Though certain of my friends are rabid on the issue, I'm not a crank about Starbucks. I'll go there if I want coffee and there's no other reasonable choice. Still, I prefer my local coffee houses and have always quietly cheered the Delocator's effort. 

At Christmas last year we received a Starbucks gift box from our lovely friend Sharon. In it, among the coffee samples, biscotti, etc., were two mugs, one red and one white. They keep my coffee warm (I'm a sipper), have handles that fit my fingers nicely, and are a wonderful shape, size and color. I love them and use them regularly and without shame, as you can see.
