The Perfect Coffee Cup

The perfect coffee cup?

There are those things worth talking about,

And then there are those things we don't have time for.

Like talking about a cup.

Then again, it's a pretty important vessel. It holds that one drink that many people the world over use to hold their morning brew, the key that starts the day.

This cup fits well in the hands, and as you look down at your coffee, you realize that the cup matters. It has substance, it has heft, there is weight to it.

You want something of substance to hold the black sunshine that launches you into the world with extra pep.

I bought this cup at the Starbucks in my neighborhood. It is just the right size for my hands, and written on the side is everything you need to know --- the Starbucks name, and the year they began, 1971. That also happens to be the year that my sister was born, but that's an entirely different beginning, a different story.

I took the photo above on February 1, 2002, at about 9 in the morning.

Things worth talking about? Yes, it is one. Its tactile qualities will nicely complement your morning, whatever you put in it.
