I think this is one of the best variety K-cups, very tasty. Would buy again.

Numi's Bouquet Bamboo Gift Set with Clear Teapot and Nine Flowering Teas

Unique gift for tea lovers. Single-serving pot with incredible tea flowers. Very well packaged; good delivery time.

I have had some great coconut water. I have had it straight from the source and packaged. It is usually sweet and wonderful. This is *NOT*! This tastes like fermented juice of some sort that doesn't even resemble coconut. It's sour and bitter. I drank a couple of these hoping to get used to the taste but couldn't. I don't have anything positive to say about this drink, so 1 star it is. I am very disappointed.

This is an extremely satisfying cup of coffee. Tully's got their Italian Roast right. I actually am getting thirsty for a cup of this right now.

I keep buying Emeril's Big Easy Bold K cups because I am limited to about one cup of REAL coffee each morning, and this is REAL, STRONG and DELICIOUS. If you like your coffee strong and use K-cups, this is the one for you.

I agree, it's not Charmin. But really, who needs virgin tissue for, ahem, your rear end? I'm buying my second case today because I have been really happy with this product. Every time I unwrap a roll, I think about the little difference I'm making for my son, and all the other generations that will come after him. Enough said, I think. A very good (not perfect!) toilet tissue, you don't end up changing the roll every other day, and you're helping save a few trees every time you pee! Good enough for me.

I have been primarily a Huggies mom for over a decade. However, with the birth of my fourth child, the hospital this time provided Pampers Swaddlers instead of the Huggies (due to a change in the purchasing supplier, not due to parental/physician/nursing staff requests).

I had already purchased Huggies Supremes for home use, having tried Pampers Swaddlers (due to a friend's recommendation) about 3 years ago with no success (horrible rash on my then newborn son due to the mesh lining!). Overall, insofar as performance goes, I honestly see no discernible difference between either the Huggies Supreme or the Pampers Swaddlers. (Except for the fact that the Huggies newborn size has the "wet/dry" feature on the front of the diaper; the Pampers Swaddlers does not unless you buy the "Sensitive" version. The Swaddlers provided by the hospital wasn't the "Sensitive", but *did* have the line feature regardless in their size 1s. The Huggies does not have that feature in the size 1s. Wish it did.)

However, there are aesthetics about the Swaddlers that appeal to me that has me rethinking Huggies for the first time in 10 years... at least until the Cruisers. (I can't stand the Cruisers. Swaddlers, yes. Cruisers, no.)

1. I like the softness throughout the Pampers Swaddlers. The Huggies Supreme diaper is soft on the inside of the diaper (which *is* important), but not necessarily on the outside. The Swaddlers diaper is soft both inside and out.

2. I really, *really* like the fact that the Swaddlers is a "plain" diaper. The hospital version does one better: No cartoon character AT ALL. Instead of some stupid cartoon character on the band, it simply says "Pampers". I *love* the fact that the diaper itself is plain and white. NO FREAKING CARTOONS on it. I do *not* see the sense or the need to put cartoon characters all over the diaper, especially for a child in size 1-2-3; who cares? Certainly not the child! All the cartoons do is pimp yet another product and show through clothing, which I find highly annoying on both counts. The Huggies Supreme diapers have characters and designs over the entire diaper, making it extremely ugly, and I honestly can't help but wonder how much, if anything, does that add to the overall cost of the diaper? I have emailed Huggies requesting the designs to vanish... we'll see.

As for the mesh causing a rash on my new son... I'm not sure if it's the Lansinoh Cleansing Cloths, the Triple Paste rash cream (prevention), or an improvement of the Pampers itself, but so far, so good = No rashes. (I highly recommend the Lansinoh cloths and the Triple Paste, by the way.)

Insofar as leaks and blow-outs... Both Huggies and Pampers are the same. Both do an excellent job... both leak and both blow-out at times. It's life.

I do recommend the Swaddlers... Just be aware of the rash potential with the mesh lining, and perhaps the above-mentioned products will reduce that happenstance.

ETA: Apologies - had to go; baby was crying. Where was I... The leaks/blow-outs for either diaper run about the same. Both do a fabulous job with containing both leaks and blow-outs, but I have experienced both messes with both diapers. It just depends on baby's output; I don't think there's a diaper in the world that could contain such a natural thing... unless the diaper wrapped around the baby like a onesie. LOL!

For fit... Both Huggies Supreme and Pampers Swaddlers fit wonderfully on my newborn... However, I have to admit I prefer how the Swaddlers fit at this stage in his life; the Huggies seem to run slightly larger in size to the Swaddlers. The sharp tabs of the Swaddlers don't seem to bother my son at this point; I usually pull them nice and snug and almost overlap them under his cord at this point anyway; he isn't active enough to get them to move into a position that could make one of the edges of the tab poke his belly like my older son (one of the reasons why my older son hates the Cruisers). Still, that's one area Pampers could improve with no extra cost: Make the tabs have smooth, rounded edges like the Huggies.

Baby crying. Gotta go.

Good old Coffee People, once a Portland,Oregon favorite, was one of the many wonderful mom-and-pop sort of coffee companies that succumbed to the corporate Starbucks machine. Their coffee is both full of flavor and potent: not for the coffee drinking lightweights. I am so happy that I can still find their brand in K-cup form!
