If you lived in the east around the eighteen hundreds you would have just started to see the European influence beginning to creep into the United States. One of the things you would have found was European coffee and the delight of getting a hot cup each morning. I don’t think I would have enjoyed it as much as I do with my Hand warmer Mug but I do think it still would have been a great treat. Of course, with the handwarmer mug it is the greatest treat known to all of mankind and the one thing that I must have each and every morning.
