FUN MONDAY - My coffee mug




Ever since mugs moved into Belgium in the 80th, I banned all coffee cups for our daily use and replaced them by mugs which are more practical and they are also so nice, can be personalized or funny.

Last months my favorite cup, an orange one with a cute cat on it (of course) fell on the tiles and broke. For a couple of weeks I was looking for one to replace it, but as it is always, when you are looking for something special you don't find it and when you don't look at all it's suddenly there. And that happened to me last week and gave me the idea for this Fun Monday.

I found two similar mugs, one with a red and one with a blue handle. The red one is now for coffee and the blue one for tea.






and here is my coffee mug, the other one for tea hangs together with different mugs on a holder.

I can only confirm that my coffee tastes much better in my new mug !

Please note that our next Fun Monday host on May 5th is Sayre

I also wanted to suggest that Fun Monday topics should be simple, funny and easy as the name says. A lot of people hesitated to participate because the topics became too complicated and therefore Fun Monday nearly died.

WEEKLY WINNERS


More participants here at Sarcastic Mom

THE weekly winner was when I discovered cat Arthur on the 3rd floor of the unfinished house behind our garden ! When he saw me he screamed a loud meauw !



Arthur the inspector of unfinished work



then he catched this poor bird. The funniest thing was, shortsighted as I am I took the picture without seeing the bird in his mouth !

On Saturday I went to a medieval festival in a castle I had never been.









For those who are on diet after winter, there were sausages as temptations



I met chevaliers and knights





and also attended a fashion show from the 13th til 14th century



I admired a guy with an owl which had such a funny and cute face (the owl not the guy)



petted this python



and the soft skin of this albino python.




and saw also falcons

I will write and show more about this castle "château de Corroy on Tuesday in "My World"
