"I love drinking my tea out of this mug, it's the perfect size, nice and sturdy and warms my hands without burning them."
"This is my new favorite mug! The historic botanical drawing is almost 150 years old from a US Report of the Commissioner of Agriculture."
OK, yes, all mugs can be nice, but these wide, flatter, somewhat shorter mugs just really feel good. They've got a heft to them, which I like, but if you are used to Corelle or another lighter material, this may not be...I can't bring myself to make the pun. Also, the swirly design on the bottom inside is actually a raised design, not decorative, which pleases me for a reason I can't quite explain. (I do miss the green mugs!)
I love my ceramic mug. It's perfect for tea and coffee. I want a second one for literally no reason because it's so easy to clean so there's no reason to buy a second one other than it would be best to have a set.
I received this mug as a gift yesterday and wanted to share how perfect it is...it's just the right size and feels great in your hands.
