Jamie Oliver Cosy Tea Mugs

Posted on by

These are the tea mugs I was rattling on about in my previous entry, and as some of you asked to see what they looked like, here they are. (Well, here’s one of them.)

It’s not just me, either. The previous tenants (our friends S and L) also agreed that for some reason, these tea mugs have special powers – they keep the water warmer for longer, they fit perfectly in your palm, and something about the smoothness of the porcelain against your lips…I know, it’s gay. But so true! They don’t look like anything special, but they are. And, for £9 a mug at House of Fraser, they better be! (And no, I’m not being paid to endorse these buggers.)

    You are much more cultured than we are in Texas. Our mugs usually have confederate flags on them. (Not MY mugs, but you know.)

    So Meg, did your flat come furnished, even with tea mugs? Love it. I remember being able to get fully furnished flats. I love that idea.

      Yup. It all came furnished. It's crazy! But so much easier for us.

    No,no,no,no, YES! I want one. In fact, I have one of the Jamie mugs – it says "Hot Babe." And indeed, it makes a proper cup of tea, because it's made of porcelain. That is the best material to drink tea from, it keeps it well hot for long time! It feels so good in your hand doesn't it?

      You are a hot babe. That's probably why you have one that says it.
