I call this display ‘My sisters and me - and I’m the pretty one’!

Is all the refurb work done??? What coffee makers are they using in a studio? I guess I'm asking about filter type. Can't wait!!!!!

How fun is this?? I come to this thread, last page to catch up just a little and whose names do I see? My old buds Granny and JT.
So comforting. Hi guys! Hello to all Groupies Old (like me) and new!

So then I go to the previous page and BOOM, DLI, TwinkleBug and Bobbi! Hello girls!

It’s fun to see you too!

On December 4 I’ll be checking in VWL with 4 friends. We have dinner in Whispering Canyon that day. Will anyone here be there then? Thinking we could get together to watch the Water Electrical pageant together?!

Jimmy - please tell Tammy those look just like mine!

 

[Corinne]

Sorry we’ll be missing you by a few days Bobbi and Tricia!

Will do! I have discovered after a few days they get even more crunchy, so I throw them in the microwave for 30 seconds and the are just like out of the oven again

I have to say, its nice to be able to get a taste of the Lodge when at home on occasion.

So this morning I was going back through our previous threads to see if I could find my original Groupie comment. No luck yet. Tried a search and it isn't working. It was so nice though to go through and see some of the names of groupies we haven't heard from in a while. Wish they would stop back in and let us know how they are doing. Hey does anyone remember the tag fairy? I had forgotten all about that lol.

I DO remember the tag fairy!

Yes, they are all refurbed. Hopefully, someone else can answer the coffee question. I know they used to be basket filters, but not sure what’s there now. It may be a combination Keurig and drip pot.

Me too.

I think that’s the answer, the combo Keurig.

 

[Mle8308]

I think that’s the answer, the combo Keurig.

Was in a studio last month, it’s a drip coffee maker (Mr. Coffee maybe.). It’s definitely not a Keurig or a combo. I brought home a few of the packets of Joffrey’s coffee and it’s the sachet. You can also watch room tours on YouTube. EDIT: I think I misread, Copper Creek studios have the Mr. Coffee, not sure about BRV. DVC Fan has really good rooms tours on YouTube, there is one for a BRV studio.

I remember the Tag Fairy too. It's how I got the Swivel, it's a hard habit to break line. Not sure how or what prompted that but it's fun all the same!

I just noticed your name and wondered what part of Iowa you're in? I'm in the Omaha, NE area so not too far and I grew up in Iowa.
