Starbucks Cups

I like Starbucks coffee, really I do. I can't say that I go there all that often, though. Maybe once or twice a month. But what I really obsess over like is their cups. You can run through them the dishwasher countless time and the colors never fade. The cups don't chip easily, either. They are very durable. Plus, coffee tastes much better out of a good coffee cup - and I do have to have my coffee every morning.

The last cups I got from there were Valentine's Day cups. I got one for me and my hubby. He's much more tolerant of my obsession getting these cups if I get one for both of us. Plus they were on sale! Two for one! How could I resist.

Anyway, I felt it was time for a new cup. Hubby was gone this weekend and I needed to go my daughter's lacrosse game alone. I felt I would be fortified to do so with a cup of coffee to take with me. So I went to Starbucks, and this is my latest acquisition.
I also think this color combination is great, and the style is great inspiration for a quilt! One of those Denyse Schmidt inspired ones.

And my coffee tastes great in it.

Those are really cute! My Sara (yeah, she'll be 14 in a few weeks) LOVES Starbucks. We're lucky we don't have one in town cuz she'd want to go there all the time.

You are so right on about this mug! I haven't seen that one around here yet, so I guess I'd better go out and start looking for it bright and early tommorrow morning, don't you think? And then, I think we should make the "Starbuck's Mug Ispired Quilt: Round 1"...don't you?
