For years when driving coffee at home, I would only drink it off my Denny’s mug.

 

I still this mug from a Denny’s in Queensbury one night after a summer full of many late night Denny’s trips. I loved that it had the Denny’s logo printed on it. I hope that restaurant forgives me, but it was a memorable summer, we even got kicked out of Denny’s once for playing cards there while drinking coffee and eating greasy appetizers.

Okay, not kicked out. But told we had to stop playing cards. According to the waitress who told us this, the manager said playing cards prevented ‘customer turnover.’ when we replied that there is only two other tables with customers in the entire restaurant and that it was near 2 a.m., she just shrugged her shoulders.

I read someplace that Denny’s doesn’t put the logo on their coffee mugs in there restaurants anymore because so many people stole them. You can buy Denny’s coffee mugs with a logos on them but not drink from them in restaurants. I don’t know if that’s true or not. I haven’t been to a Denny’s in probably 8 years. Regardless, this mug is probably 20 years old now and my favorite coffee mug.

Today, I used two different mug. My mustache mug was a gift from my mother-in-law several years ago. it is been my go-to coffee mug at work. Kids absolutely loved that it just had this really weird mustache face on the front of it.

At at home, Danny mug got me close to 4 full cups of coffee from my French press. that would take me well into the morning, and I feel like I’m drink a lot of coffee at that point.

At work, I would drink three to four mugs of the mustache mug of coffee each day. Sometimes more oh, because kids used to love making me coffee and I could never say no and tey asked.

However, the mustache mug only gets full twice from a French press, and not even to the top. I’m already done with my French press a coffee and it’s 9 am.

Itit does seem to illustrate the difference in the amount of coffee I drank at work versus the amount of coffee I drink at home. Since I’m going to be staying home for the next year, do I resort to the mustache mug and drink from that knowing I’ll drink more coffee comparable to what I drink at work or do I stick to the Denny’s mug which is my traditional mug at home.

I’m probably going to fall back to the Denny’s mug just because I enjoy drinking out of that mug so much more than the mustache mug. I feel like the mustache mug is for sure, in the Denny’s mug is just comfort.
