In December of 2008, I had just relocated to North Carolina from New York when I came up with the idea of a "floating mug". My wife and I had just recently married and we purchased our first home along with all new furniture.

So I'm a huge tea drinker, and I have come across numerous designs for cups that have some kind of built in coaster, however, the design's fell short of what I was looking for. After a great deal of research, I managed to find and work with a manufacturer in China to create the original prototype mugs for me, which I've been using for the past few years. The money pledged will be used to manufacture a master mold of both the mug and and the handle. Thanks for your support Special thanks to: Shapeways.

I put on my fluffiest sweatshirt and cuddled up in bed and watched super classy shows like Jersey Shore and Teen Mom 2. Keepin’ things elegant, you know. I was joyous; absolutely blissful. Until, without any warning, some scary evil malicious malevolent forceful force came over me and I was craving chocolate frosting something fierce. No amount of Gossip Girl was going to help me and I knew it, so I gave in.

But chocolate frosting? It’s like eating chocolate clouds off a spoon.

All about our coffee, subscriptions, and online ordering | Hands-On Coffee Roasters. These large Supremo beans produce a classic Colombian brew that is mild and very well-balanced. Despite it's mildness there is still a caramel sweetness, silky smooth mouth-feel and minimal bitterness. This is a great all-rounder of a coffee, good for drinking at any time and great with food. Our roaster is sure he can detect tobacco undertones in there too, so he's planning on trying together with a Cuban cigar! This Supremo should not be confused with other cheaper Colombian beans......Great as a filter coffee, interesting as a sweet tasting espresso.

Rainbow psychedelic cupcakes. Chocolate Espresso Cookies | Petite Kitchenesse. Where did February go? What did I do? Apparently, I made coffee cake—that was a good idea. I joyfully stomped around in the giant puddles brought about by enormous mounds of snow melting in near-60° weather. I slipped and fell on my butt in front of the fire department the following day, when the melted snow turned to sheets of ice on a 12° morning. Not cool, Nature. Not cool. (And can you believe that not one strapping young fireman came running out to save me?

The least we can do is try to minimize that impact. In an ideal world, everyone has the time to sit down with a ceramic mug and enjoy their coffee until it’s gone. However, in real life people have things to do and places to go—so they take their coffee with them.

All of those cups add up (500 Billion per year) and they do a great job of ruining the drinking experience as well. For the last year, I’ve been trying to find the best travel cup for my coffee. So I partnered with the Mug Users Guild to bring DCILY fans a reusable cup that works great, looks great and lets the world know how you feel about all those paper cups.
