Dana-bee mentioned to me some time ago that there were some really cute mugs at Starbuck’s with a little coffee “bean” on the front of it. This is significant because that is an affectionate term we use with Audrey Anne. Our little Coco bean which has turned into “the bean”. As I looked for these mugs I discovered something much better. Good size tea cups with matching saucers that were utterly cute! I had to have them. But with the wisdom and good sense of Brendan (my brother in law), I knew that they would go on sale and I wouldn’t have to pay the absurd price of $12.95 each! So I waited and waited. And finally, they have gone on sale. And bless his heart, Brendan has been scouting the local Starbuck’s for me and found 4 of them for $5 each. And I came across two more myself. Yippee! They are strawberries and blueberries.
The highlight of my morning was drinking a hot cup of joe from my blueberry teacup on the most lovely of all saucers! As I titled this entry, “Ahhh, the little things in life.”
What little things have you been enjoying lately?
Oooh, I can’t wait to drink tea out of the blueberry mug! Or rasberry. I’m not picky. But if there were homemade Shanel pastries or Ivan coffee cake to go with it, I wouldn’t complain. (hint, hint)
