A Mugaholics almost Perfect Mug

Now, you all know I’m a Phillies Phan. Yes, I am disappointed that we didn’t win the World Series. I watched every game. It was a hard pill to swallow, but the better team did win. And I congratulate the Yankees on their win.
Between games I was looking on line for some Phillies items. Thought they would be good Christmas presents. But since they didn’t go all the way this year, I decided that it just wouldn’t be right to give the gifts I was thinking about. Instead, I went looking for Yankee items. No, not for me to give, but I’m sure someone out there is a Yankee fan and would like to know where to look for something that is “Yankees”.

I have to be honest, I didn’t look to hard. It was hard for me not being a fan and all. Then too, my computer skills are getting better, but it still takes me for ever to do anything like that. But I really did look. And I found tons of sites that have jerseys, hats and tee shirts. You can find pictures, banners, flags and pennants. Not good enough I thought, you can get that in any store right about now. So I kept looking.

Then I found it. A coffee (or tea if you prefer) mug. But not just any mug. This one has that nostalgic look and feel to it. And the color! A beautiful, and I do mean a rich blue. Just looking at it makes me almost wish I was a Yankee fan. I have to confess, I really do love the look of that mug. Well, everything except the New York Yankee logo that is.

I will tell you right now, if it had a Phillie logo, I would have had my coffee in it this morning. But the Phillies color is red, and I am not really a red person. But I do love the color blue. And I guess that is why I like this mug so much, the color. Just look at it, and tell me that isn’t the most beautiful color blue mug you have ever seen. Okay, I know you have to click on the link and all, so do it and then tell me that is not a beautiful mug!

My hubby says I’m a mugaholic. I have more mugs than you can shake a stick at. When ever I go away on vacation, I buy a mug. Every time my Dad goes away, he brings me a mug. If I see a mug that really catches my eye and won’t let go, I get it. And I am having a hard time not getting this mug. But it is the Yankees and not the Phillies. And that is the only reason I’m not drinking out of it right now.
