To start with, I hate to share utensils with people. I have a particular cup for my coffee and I don’t share it with others as I am so scared of contracting Herpes from people
.

In all honesty if a visitor uses my cup I will try to keep my cool and not yell at them but I will politely tell them afterwards not to use it again.

neilamarcano 5 months ago

Sharing a cup is not my thing, that's why I'm selective about visiting cups, can you imagine I'd care if that happens😁

Wow, that's an interesting question. I am jealous of my mug, it is unmistakable because it has my name on it; it was a gift from a friend. I love my mug and take great care of it. When my husband uses it, I tell him "use your mug" 🤣. Here I leave you a picture although many of you should already know what it is. Normally, visitors don't use my mug but it makes me uncomfortable to see the mug in other hands. (Traductor Deepl)

Guao, es una pregunta interesante. Soy celosa con mi taza, es inconfundible porque tiene mi nombre; fue un regalo que me hizo una amiga. Amo mi taza y la cuido mucho. Cuando mi esposo la usa, le digo "usa tu taza" 🤣. Aquí les dejo una foto aunque muchos ya deben saber cuál es. Normalmente, las visitas no usan mi taza pero me incomoda ver la taza en otras manos.

I think your mug is unmistakable, no one should use it, unless they have the same name as you, hehehe.

I'm also very jealous with my mug, I don't like anyone to use it, especially not the visitor!

You have a beautiful cup. By reading what you write we understand how special this mug is for you, more than the object itself is the emotional value it carries.

As a general rule at my home, my coffee cups serve only my coffee and no one has the chance to use them even once. 😁

I love my espresso coffee cup and have a special feeling towards it. It is a very precious present from a Japanese friend and I have it for more than 10 years now.

I think it has the best size for a 40 ml espresso shot. If anyone ever breaks it, it will be the saddest day in a very longn period of time. 😁

About 5 years ago my wife made me a present and bought me a set of DeLonghi espresso glass cups. I loved them, because they were quite perfect. One day my wife accidentally broke one of them and I continued using the other one, but one day… a guest came home, I decided to serve coffee in it and that was the last time someone used it… Broken… just as broken as I was in that day. 😁

From that day, I am the only person using my espresso coffee cup.

Hello! In these pictures you can see your mug in all its beauty. The blue of the ornament is extraordinary!!! To have kept it so long is a work of care, affection (and zeal). I wish it will last you all your life and you can inherit it intact! However, there is a Japanese art, which I have no doubt you know, kintsugi. I find it very beautiful to inscribe affection in a history of scars.
Long live your Japanese mug!

mdosev 5 months ago

Japanese art has always been very interesting for me and it has some special pure beauty… simple and clean! I love this coffee cup!

antoniarhuiz 5 months ago

Experience lived, learning gained. All the mugs I have have been gifts but the one I use is quite special because it was labeled exclusively for me. The day they break the handle, I throw it away because I don't like broken mugs. 🌼🌼🌷💐🌻☕

marlyncabrera 5 months ago

My most personal coffee mug is like 10 years old as well. And it's also breakable. Long live your Japanese mug! It's really pretty; I hope it survives your kids 😄

Glass mugs have a short life expectancy. The reason seems obvious, but ceramic mugs don't like to land on the floor so easily, or bang into other things so easily. If I had a mug store, I would include a lot of translucent glass mugs on my display shelves; this would ensure that I sell a lot of them because they don't last much 🤣

mdosev 5 months ago

Selling glass mugs or shots is a good decision! 😁 you have some excellent business spirit!

I like to drink coffee from transparent glass cups. It really shows the beauty of coffee. The blue color also makes the ceramic cup very beautiful.

I do NOT like when a visitor drinks from my coffee cup.

As a kid, I got mad at my mum for serving a visitor tea in my teacup.

My mum asked me why I did not like it, and I said,
"I do not want a stranger to drink from my tea cup because I don't know where their mouths have been."

My mother was not amused and I got a good spanking for being rude.

