Glee! A blend of two of my favorite obsessions, coffee and steampunk! archers_elegant posted about her handcrafted steampunk coffee-cup sleeves over in steamy_stitches. Go see! They are lovely!

Somehow it seemed appropriate to post this here! LOL

Morning coffee add on

So if you go to certain webpages every day, this will load the page for you in tabs automatically. And there's a cute coffee cup icon at the top of your browser. ;) I just downloaded it and it's pretty cool!

While catching up on my technology newsletters, I found a link to this nifty gadget that I thought CocoaJava readers might be interested to learn about. Unfortunately it was among the many technology items in short supply this holiday season due to its popularity, but hopefully it will become available again soon.



Self-Stirring Mug sold by Hammacher Schlemmer
http://www.hammacher.com/publish/73062.asp

According to the website, this 9 oz. mug has a tiny, battery-operated propeller at the bottom (running on 2 AAA batteries) that stirs your drinks at 3,000 rpms using a button on the handle. This propeller eliminates the need for stirrers or spoons, and can restir you hot cocoa to prevent that annoying settling out problem. It comes with a lid that helps retain heat, and which can be used under the mug as a coaster.
