I don't know how it began, possibly in the 6th grade when I saw my mom come home with that white cup and signature green little mermaid lady on it? Or when I was studying senior (joking I didn't study senior year!?) for all my big exams.
* But I need coffee. *
Me and the boy's morning routine always starts with someone offering to make coffee. (Ok...sometimes I beg not to for those beloved 5 more minutes of bed time)
I'm not a snob when it comes to coffee, although I do enjoy indulging in a $5 soy latte everyone once and a while. Worth it.
I do wish I lived in a house where all the coffee cups were coordinated, but I think this might be an anomaly. Coffee cups were not designed to match, coordinate or do anything to resemble a cohesive unit in the kitchen.
You have father's day mugs, mothers day mugs, happy birthday mugs, Drink more coffee mugs (you know what I'm talking about...the reeeaaallly OVERSIZED mugs), Ugly-Plain-Small-White-Hotel Mug your husband brought home from a business trip. , travel mug, Stained mug (Probably your favorite), I could go on.
BUT.
What if we lived in a world where all of our mugs went together?