Now, when I see my husband serve visitors coffee in my coffee cup, I feel betrayed, but I do not tell him because he will tell the visitors and embarrass me.😂

Maybe you can keep your cup somewhere where he can't find it.

millycf1976 5 months ago

Haha! If hubby is the one making coffee for a visitor, I might refuse a coffee and quickly grab my cup and hide it.
It's hilarious to watch him looking for my cup in the cupboard. After he serves the visitor in another cup, I'll sneakily place my cup back in the cupboard. Then I might say, I change my mind, I'll have a coffee... reach for my cup... and he'll say, "I was looking for that". ... and I reply, "Oh, were you?" 😂 🤣

Since I was little I didn't have a cup, I felt bad that visitors were served in our cups, we were many families together, I didn't really like drinking from a cup every day, to do so I had to wash the cup myself🤭

Haha! My mum insisted on serving visitors from "my cup" so I would volunteer to wash the cup when visitors left.
Everyone in my family ridiculed me because I spent about half an hour washing the cup, pouting my mouth, and grumbling about catching germs from strangers.

My husband has a very lax tongue too, to make me look bad totally on purpose when it comes to this "nonsense" of mine--"nonsense" 😒--It's something that amuses him. So I hold my tongue when visitors are present.

About that teacup, my mother had the same attitude. She wouldn't let me have "my own" things. Everything was everyone's in my house; we "had to share" Damn it! 😂

millycf1976 5 months ago

sandracabrera 5 months ago

I have always thought, @marlyncabrera, that individual, personal things are very important, not everything can be collective.
As for whether or not to lend coffee cups, that is also very personal and only a person who is initiated into coffee rituals understands it.

separador de cafe.png

marlyncabrera 5 months ago

Totally. I understand that sharing is healthy because it makes us aware; it's a fact that we cannot value the generosity that others have with us if we ourselves are not generous. This is just as true as the fact that true coffee drinkers can be misunderstood by people who don't drink coffee or are just occasional drinkers. The "this is my cup" thing is an old habit for a reason 👵

Kids always tell the truth and they never regret. That’s why they are so pure. Maybe more people should be like them…😁

I also don’t like people to drink of my precious coffee cups, because they have some added value… all of them. If I had an ordinary set of coffee cups and they were also my regular everyday cups, there would not be a problem at all when someone drinks from them. I just love my Japanese porcelain and want to keep it safe and intact. 🤷🏻

In my family we are all possessive (Blessing / curse?

That frothy and delicious latte with arepas. When I realized I was in my younger sister's seat, with her plate and cup 🫣. My sister stormed out of the house and preferred not to eat breakfast that day 😮‍💨.

Hello everyone, happy afternoon. I ask permission to join the conversation! ☕
Despite being a coffee fanatic , I had never had a special mug until my daughter gave me one that I consider to be very nice as well as generous. She gave it to me just before she left to live in Colombia, where she resides and now I don't drink coffee in a cup other than that one.

At home I have the advantage that only my husband and I drink coffee and I'm the one who serves it, so so far there has been no problem in this regard :)

Oh! and here I show you the one I regularly used to drink coffee with milk, another of my weaknesses in the morning! My generous mug nowadays also plays that role :)

Hello, friends coffeelovers!
I've shown my everyday mug around here before. It's so simple, I put other things around it to liven up the show! But I like it. It's perfect for me. No one uses my coffee mug. Everyone has their own. If ever I can't find it (which is not uncommon, as I drink coffee many times a day and dream of leaving it here and there) I say "Who stole my mug?". Immediately, my little family is mobilized in a search and rescue operation!
Here are some pictures of my mug. Simple, small and elegant!💅😌😁

On the contrary, it has seven years with the jar. He simply does not want to change it. He is attached to it! I've seen him break cups and glasses over the years, but the jar has never had an accident, and even withstood a move where I lost two very nice ornamental bottles.

Excellent Sunday conversation coffee lovers.

Today I come to participate in the new conversation of the week with lots of coffee and flavor.

