My favorite mug <3
I have used this mug every day for years! I first got the one on the right super on sale at renegade craft fair and became obsessed with it. Last year, I put some way too hot water in it and the porcelain cracked so it is no longer usable. :( I ordered a new one (and it is a bit bigger and thicker than my old one!) and I am now using the old one to hold all of my pens, etc. It is the perfect size and shape and has the perfect handle too.
Franca is a local Brooklyn-based ceramic studio. Some of their other designs are really cool, would rec checking them out! And I noticed they’re having 20% off right now for mother’s day🫢

I won the brown cow mug in a contest where you had to collect yogurt container lids. For that brief time, I was quite addicted to brown cow yogurt, but mostly just wanted this mug. Even though it's a little chipped now, I still love it for my java indulgences.
For non-Matcha teas, I often choose this mug I got from Minx Factory in Barcelona. I am a huge fan of theirs. I had a pastel mug previously but it broke when I moved back to Columbus from Chicago.

(1) Variety cowgirl mug — just a nice illustration, nothing crazy. The mug is really weighty and reminds me of diner mugs. Hey jennie peep their merch from 5(?) years ago.
(2) Hasami porcelain mug — this is a nerd purchase, I ask for one every year for secret Santa and it’s been 3 years straight of getting these beauties. Sort of a pain to wash but worth the effort. The texture alone is a reward in itself.
(3) Quiet Mountain Cafe mug — printed on dinex mugs which are usually reserved for hospitals / summer camps, it’s very nostalgic. But the cool thing here is that this mug was releasing and I was so excited to support a local brand and it turns out my wife went into labor that morning!!! I messaged them and asked if there was any way he’d hold a set for me and he did. By the time we got back home the mug had arrived and it was my first cup of coffee as a dad. Will always cherish this mug.

as we all (pi fyi users) know, being into shit is cool.
i’ve been thinking about how in the early days of facebook rather than liking pages you would “become a fan” of them and i just love that verbage. so sweet and precious

As Perfectly Imperfect subscribers know, being into shit is cool. This was an early rec I made on the PI.FYI app, inspired by Facebook’s “like” feature formerly being called “become a fan” because I find the verbiage so sweet and so supportive. It’ll always be way cooler to be an embarrassing superfan than to have 0 interests.
