Friday Find: Creature Cups

Today's find is all sorts of awesome. I mean who wouldn't want an octopus hanging out in the bottom of their cup of tea? Check out the charming mugs from Etsy shop Creature Cups (link):

Eee! They are sort of like fun sea themed version of these woodland tea cups I blogged about in January 2011 (link) - which is great since they will be spending time swimming in delicious liquids! Now if only shipping wasn't $23...

  5. These are really really awesome. Reminds me of something my grandmother used to make me: 'yoghurt with surprise". She would give us a yoghurt dessert and hide a little candy inside haha :) Btw, love the whole presence of science on your blog. I can be kind of geeky too (I study at the university of technology), so cool :)

    1. Thanks Marielle! Your yogurt surprise sounds a lot like the money cakes my mom used to make when we were little. She'd clean coins and wrap them in wax paper and them bake them into an angel food cake! I remember always wanting seconds in hopes of getting a quarter in there!
