Tea Break

Do you enjoy a hot cup of tea or coffee during the day as a way to stop, rest and just be?

A dear friend  mentioned over Easter that beautiful coffee mugs were important to her. She said that they added to her pleasant experience of a tea break.

She went on to explain that she had different mugs for different hot beverages and she enjoyed adding to her collection.

I thought of my mug collection; some practical, some pretty and a few thoughtful presents that remind me of the people who gifted them to me.

I thought that perhaps it was time to choose a mug or even a cup and saucer.... just for me.

I visited the local gift/cookware shop this morning and I spotted a few nice ones but nothing that totally took my fancy.

As I was leaving the shop I glanced at some boxed mugs near the front of the stop.

Ooooohh.

Just right.

Pretty and feminine.

In terms of design, it is a nice size and shape and I always love bright colours on a white/cream background.

Yay for pretty mugs that feel good.

Do you have a favourite mug that adds to your pleasure of a tea break?
