does everyone have a favorite cup they like to drink their coffee tea or cocoa out of. well i know you do,i do too. this morning,though,the handle came rite off of mine,and i was sorely dismayed having to throw my favorite cup into the recycling bin,and so started a day where i went from store to store looking for that rite cup. each cup i picked up,was either too small or too square or even too deep.one was for caffe latte,one for cappuchino,one for expresso,one especially made for tea,with an infuser too.who knew there were so many cups for different beverages! not i!! well i finally found one,i have fiestaware,and the manufacturer, makes this very large cup in many colors. i picked out an aqua blue cup,brought it home,washed it out and prepared myself a giant cup of apple chamomille tea.i couldnt wait to take it on the front porch and sit and sip. i poured the water and covered the tea to let it steep. when i picked up the cup i found it was so heavy that my arthritic fingers on my rite hand couldnt manage to hold it,so down it went.the tea splashed all over the place but the cup didnt break. that fiestaware is like iron!! so im back to the smaller fiesta cups,one that i can manage to hang on to..so goes the old adage bigger is not better..LOLLOL...im putting a plant in the bigger one...LOL..hugs mindy
