Those Wild and Wacky Brits!

Drinking out of this should spice up my mornings!

Breakfast this morning was dull: Same old oatmeal, same old blueberries. Even my coffee seemed been-there-done-that, despite drinking it from my favorite Polish hand-made, ceramic mug. I wondered, was songstress Peggy Lee right -- is that all there is? Is there nothing more?

Then I turned the page of the newspaper and there it was: A story all about the approaching wedding of Prince Harry and his bride-to-be Meghan Markle, an American actress and divorcee, and of mixed race no less. How absolutely titillating can you get? But the best part is that I can buy a mug with their pictures on it! There are dozens from which to choose, showing the couple in a variety of poses and moods.

It was hard, but I finally opted for the one shown above. It's so classy, just like the whole Royal Family, except of course for Harry's dad, Charles, the Prince of Wales and heir apparent to the British throne who gained notoriety for cheating on his wife Diana (who also had a boyfriend) and telling his then-mistress Camilla, in a recorded phone message, that he wished he could be her tampon. But besides all that.