I have my favorite mug in which I always drink coffee, personally I feel very good drinking coffee in this mug, which has no special history, my mother bought it and gave it to me as a gift. Until I read the comment I had not paid much attention if a visitor uses the cup, but with what our dear companion @millycf1976 said, word more, words less, "I do not know where the visitor's mouth could be" I started to think seriously on this point and indeed that some infection or disease can be transmitted. So next time I will think twice before lending my cup. Haha.

That was my answer to the weekly conversation question. I'll keep reading you in the comments.☕

Great start of the week!🍀

Yeah Herpes can be transmitted from sharing the same cup or utensils and the thought of that scares me more than anything.

One more reason not to share my cups, next time I say, don't use it, I don't know where your mouth was🤭😅

marlyncabrera 5 months ago

Now you know better! 😂

The truth is that if you wash your cup well, you won't get herpes, hehe. But I understand the fear; you look away for a second and boom! Herpes. It's best to make it clear that no one should touch your cup, among other things.

I particularly use several cups for my coffee, but my favorite is this one because it has a sentimental value, it is a gift from my love. I don't allow anyone else to use it so they don't break it, that's why every time I have a family visit I tell them, I'm sorry, you will NOT drink with this one.

I always set limits whether with family or friends, it's the only way to avoid bad moments because mugs are breakable objects and even more so when other people are not so careful.

marlyncabrera 5 months ago

I agree! When our cup is made of a material that breaks, and even more so if it breaks easily, we're even more reluctant to lend them. But I confess that I wouldn't lend my favorite mug even if it were made of iron 🙊

Ha ha ha ha @marlyncabrera you are exclusive. Of course that mug isn't loaned to anyone.😃

You are very right, when the cup is lent to someone there is always the possibility that it could break. Not all people have the same level of care as others.

I leave you a cup of coffee.☕

alborhada 5 months ago

Very true, that's why I prefer not to lend them out and avoid a bad time. 😅

Thank you for that cup of coffee, it looks exquisite.

We must take care of our relics, the best way is not to share it, it sounds selfish but it is better this way than getting upset about having used it.

alborhada 5 months ago

I think it's not being selfish.... But he who lends his favorite mug to cry stays.

Hello coffee loving friends, I hope you have a great weekend.

Of course I have a favorite coffee cup! It's a very special one because it was the mug my mom used to use, and it reminds me of her. It's a mug that is a few years old, and you can see the passing of time, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. When someone comes to visit my house I never serve them coffee in it, so it's not likely that anyone else will use it. In my house my husband and I like coffee and we each have our own cup. But supposing that a guest would one day want it, the answer would be No, a polite No, but No. I think he would understand.

I imagine that everyone in this group has his or her favorite and particular cup of coffee ♥️

A nice cup you show us. I see why you don't lend your cup to anyone, there are special cups that become part of us.

I leave you a cup of coffee for this day.☕

Maybe I'll pass my mug on to my daughter someday 🤗.

OMG! I haven't seen a cup like that in a long time. My grandma's next door neighbor had one of those--or really similar--, but it had olive green engravings. They were thick and a little heavy; I was seven perhaps,when they served me coffee in that cup, and I felt that I was no longer considered a little girl because they gave me a cup that wasn't plastic, hehe. Nice memories.

Your mom's cup is a beautiful cup, now yours. And your little girl might inherit it ❤️

jordy0827 5 months ago

Thank you. It is also a very heavy mug, it is not light at all, it has a strong material, I imagine that's why it has lasted so long. I hope to be able to give it to my daughter someday 🤗♥️☕

We already had coffee with milk on a daily basis since we were 6 or 7. How old were you when you started drinking coffee? I'm curious 🤭

jordy0827 5 months ago

Well, I don't remember the exact age, but Cuban children drink coffee with milk at breakfast, it's normal, so I remember that as a child I drank it quite a lot. And my grandmother when they brewed coffee in the afternoons would sometimes give me a sip because I asked her for it. But I owe you the exact age hehe, although I guess it would be about eight years old.

Similar stories in Venezuela. It was never an issue in my house or at my grandparents' 😁

Cubans love coffee as much as you do.
Well, what I didn't clarify very well is that when I was little it was usual to have coffee with milk for breakfast. Now with the economic crisis it is more complicated to get both, but it is still customary.

