    Drink my coffee in my Tim Hortons Mugs, Luckily a have a few, tea in a white china mug. I thought I was the only one that was so picky. Glad to realize I'm as normal as other quilters

    I like my coffee in big mugs, not giant sized ones but ones that would hold about 1 1/2 cups (about 9 oz.) of coffee . DH likes smaller cups which is good because he has received 3 big mugs as gifts and I used them all the time, two of them have scenes of New York City bridges and the other a sweet poem to Grandpa from one of our granddaughters. I also drink tea in those mugs but when I want to feel special or need a little lift I drink my tea in a china cup and saucer. May in Jersey

    Ain't that the truth!

    My tea mug came from a trip to Cannery Row (California), a picture of my two grandchildren adorn my morning coffee mug, and Cocoa goes in a special "MOM" mug my daughter gave me many years ago.

    I like my tall mugs. I have three. One is a zebra print, one is a reindeer and one a friend sent me that has a sewing saying on it (sewing keeps me in stitches) on it. Use them all the time.

    I have a few mugs I love. One says "Do One Thing Every Day That Scares You" (Eleanor Roosevelt) - I like to be reminded to take some risks. I have another that says "I'm reading, don't bother me" that my daughter bought me - it's a favorite.

    I have a beautiful floral mug my other daughter bought me when I moved to NC and I feel loved when I use it. And I have one more mug - I had a bunch of mugs made when we completed a large restructure at work that you only got as an inaugural member of the new team. It reminds me of a significant professional success.

    Love them all for different reasons!

    I have 4 mugs that I prefer to use. My family thinks I'm crazy. I yam who I yam. LOL! Anyway, I have one with blue shells on it from Anna Maria Island, one with a cow on it (I love cows), one that was a freebie from the local Tops Friendly Market, and a large snowman mug that I usually use in the winter months. :-)

    I have an over sized mug that I like to drink coffee out of.

    It is a Starbucks mug, but from the UAE and has a camel on it.

    Hubby brought it back about 12 yrs ago... when we were dating. The shoes he purchased for me on the same trip don't fit, but his coffee mug sure does!! :D
