something new

I bought a new coffee mug yesterday. For those of you who don't drink coffee, don't read further because you'll just think I'm crazy. But for those coffee lovers out there, you know the necessity of the "perfect mug." You know that it's gotta fit nicely in your hands, the handle must be easy to hold, and most importantly, it must have it's own personality. (If you're not a coffee lover, this is where you're thinking I've gone off my rocker, so please, do us both a favor and stop reading!) Seriously, though, am I right, coffee lovers? Of course, the quality of the coffee is important. But, at least in my mind, the best tasting coffee deflates without the right mug. The mug I bought yesterday had been eyeing me for a couple days (yes, that's what I meant to write). It's bright, bold, confidant, and inspiring. And I think it knew that I need a little bit of those things every once in awhile. So, here I am enjoying a wonderful cup of coffee in the perfect mug for today.

You non-coffee lovers, I know you're still reading, so I'll say it for you. I may be a little bit crazy.

Karen - like the good Dallasite that I am, I spotted the mug during one of my Starbucks stops. they always have so many neat mugs; seems like every time I'm in there, there's a whole bunch more!

I absolutely understand! It also has to fit one's personality and most especially just plain make you happy. I only drink coffee out of mugs that I am emotionally attached to. Currently I have two that fit the bill: one for my morning cup and one for my afternoon coffee. And Greg bought my morning one for me; obviously an understanding coffee lover.
