A tearful farewell - will mornings ever be the same again?

A broken coffee mug

This is a1$ coffee mug from IKEA. I've used it for now than a year and today I bid a tearful farewell to it. I knocked it off the kitchen ledge accidentally and it broke. All I could do was sweep the pieces off and dump it in the bin. This particular cheap ikea mug model is my favourite. It is my 4th mug in ten years. I'll probably go and buy another one when I'm at ikea.

You are very frugal with your mug purchases.

@pitstop And you got a good deal on it too. I hope you are able to get one that looks like this one.

It's always a bit sad to see a favourite mug get broken.

Thankfully it's a cheap replacement and I'm using something similar in the interim!
