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?
