Another Pretty Cup

I saw this mug at Office Depot and fell in love with it. It is taller and a bit more slender than a normal mug.

Food & Cute - Two of My Favorite Things

One of my favorite things about this season is that Blue Bell starts selling their amazingly delicious peppermint ice cream. It is, without a doubt, my favorite ice cream of all time. And doesn't it look pretty in that adorable little penguin cup I got at Target?!

I also found those super cute kawaii food stickers at Borders today and couldn't pass them up! ^_^

In other news, I was busy making dinosaurs and snails out of gum paste during my make-up class this week (while the rest of the class was making flowers). It was pretty fun. The dinosaur's tail broke off, but here's a picture of my little snail!

Adorable Mugs From Target

I got these adorable mugs from Target back in February and I just giggle with glee every time I open my cupboard and see them. I mean, aren't they so cute?!

Of Mermaids and Beautiful Browns

As always, click the images for a larger view.

I walked into Starbucks the other day, and as usual, I perused the coffee mug rack before making my way to the counter. Instantly, I was drawn to a new display of beautiful brown mugs. What is this?! A mermaid mug?! Certainly it was inevitable that the Starbucks mermaid would make her way onto a coffee mug, but this was outstanding! I knew I was going to buy it before I even picked up, before I had even looked at the price tag. Not only is it covered in a swirly, oceany mermaid scene, but it's got the most gorgeous mixture of deep browns and bronzes (on a creamy colored mug). I am in. love. with this mug!

A Slight Obsession

I've come to accept the fact that I have a slight obsession with coffee mugs. Kim has helped me to embrace this, and I will soon be putting my coffee mug collection on display. I even bought these adorable art cards of cute little tea and coffee cup illustrations to hang near the display!

I am rather gimped lately - in short, my right wrist/hand is inoperable at the moment, and my left wrist is feeling the pressure of being in the spotlight. I've taken some time off of work because of this, and in an attempt to keep me from using my hands, my sister has been taking me places. Today we went to the Museum of Fine Arts to see the Pompeii exhibit (high five!).

I saw the most adorable set of espresso mugs and saucers in the gift shop and I couldn't resist. Three things I love: cups, rainbows, and clever, aesthetically pleasing displays! Yay! I realize these photos are rather sub-par, but come on and give me a break, will ya? I'm doing everything left-handed here!
