It's the small things...
Sat, 17 Mar 2012 4 Comments For the past several months, any time I have had anyone over and coffee was involved, I have been somewhat embarrassed that I don't have mugs that match. Or are at least similar in colour. Perhaps I'm getting old, but I think I am over totally mismatched vintage dishes. I have been wanting to get new mugs for a while and never got around to it. Today was a gorgeous day here in Ottawa (MILD temps!) so my husband and I decided to run a couple errands this afternoon. While he was in an electronics shop I went to Homesense, and picked out some white mugs. Since it's a discount store selling "leftovers" of course they didn't have 8 or 10 of the same mug so I bought 4 of 2 different types but OMG they are ALL WHITE! And now I can relax about my mug selection. See, it's the small things that keep me satiated. (The set that looks plain actually has slightly raised circles all around about halfway up - they weren't showing up on camera).

I think I'll stop by for a cup of coffee.
Thanks Nancy!
Helen, come on over. YOU'RE ALL INVITED! ;)
Hahah, yes the mixed-matched coffee mugs we all love and have can be a bit silly when guests are over.. but hey! I picked this one up in NYC and that one over there was handmade.. and this one is such a nice shade of blue!
