An Odd Affinity for Starbucks Mugs

Courtney and I love collecting these freaking Starbucks city mugs. Our plan is to collect one for every city we visit together. Yes, together. If we don't visit the city together, it doesn't count.

As of now, our collection is relatively small, but we're excited about growing! Cleveland, Chicago, Niagara Falls, and Denver are all we have. We've also been to the Twin Cities, Buffalo, New Jersey and New York City, but things didn't work out quite yet for those.

The Twin Cities were sold out, Buffalo doesn't even have one (ouch, considering the nearby tourist attraction does), and we instead were treated to a different brand of mugs for our New Jersey visit. NYC simply hasn't made the cut, but I suspect it will when we visit again for Easter. To be honest, we do have a Buffalo mug, but I had to get it off Zazzle.com, a custom made one. No cityscape or anything... Just the word "Buffalo." It could be a celebration of the animal, for all people know. But again, I digress (two days in a row!).
