Wow!!! The party was great!!! I love my new Keurig coffee maker and all my guests were jealous!!! Everyone had a wonderful time drinking the coffee of their choice and eating the desserts! The coffee cups and calendars were well appreciated and enjoyed by all! All my guests were very excited about the coupon and several ran out and bought their own coffee maker within days of our party! I can't wait to get my next shipment of coffee to enjoy! Thanks Keurig and Houseparty.com!!!

Everyone had a great time and loved the coffee thanks to Green Mountain coffee and the Keurig brewer. The flavored coffees were the favorites though my husband is a fan of the extra bold coffees. With the Keurig, everyone can have exactly the brew they like. The travel mugs and calendars were a great hit and everyone enjoyed having a gift to take home long after the coffee and desserts were done.

Thank you House Party for the opportunity to host the Green Mountain & Keurig party.

Thanks HouseParty and Green Mountain! What a great party! What a great party pack! Everyone loved the travel mugs! They are sooo cute! And apparently the 'tops' are the 'right' ones ... that was the comment I got from several of the gents - and they call us ladies picky! I liked the GM Wild Blueberry the best - guess that is one you either love or hate - more for me! Everyone liked the Double Black Diamond ... they say it tastes like Starbucks. Swapped some flavors with others who have their own Keurig. A great time was had by all!

What a great party we had! Everyone loved the coffee and the Keurig coffee maker. The party favors went over well, and everyone took home a jar cake and gift bag with lots of goodies. Thanks to houseparty.com, Keurig, and Green Mountain coffee for all of the wonderful, cool stuff.

What a fun party! This was my first House Party and I had so much fun planning, preparing and hosting this party. All of my friends were very impressed with the Keurig and all of the varieties of the Green Mountain Coffee. Everyone loved how easy it was to use the machine and the lack of mess. Some were concerned about the waste of using so many disposable plastic containers with the K-cups. I told them about the reusable one and I am definitely going to go get one for myself. We had lots of fun sharing fun stories together and catching up. We decided we would get together again soon to enjoy some more Green Mountain Coffee made with the Keurig! I can't wait! I hope I get picked to host another House Party soon!

What a wonderful time we had. Everyone kept coming back for another cup of goodness. There were so many wonderful treats to go along with our coffee that I ended up sending everyone home with goody plates. Thankyou so much Green Mountain, Keurig and House party for an awesome party.

This was the best House Party I've hosted yet! Everyone loved the coffee and stood around the machine like kids around a new toy. The favorite was the Nantucket blend and Dark Magic. We had chocolate chip scones, strawberry cheesecake and a bundt cake for desserts. All perfect with coffee. I know at LEAST 2 of my guests have already bought the brewer and I know more plan on it. Thanks House Party, Keurig and Green Mountain for an awesome party!

Like others this was my first House Party as a host and it was the perfect product and brand to start with. I have plenty of coffee-addicted friends and they were ALL impressed with the Keurig. They tried all sorts of combinations of coffees and bakeries. My friend Katie loved making different versions of the moccachino (coffee and hot cocoa).

People brought the greatest treats to share (though I'm partial to my own cupcakes).

Party pack was great - low key, not too flashy, but reminded them who the brands were.

I'm reading the other comments and now think I need to look more closely at all the different flavors for my next Cafe Express order!

This was my first house party & the Keurig/Green Mountain Coffee Party was certainly a great way to start! Everyone loved the coffee, the favorite being "Golden French Toast" - a limited edition which I ordered when joining Cafe Express.

We had a really fun party - not as many people showed up as I expected, but we all enjoyed ourselves. The Keurig machine went over really well and the variety of coffee , tea and cocoa appealed to everyone. Since it was almost a recording breaking hot day (about 93 I think) we stuck to iced drinks - mostly mochas using the island coconut (a favorite), the dark magic or the caramel vanilla, with their choice of dark or milk cocoa (dark being the favorite), and toppign it with melted hagen das vanilla bean ice cream - yum!. Those who weren't coffee drinks had iced Lemon ZInger and green teas. Food was fabulous - the favorite dessesrt was by far the angel food cake squares - lemon curd mixed with lite cool whip, put on top of small squares of angel food cake and topped with a blackberry and a mint leaf. Everyone is asking what the next houseparty I throw! This also got us talking about having more "girl only" gatherings to explore new things. Oh, and they all loved the travel cups and calendars. The only suggestion I heard was that coffee brochures should have been added to the package showing the coffees available thru Green Mountain.

Everyone loved the coffee and Keruig coffee maker. We tried all the different flavors that came in my party pack and even some from my cupboard. I wish I had received more variety in my party pack. I didn't get any Blueberry, French Vanilla or the Nantucket Blend I see mentioned in other blogs. I know we had some of the Blueberry from what I had purchased, but the kids had already brewed them all. I didn't open each box of coffee until the day before my party to see what was in the variety pack or I would have ordered more of the flavored beforehand (my mistake)...

I have a couple guests ordering for father's day gifts and for their desks at work.. We had cheesecake, oreo cookie cake and carrot cake to go with the wonderful blends of coffee. My theme was welcome spring, so we shared flower seeds, and I purchased a couple flower puzzles to give as prizes. Whoever filled out the coffee tasting rating sheet was in a drawing for the prizes. Overall, my first house party was a HUGE success. With great products to share with friends. Thanks again Houseparty, Green Mountain Coffee and Keurig!!

