    What a nice experience. My mug was packed very well and shipped very fast. It was described as used but looked brand new. All for a great price! The communication was outstanding and I enjoyed the chats. We'll find out if the magic of the mug will help with my calling, as promised, come season. I think it makes the coffee taste better at least. Thank you for a great transaction.

  • Haven't started yet, but

    I haven't been reading much lately, but I am sure reading some of the classics will change that.
