I love vintage stuff. Ironstone, especially!
So when I saw this over sized mug on Etsy, I
just had to have it! Pretty color, pretty design...perfect!
I thought those were pine cones when I bought it but when
the package arrived I looked a little more closely.....
Hops? Lol...of course! Why didn't I notice that before?
But I don't mind. You can drink coffee from a beer mug, right?
I don't really enjoy beer...maybe I'll put some White Zinfandel in
it some terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.

I drink coffee from a beer mug too! Just the right size. Yours is very lovely.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it pretty? Love the transferware and the size is huge!
DeleteWhite Zinfandel . . . . ah! that's your Achilles heel . . . lol
ReplyDeleteNice mug for coffee, beer or indeed White Zinfandel . . .
Nice find . .. :)
Well, I'm really more of a celebratory/holiday drinker. :)
DeleteI'd drink coffee from a beer mug, or any other kind of mug.
ReplyDeleteBeer? I'd drink that straight from the bottle.
What? Not on tap at your place? :)
DeleteNo... But I like the way you think.
DeleteDefinitely hops, and very handsome too. But never never drink alcohol from china!
ReplyDeleteWell, it's not fine china...more like stoneware...like a German beer stein.
DeleteBut I'll stick to coffee with it.:)
But still.... Stick to glass with your wine. There's something wrong about alcohol from porcelain / pottery / ironstone. It doesn't taste the same.
DeleteNo worries...it just seems wrong, doesn't? I'll get out a crystal stemmed glass for my wine. :)
Deletehaha can suck back the coffee in anything at all
ReplyDeleteThere at your hall
But if you have such a day
Can pull a double play
Never liked beer one bit
To me always tasted worse than spit
I do agree...
Deleteisn't tempting at all to me!
Great mug for any kind of beverage!
ReplyDeleteI think so! :)
DeleteGreat mug for any kind of beverage!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely! ;)
DeleteLove the mug. Bet it makes for some great sipping of anything you like.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to trying it out! Haven't done that yet...had
Deleteto give it a good washing first!
Like the "beer" mug! Like the beer idea. Or the wine. Just hope you never really have one of those days you described, though. Wine can be had on really, really GOOD days too.
ReplyDeleteI'd much rather drink a glass a wine just for the fun of it than to dull the pain
Deleteof a bad day. haha. I've done both!
It's your cup....you can drink anything YOU want out of it :-)
ReplyDeleteYes, that's true!
DeleteI love mugs too and yours is so pretty! There are just the cutest things on Etsy ;).... Beer, yuck! I don't thing it would taste good in anything. But a little vino, just as you alluded to...can make a bad day go away!
ReplyDeleteI do agree about etsy...so fun just to browse through the shops!
DeleteYou can drink coffee from anything...if you are desperate enough...which I would be any morning!!
ReplyDeleteyep...it's the first thing I do when I open my eyes! haha.
DeleteI like it - good find! Hope you don't have one of those no good days anytime soon. :)
ReplyDeleteMe, too! haha.
DeleteI love a big mug....to start a very very good day!
ReplyDeleteYes...and the good days really do outnumber the bad, by far!
DeleteHi Betsy - wonderful mug ... love the decoration ... hops - such a good idea. Coffee is better than beer .. cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteYes, I do agree! And this mug will hold plenty of coffee!
DeleteIt's a beautiful mug!! Lots of happy coffees :-)
ReplyDeleteExactly! :)