We had a great time. We had a brunch and everyone enjoyed the food and the coffee. Everyone also thought the Keurig was a great machine.

This was a GREAT party. Everyone loved the fact that each person could have their own personal favorite - decaf for some, regular for others. Some liked flavored coffee, others prefered dark roast, even hot tea for the non coffee drinker. And hot chocolate for the kids!
Thanks Green Mountain & Keurig for such a fun party opportunity!

The favorite Green Mountain Coffee was the French Vanilla.

My guests loved the Keurig Brewer. It was so easy to use, I showed everyone how to use it and they were making there own coffee.

It was so fun to sample all the different kinds. Everyone loved trying all the flavors. I usually would just drink regular coffee, it was so fun to have such a variety.

We had apple pie, pineapple upside down cake, and crumb cake. Everyone seemed to really like the pineapple upside down cake!

I thought the party pack was awesome. I purchased small gift bags and put all the party pack items in the bags and added some of my own items such as gum and candy, and gave them to all my guests. They really seemed to love their gift bags.

Thank you Green Mountain Coffee and Keurig. Everyone really enjoyed themselves. What a fun day!!!!

This was the first house party I had. I must say it was alot of fun! Everyone liked the the Keurigh coffee maker and the Green Mountain Coffee. I was out shopping at the Outlet Mall and found some other flavors I picked up to sample. The hot chocolate was a big hit with the kids there and the Caramel Vanilla Nut I purchased was a big hit. My husband really enjoyed the Dark Magic! It went really well with the desserts I served.

I was a little concerned Saturday morning when I went to make a cup of coffee and the machine didn't work. My heart SANK! My husband came in and tried to help, but still...nothing. I thought it was sabotage! Apparently it was a K-Cup malfunction and not the Keurig...WHEW! The ladies at my party LOVED the machine and we all had a blast with the coffee tasting. The older ladies loved the Vermont Country Blend and the younger ladies leaned towards the Double Black Diamond. Everyone loved the Mocha Nut Fudge. The hot cocoa was "enjoyed" but wasn't received as anything special. Everyone raved about the coffee, though, and the coffee maker. They loved the Keurig and how FAST and SIMPLE it was to use. My guests also appreciated the fact that they were able to try out the coffee maker and sample the coffee without being obligated to purchase anything. They also loved their gift bags which contained the coffee mugs, calendars, literature and candy! I loved this party! By far the best one for me because my guests all brought delicious treats! We had a great afternoon of delicious coffee, wonderful treats, and great fellowship! Thanks, House Party!

The Keurig was a huge hit! Everybody loved the fact that they had so many options. The Green Mountain Nantucket blend seemed to be a favorite and everybody dug in to my homemade strawberry shortcake and lemon squares. I think that most of my guest saw the value of owning a Keurig and a few will even be buying within the week. We also enjoyed burning off some of that caffeine by having a Wii tournament and playing Apples to Apples. The next morning some of the girls and myself went on a shopping trip to NYC but before we took off we all filled up with some delicious coffee in our new mugs...Thank you Green Mountain and Keurig!!!

Oh, I forgot, I also put some coffee themed socks in the gift bags that I found at JoAnn's...we all had them on for our shopping trip in the city.

This was my first house party. Everyone that I invited really liked the Keurig coffee maker. There were some comments that the machine is a bit spendy. Everyone seemed to really enjoy the coffee. The couple people that tasted the hot chocolate thought that it was very bland. I served desserts with my coffee and it seemed to be a hit.

This was my first House Party & it was a huge hit. The Keurig was a huge hit and everyone had numerous cups of coffee...I can't believe how much coffee we went through! it looks like Dark Magic was a big favorite.
Since it was a gorgeous day in NY we moved the whole party outside- Keurig brewer and all. Everyone got to use their Keurig mugs & take them with them when they left. The party pack was great!
Since my party was a brunch we had everything from homemade bread to a sweet cinnamon cake & the coffee worked with everything. A consistently great cup everytime, regardless of what it was paired with.

I have never hosted a house party with such great feedback before. This party was by far my biggest turnout and the one withthe most positive comments. I have already had one person purchase a Keuring brewer witheth 20% offer, two others didn't use the website but went to the store with a coupon that would make the brewer even less than the houseparty offer, and now we can't wait for our next shipment of K Cups! I even had people call me today to ask if they could come back over for more coffee.

There were so many great coffees. I also bought extra so guests would have lots to choose from. Everyone loved the brewer and the coffee!!

We had a great time with everyone having fun using the Keurig brewer and enjoying the Green Mountain coffee, I also went online to show my guests how easy it is to belong to cafe express, so they don't have to worry about running out of coffee, tea or cocoa and they loved the site. I also went on the Keurig web site so they could see the brewer that would fit their families needs. Everyone was definately interested in the web sites. Needless to say the mugs and calendars were a big hit. Thanks Green Mountain and Keurig for making it a fun day with great quality products.

ginach said...

It was a great time! I purchased additional flavored coffees and teas to try (that would be my suggestion - everyone wanted to try out the flavors to find their favorite!). Mudslide, Wild Moutain Blueberry (which smells like a blueberry muffin baking) and the French Vanilla were favorites at my party. Also the Mango makes a fantastic iced tea! They all had a hard time choosing what to try and were amazed at the choices. It was great that the guests that preferred to drink decaf in the evening could have selections as well. Everyone wants their own brewers now and really appreciated the coupons and mugs!
