Tuesday from the brick hearth. There's just the slightest chill in the air these mornings before the sun comes up. It makes me think of the fall and winter coming, but that's often fast forgotten by midday when the sun is out and I can feel the heat. I'm looking forward to enjoying jeans on cooler days just like I'm enjoying this coffee for this jeans mug. It's really a unique mug, lots of ridges like pockets and "Carole" handwritten on the band. I wonder what happened to Carole, did she loose her jeans as well as her mug? Was the afternoon heat too much for her jeans? This mug came from somewhere else other than mass manufacturing, "SITTRE CERAMIC PROD 1976" is stamped on the base. Turns out Sittre is a vintage ceramic company from the 70's. who would have thought? This mug it's got a story to behind it and how it made its way to me, but all I can chuckle about is the thought of some woman named Carole losing her jeans.
