Am Addicted To Coffee and to …. MUGS!!!
Am a certified coffeeholic!! Yeah, used to have a notebook once that states “Coffee Addict” on the front cover and my student asked … why’d do you like coffee so much? I said it tastes loads better than beer.
My addiction to coffee started about a year earlier than I started drinking beer, making that around 13 years old …. rough estimate … I started drinking beer at the age of 14 and a half and quit at the age of 21. I love coffee plain and simple … with sugar and cream. It served as my tonic during those long weeeee hours of studying for major exams, during those long nights of working on papers and other projects and it still serves as my tonic as I work online during the day and during the night. I was told by a friend once that its amazing how I drink loads of coffee but don’t smoke, apparently they’re s’pose to go hand in hand.
At the age of 12 I had my first mug, nothing special about it … its plain looking but it was a gift so I treasured it. As years wore on, during seminars and school activities and parties what used to be a favorite give away were those cute mini coffee mugs tied with a ribbon and had a customized print on the body. I had loads of those … it became a habit as years wore on that everytime I drop by the glassware section of a mall I almost always end up buying one. Different color, size and design. Today was no exception … I was looking for a huge one … wherein you can place at least three regular mugful servings in it. I found two actually, one was smaller than the other but it has a very cute packaging … the round container it came in was to die for so I bought it. The other one was what I was really looking for, tall, can contain 500 ml of coffee and with cute graphics on the body.
Those two above are the mugs I bought earlier … I don’t need two but I can’t decide which one to buy so I bought both. Hehehehe … to add to my collection.
It’s like if ashtray is to smokers then its coffee mugs to coffee addicts like me!
