The Thirteenth Cup

Who said #13 is unlucky?  Look at this magical DD Cup!  So this morning was not fun driving the 25 north up to Alberta - I mean S. Deerfield MA.  You just kinda have to close your eyes and turn around these snow mounds - it is very circa winter 1996 out there - the last time we saw snow mountains like this.  So anyways, I pull into my friendly DD a little bit slower than usual.  Though I do love this DD, they really do need to plow out their drive thru a bit better!  So while channeling my inner Alanis singing "You Oughtta Know"  (remember its circa 1996) I lean out and say "Can I have a large Cinnamon with Cream and Sugar Please".  The voice comes back and says, "You sure can!"  Slipping my way up to the window I hand my $5.13 over and back comes this magical DD Cup!  This one must have been waiting for me before my order - no way could it have appeared this way in the time from speaker to window.  I laugh as the drive thru girl hands it over and say, "Brilliant - I love this one!"  I get wished a wonderful day and drive off.  Note - the x's and o's (and a few hearts), make one bit heart - you just can't see it in this picture.  Thank you DD Cup - you are one of my new favorites!
OH - And My Piccachu can be seen to the top left of the picture.  She has been with me a long time and brings me good luck when gambling :) 

The Twelfth Cup!

So it's the Winter of Hell here in New England.  Yes I know all you people will say "It's New England - what do you expect!"  I don't care - this sucks!  So driving into work - through the snowy wet roads, listening to Kelly sing me sad songs, and thinking grrrrrr WTF is going on with my life - I drive up to my DD drive thru and ask "May I have a Large Cinnamon with Cream and Sugar please?"  The lady giggles and says "Oh You sure can!"  I pull up and wait just a little bit this morning for my coffee.  I'm thinking, "wow I think a magical DD Coffee Cup would be just what my winter blues need".  I handed my $20.13 over and out comes not only a heart filled cup, but one that has a heart on the LID too!   I laugh when I get this one and just say "Thanks ladies - you have made my day just a little brighter now with this magical cup!".  The drive thru girl wishes me a wonderful day and I drive on.  Getting to the office I go to start drinking my hot cinnamon coffee and stare straight into my heart lid.  Oh DD Cups - where would I be this winter with out you?

The Eleventh Cup

The drive into work is getting treacherous with the 10 foot mountains of snow.  My cups have been blank for a few days now - it's been very sad.  This morning I drove up to the sign and thought - "OMG what cute Heart Donuts DD has this year!"  The voice came over the speaker "How can I help you?"  "Can I have a large Cinnamon with cream and sugar please".   "You sure can - giggle giggle giggle"  Wow - I think there was an extra giggle, maybe my DD cup will have something on it today.  I handed over my $2.13 and upon receipt I got a cute heart covered DD cup!  A perfect match to their new Heart Donuts!  This cup looks like it was created in between the order and window today!  Perhaps my magic DD Cup creator was having a busy morning?  At any rate the hearts made me smile - it's been an awful week and this helped make it just a bit better.  Thank you DD Cup - I do love you too!

The Tenth Cup

And so we are no live with my DD Chronicles.  Today took me a bit longer as we were getting hit with our 10000 snow storm of this winter.  After a difficult drive in, and an awful past weekend, I pulled up to the DD menu sign (thinking wow they still are advertising Gingerbread Lattes?) and I heard "Good Morning, how can I help you?"  I said "Can I have a Large Cinnamon with Cream and Sugar Please".  The reply "You Sure Can!"  I handed over my $20.13 today and with my change was this masterpiece.  My hearts seemed bigger and more vibrant - and I was told to "Drive Safe - Wanna C U Again".  This was a special Cup!  Thank you DD Cup - and yes I did drive safe today and I hope to c u soon! 

The Ninth Cup

Good Morning to you as well DD Cup! 

The Eighth Cup

We are almost up to date with the DD Cup Chronicles!  Two weeks ago today was the mother of all storms - and we have had a lot.  My DD Cup however, did seem to be looking forward to the snow - in fact it was cheering for it!  Well we got 2 feet that next day so perhaps my cups could be part weather man too.  Oh and I was happy to see my snowman return complete with buttons!

The Seventh Cup

I remember this cup well!  The giggle that came after my or of "A Large Cinnamon with Cream and Sugar" was louder than usual.  I drove up and handed the girl the $2.13.  She handed me this cup and said "You so make her day".  I said, "No - let her know that these cups make MY day".  I got kissed this morning - it was sweet.