Hey, coffee friends! How's your Sunday going?

This mug was a gift from about 10 years ago; it holds 300 ml approx. It was a gift from a dear friend, and don't let anyone use it, ever. I took this picture at my father's house, during the interstice when I came back to this home; it was December and as you can see it is a Christmas mug.

For me, it has the same intimate character as underwear 😏 It's not something I'm going to lend you. It's not something I want you to take if you come to my house, or I'll feel like I should never invite you over ever again 😒 But it's likely that if you're at my house you'll be able to see it if I leave it in plain sight while it dries after washing it 🤣

I keep my cup save in its can (sort of a piggy bank actually) and take it out when I feel Christmas is almost here. You may have seen it on some of my posts.

I think this “my cup” thing is an ancient thing 👵 just like this is my cup for this and this is my cup for that... I remember my mom would drink coffee in any cup until one day I saw her drinking coffee in the same ceramic cup over and over again. I guess up to that point, she didn't have a favorite cup. There are also cups that she liked to keep on the cupboard for eternity and not because she didn't like them but because she didn't want someone to break them. In the end, the same thing happened to me.

I remember that back in the days my parents had a very fine porcelain set of coffee cups, but my father used to drink his coffee from one of the cups that had a broken handle. Maybe you are right that this “my cup” custom dates back to untold times… 😁 I can imagine the Stone Age people drinking wine only from their stone. 😂

A chipped stone 🤣

This "my cup" thing might be as old as the first beverage ever; just think about it: it was the substitute for our own hands.

jordy0827 5 months ago

How cool the comparison you made of the underwear with the coffee mug, but it's just like that, it's the same feeling.
Very nice your favorite mug, a nice souvenir ♥️

This mug is 14 years old, it was a gift from my son the Friday before Mother's Day in a celebration in his classroom and it was a very nice gift because he gave it to me with a lot of emotion. I used it a lot but nowadays I keep it in storage and take it out from time to time.

marlyncabrera 5 months ago

That happens, right? It's a beautiful gift and a tender gesture from your son. My son gave me clothes when he was little; they are all worn out but I still keep most of them 😄

That tradition of keeping cups stored and drinking from old cups, for fear of breaking them, my home was one of them, I remember telling him. My mom, when would we use it and she told me one day about this 😅🤭

marlyncabrera 5 months ago

I try to use every cup I have at home. I don't want them to become heirlooms that people use for the first time when I've already gone to the beyond, you know. But the tradition of keeping them safe so they don't break, I think that's in a gene and we pass it on to our daughters, haha.

You are right, that's why I don't have relic cups either, I use them whenever I please.

I've said several times that I like my own mugs and I don't share them. I have many, the truth I don't know how many mugs I have to drink coffee, but my favorite for ever and ever is this one:

IMG_20240610_133055~2.jpg

It has with me since 2012 when my mother set up in the house a sale of perfumery and miscellaneous. Among these things I saw this beautiful and strange mug of a little dog. I bought it and since then it accompanies me to the office, to the workshop and wherever I go. I feel that this character encourages me with his expression and accompanies me. At home and wherever I am, everyone knows that my mugs, especially this one, are untouchable.

Hello hello coffee lovers friends ☕, happy afternoon to all 🙏.

Talking about coffee cups, at home since I was little dad got us used to each one using only his cup or mug, I remember he was so strict about that that if he saw us using someone else's cup, that was a sure punishment, hehehe so, that custom I took it to my home, at home everyone has his cup and mug, and, there are separate cups and mugs for when visitors arrive.

It is impossible for them to use my 🍵 cup because I keep it in the fridge, yes sir, in the fridge, hahaha, and I don't think a visitor will open the fridge looking for a cup when there are cups outside, that's my strategy to keep mine! hehehehehe

For now I have 2 special mugs, a transparent one where I drink my morning coffee, and the one that some students gave me for Mother's Day, where I usually drink coffee with milk!
