My Grandma's Mug

This is one in a set of mugs that are very dear to me. They used to be my grandma's. She bought them decades ago when the earthy yellows, browns, and greens were in style.

They are Centura by Corning mugs.

Every time I use this mug I remember sitting in her kitchen in Washington, drinking coffee (or "Kwoffee" as she used to say in her Italian, New Jersey accent).

We would gaze out at Mount Hood across the river, and I would listen to her tell stories.
