Coffee or Tea and the Mugs You Drink From

Coffee... You like it or you don't. Or, more to the point, you LOVE it or you don't. That has been my experience, at any rate.

The coffee business has boomed over the last several years. Along with its growth in popularity are mugs, cups, and thermal mugs. Used to be you couldn't find a cup with wild graphics, someone's name, or your favorite pet on it and it was just that: A cup. There weren't many mugs out there. Maybe... just maybe the man of the house had a mug but those certainly weren't the choice of the then modern woman. No, no, no... coffee and tea were served in dainty cups.

In my opinion, cups don't hold enough coffee to drown a mouse let alone satiate my nearly-impossible-to-quench thirst and desire for the delicious, black, roasted bean concoction. And talk about workouts to refill. No sooner had the coffee been poured than it was gulped then refilled, gulped then refilled, and repeat until the pot is empty. I've seen female coffee drinkers with leg muscles a race horse would envy because she loved her coffee.

And... I love my mug. I have one I use the most while others - one of which my daughter made when she was in high school - set in the cabinet; jealousy seeping from their unused interiors. My favorite cup is big. It's colorful. It has a huge handle my four fingers can slip through. (Those descriptions sound oddly like my husband.) Best of all, I can fill it to the brim and not refill it for at least five minutes.

Coffee mugs and thermals are great giveaways and gifts. In fact, my mom - also a coffee lover - collected mugs for years and years. I bet she's got a hundred of them at which my dad can only shake his head and mutter his mantra, "It makes me no never mind..." before he launches into mild complaining about her collection as well as her need to buy expensive coffee.

Below you'll find my favorite mugs with graphics. Some are funny, some pretty, some raunchy and ugly and some just plain poignant.

Also, there are a couple of surveys I hope you take the time to answer. If not, then give me a "thumbs up" and perhaps you'll find something you can't wait to share.

Now that the holidays are near, I envision myself sipping mulled wine from my favorite mug as I sit next to a bright warm fire, hands wrapped around the mug sniffing the fumes. Well, that ain't going to happen. I don't have a fire place!

Pre-ground Coffee vs Fresh Bean Grind

Think there's no difference between buying pre-ground coffee and whole coffee bean you grind yourself? Think again... There's an enormous difference in taste. Test it yourself and discover the difference.

What the heck is a spoonerism, you ask? Well, I'll tell you... A spoonerism is two words whose letters have been switched. For instance, Pig Dung becomes Dig Pung, Pig Rot becomes Rig Pot, and Smart Cookie becomes Cart Smookie. Get it? (yes, I see that Smookie was created from the first two letters of Smart. I liked the taste of Smookie more than Sookie, is all)

    I have a vast collection of coffee mugs which includes one from each state I have visited. Currently that number is 44. My favorite mug is one from Caribou Coffee Minnesota. It says "Life is short, stay awake for it."
    Another favorite is a very colorful Happy Birthday mug I got one year with balloons on it.

I don't know what to name this!

I guess it's an enticer...

I sat here for five minutes trying to figure out what to title this thing... Finally gave up. It's an Amazon do-hicky. That's all I know.
