set it up in the dining room so it’s far away from those who are still sleeping. Anyway, I come back out into the kitchen to fetch my mug and spoon ... and what do I see on the counter ... the hopper for the ground coffee. I forgot to slide it in to collect the ground up coffee! So I run out to the dining room to see the grinder merrily grinding away and all that fresh coffee spilling out onto the table and the floor!



Good thing I managed to keep my dog away from it before I cleaned it up, or else she may have eaten some, and who knows what would have happened after that.

You can bet from then on, I make sure I’ve got the damn thing all put together properly!

But my morning brain is to foggy to function to operate. Plus not much time fast cups for me.
Not sure what cofffee grounds would do to a dog? Have a beautiful day!
