If nature could make a coffee mug

Does nature ever speak to you?
Do you ever feel like it is calling your name?
Do you wake up in the middle of night and ask yourself "What would nature's coffee cup look like if it made one?"

Well, if you said YES to the last question then you're in luck!

I have found the coffee mug that nature made!

SHHHAAAZAM!

Now don't be fooled. This coffee mug is one from nature. And no I'm not just saying that because there is a leaf on it. (okay yes I am)

You caught me, I'm a fraud. But who cares, this is just a blog about mugs. Anywho! Let's get another picture of the mug up here.

Oh how nature can speak to you from this mug. Nature says, "Thanks for using this mug instead of a billion paper coffee cups a year!"

Thanks to Jaime R. for sending this mug in! Keep 'em coming people!


Does this coffee mug have one leaf or two on it? You decide!

Animal Mug

Hello hello!

I'm here with another mug just for your liking. This next mug is probably the first mug I received in college. In fact, now that I think about... It was my first mug in college. Not to be confused with my first mug I purchased in college. Here's the story with this mug:

Growing up, a question adults and peers always asked me is, "What's your favorite animal?" Now my favorite animal has changed over the years but at first it was a frog and later on, in an attempt to be different,a flamingo. This life changing decision of course occurred in middle school. BIG MISTAKE! Well, not a big mistake to like flamingos, but a big mistake to tell your family that you like flamingos. Every Christmas, birthday, and "just for the heck of it," I received a flamingo item. The items I now have consist of flamingo socks, stuff animals and yes...even a coffee mug!

My grandma gave me a matching set of plates, bowls, and mugs when I went off to college. By this time I was so sick of flamingos but could not refuse the kind gesture as these were things I needed. I don't hate flamingos...don't get me wrong, I just hate having a bunch of flamingo stuff that I don't know what to do with!

So here is the infamous flamingo mug!

Just look at that wonderful brown trim...It's so interesting....isn't it?

And now for the close up.

Makes you want to be a flamingo doesn't it?

Needless to say I still have this one mug (I gave the rest of the set away to a roommate who is continuing on to her masters). I love this mug! You can't tell by the picture but it is one big coffee mug and it fits nicely in my hands.

Oh...and now I've moved on to giraffes. So far I have received one metal and one stuffed animal giraffe. Not sick of them yet...but there is still time for that.


So what's you favorite animal? Do you receive a junk load of animal paraphernalia for gifts?
