Today is the day for Erica and Christy's Simply Hot Blogfest!
Here's my mug:
A few months after I started working at the library (almost 7 years ago) my boss called me into her office. A patron had written to the library to say how much he appreciated the time I spent to help him with his question. There was a gift bag on her desk and in it was this mug. She thanked me for being a great representative of the library, and how happy she was that she hired me. I was on cloud nine! So needless to say, this is my favorite mug. (Plus it holds WAY more ice cream than regular sized mugs)
Be sure to check out Erica and Christy's blog to look at all the other spiffy mugs my fellow bloggers are gushing over!

Ice cream in a mug -- all the time (and soup and chili)!

Ice cream in a mug- I love it- I also adore the saying on it!
Aw, great story:) I love when library peeps go out of their way (or anyone, really).
Great quote & I love that colour! And you put ice cream in it-- what a fabulous idea.
That was so sweet of them. Yep I have my soups and ice cream in my mugs too.
What a nice gift and especially the sentiment.

Cool mug, and I love the story behind it. What a lift it must give you to look at it and remember being so beautifully appreciated.
MMmm This fest makes me want all these nommy things. Ice cream and cider and hot cocoa! I love your mug! It's so pretty!
See what happens when you're nice to people?
I love the quote on your mug! I agree on hundred percent and in these times of library closings, I should be on more mugs!!! have a nice day!!!
I love that saying about libraries! Lovely mug too.
Love it!! I eat ice cream out of a mug too!!!! Mine is a bog round cappuccino mug!
It sounds like a trophy as much as a mug! How fun that you can remember that every time you want...ice cream?
did some one say "ice cream"?

Wow now you must be one proud mug owner. That is so fabulous! Very special indeed! :O)
Nice mug :)
I love that you use your mug for ice cream! That looks like it would be a great coffee mug as well. :-) Filled to the brim with Madagascar Vanilla Caramel coffee (just had that this morning!).
Awww, what a great story - it's so wonderful to feel validated at work, especially in the beginning!! And the saying is just perfect for you. Thanks so much for joining, even if your post is a little on the *cold* side!!
So awesome to know that you're appreciated! And that's a perfect container for ice cream ~ :)
Of all the mug stories, you've had the best one!
So cute and what a great story!
I can't think of anything more wonderful than a mug full of ice cream. Thanks for sharing the story behind it.
That quote is so true though. Wonderful story!
:)
That is so awesome! What a great gift!
Working at a library seems like it would be the best job in the world (I'm guessing in reality it's probably more of a mixed bag!).
What a great story! And an adorable mug. I'm a huge fan of libraries!
