Don’t worry – it might be the last day of February, but I didn’t miss the mug of the month! My Disney trip this past week felt very Star Wars oriented, even though it was about the Princess Half Marathon. I was hanging out with a friend who is very into Star Wars, so we did the Star Wars dessert party in Hollywood Studios. I also decided to run as Princess Leia for the half marathon.
So it seemed only fitting that I should be drinking out of the only Star Wars mug I own. I got this one from the Smuggler’s Bounty subscription box, which was sponsored by Funko and contained Star Wars items based around a certain theme every month. This mug was from the “Resistance” themed box.
It’s C-3P0, but not your typical look at the droid. Since it was by Funko it was done in the same style of the designs of the POP Vinyls. He has the big black eyes and the shape is pretty unique.
What’s in my mug: Even though it’s winter, I had the break out the Enchanted Tiki Coconut coffee from Expedition Roasters. It really got me into the mood for heading down to Florida (where it was 85 degrees!)
What I’m currently reading: I’m in the middle of the book Circe, by Madeline Miller, which was published last year and got some positive attention – I believe it was voted the best Fantasy book by users on GoodReads. It’s kind of an origin story/redemption story of the goddess Circe. I didn’t know much about her mythology going into it (basically just from the Odyssey), but she’s definitely painted as a villain there. So far this sheds a much different light on her. It’s an easy read and I’m definitely enjoying it!
What’s in your mug? And what are you currently reading?
SUCH a cute mug!!
I have been using Kroger French Vanilla coffee with either Irish Coffee or Oreo creamer. My coffee cup changes daily but the most interesting one is a Color-Your-Own coffee cup I did years ago.
That mug is very cute, although I didn’t recognize C-3P0 immeditately. I just started drinking coffee recently and have been sticking to unflavored coffee with creamer. I think it is time I get a little more adventurous with it.
Super cute mug! I love that you feature products like this on your blog!
Oh my goodness, what a cute C-3PO mug!! I love the Funko-inspired design! I’m currently reading Crazy Rich Asians and loving it! <3
