Are You a Coffee Lover? - You Need To Check This Out!!

January 3, 2009 – 4:36 pm

For all of you coffee, tea and hot chocolate lovers out there, boy do I have something for you. Despite our “NO GIFT RULE” our best friend (sister really), Breheny gave us a super cool Keuring Single Cup Coffee Maker.

If you haven’t checked these out yet, you really need to. It really beats trying to make a good pot of coffee at home and it is so much better than leaving the house every day to get your caffeine fix at either Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks. Not to mention it is much cheaper, about 55 cents per cup compared to upwards of $5.00 at either of the two previous mentioned coffee venues. I couldn’t believe how many different varieties of coffee, tea and hot chocolate are available in the super convient K-Cups made especially for Keurig Coffee Makers. There are tons of flavors and from our experience they are delicious. Even Dunkin and Starbucks is said to be making their coffees available in the K-Cups soon.

I guess the best part of this incredible piece of technology is that you can’t mess it up. Simply choose your coffee, pick your size (small, medium or large) and in about 15 seconds you have a fresh-brewed cup of coffee. Talk about something you would see in one of the “Back To The Future” movies. Don’t get me wrong, once in a while I will still have an Ice Coffee from Dunkin or a Frappuccino from Starbucks but this has made our day-to-day coffee drinking so much nicer and enjoyable. Check out all of the great options at http://www.Keurig.com

CT Photographers + NYC = Pure Craziness!!

November 3, 2008 – 12:53 pm

While we were in NYC for the PDN Expo a couple weeks back, Kathleen an I spent the day with some fellow CT Photographers also in the city for the expo. Here is some of the craziness from that day!!

We met up with everyone at a little Irish Pub across the street from B&H, how fitting right. Our waitress took this photo. Here come the shout-outs (from left to right): Amanda (Harris) Herberger, Candace Jeffery, my beautiful (and super talented) wife Kathleen, Eric Foley, Val McCormick, Steve Depino, Tina Parsadanov, Carla Ten Eyck, and of course yours truly :).

Eric grabbed my camera and captured this photo of Kathleen & I, wow I am a lucky man!!

I took my camera back and returned the favor by shooting a quick shot of Eric. I really liked how is shirt looked in B/W

From one Irish Pub to another, it seemed to be the theme of the day.

Eric so badly wanted to pose at the bottom of the stairs, don’t ask me why :)… this is what he came up with…lol!

After being inside for a while, we decided to walk around the city. We stumbled upon this really cool garage door. The thing I think I like about this photo the most is that how Carla had to get an iPhone photo of me taking the picture. By the way Carla I would love to see some of those!!

I got Carla to put down her phone and we got a pretty kick-butt picture of the girls.

Kathleen took my camera and made Eric & I get in a shot.

We made random friends on the street, I have to give Carla credit for this shot.

I don’t even know what to say about this one, I think they were going for some kind of Spiderman thing, either way it makes me laugh.

Carla’s son is named Jack and Val’s husband share’s the same name so they thought this was only fitting.

I took a quick shot of Val as we were getting into Times Square but what really makes me laugh about this picture is the way Carla is laughing in the background. I can only imagine what Eric said or did to get that kind of reaction.
