Six Sugars?!?!?!

Speaking of coffee, I did go through a Tim Horton's last week to get a coffee.  When I am at school all day, I order a large coffee, drink some on the drive and reheat the rest at lunch. 

I went through the drive-thru and ordered "a large coffee with two creams and two sugars."  As I was bumbling getting the radio turned down, looking for my coupon, and finding my money, the drive-thru employee repeated, "I'll have your large coffee with six sugars at the next window."  Six sugars?!?!?  When I laughed at corrected my order, the employee sounded almost relieved.  I think we both would have had a sugar headache just thinking about that much sugar in one cup of coffee. 

Mug Snuggie

I've seen several pictures of these mug snuggie things--not really sure what they are called.  I LOVE getting a cup of coffee from a coffee shop.  I think I have the balance down between "a sense of coffee entitlement" (aka--a coffee habit) and "a special treat just for me."  Now I have something cute to put around my cup.

Just for the record--I only can sew straight lines and have never made a pattern.  I traced this from a paper mug-thingy and tried my own.  Way to make my ninety-nine cent Tim Horton's coffee seem like something extra special!  Woohoo!  It doesn't take much to get me excited--ha! ha!

January Sewing

Here's my string jar by my sewing machine.  This is what I did in December and January.  Didn't sew much until recently.

I wonder if I can fill February's jar in February.  Could be my sewing goal for the month.
