"I HAVE MEASURED OUT MY LIFE WITH COFFEE SPOONS" - T. S. ELIOT. This beautiful mug makes a great gift for lovers of coffee and literature alike. The pattern is comprised entirely of spoons and the line is from one of T.S. Eliot's most beloved works: "For I have known them all already, known them all: Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons, I have measured out my life with coffee spoons; I know the voices dying with a dying fall Beneath the music from a farther room. So how should I presume?" - T. S. Eliot, The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.

A beautiful mug of excellent quality with a proper quote!
I bought this to replace an old Barnes & Noble (B&N) mug I'd been using for years of the same quote. However, I went to re-read T.S. Eliot's poem, and I realized my B&N version was a misquote! It said "in coffee spoons" vs. the correct "with coffee spoons." Embarrassment aside, I scoured the internet for a correct quote and found this little gem. The mug is beautiful, has the perfect capacity, has a wide handle to keep your fingers from touching a hot mug, and is of wonderful quality. Additionally, my order not only arrived early, but also with unexpected goodies! With my mug, I received a 4 gorgeous bookmarks and a calendar page of the month I purchased my mug (February). Each item had its own style and quote or text as follows:Bookmark #1: "Pleasure in the pathless woods" - Lord ByronBookmark #2: "Unfathomable deeps, blue as the overhanging heaven" - Percy ShelleyBookmark #3: "Lone Splendor hung aloft the night" - John KeatsBookmark #4: Obvious State logo, white text on black & grey backgroundCalendar Page: "Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same." - Emily Bronte

The quote speaks to my soul
I love this mug. I relate to the quote so much! Also it just fits perfect in my hand and I like the size if it too! It's big enough to hold the perfect amount of coffee (for me) and it's deceptly slimming, holds a lot and isn't huge and bulky. It was also delivered really fast. It was free shipping but not prime and I expected it to take a lot longer then it did to arrive. It came way before the expected delivery date and took closer to the amount of time it would take to get something ordered with prime.

Already getting compliments for these well-made gorgeous mugs
Packed very securely and arrived earlier than expected, with a bonus insert and bookmark.They hold up well in the microwave and the dishwasher, are sturdy, and they're definite conversation starters! Would absolutely recommend the products and the company from this experience.
