I broke my coffee cup, what now?

Coffee?
Who wants coffee.........

I used to invite my cute hairdresser out for coffee and casual sex, she always said "yes, but lets skip the coffee". Her married sister was just as cute and just as adventurous but I draw the line at married women, especially those with husbands three times my size.......

Take a pottery class and you can reproduce it.

Girls were so slutty back in the 30's.

I can relate to what you felt when it broke.
When I was 7, my mother took me to a potter workshop. The old man made me a large cup, which has been MY cup since then... At that time it was hot chocolate, but I shifted to coffee a few years ago now ^_^

... and I broke the handle last year...

Fortunately, it was empty, and I grabbed the cup with my other hand... cup in the left hand, handle in the right... I think I might have cried my heart out like a little girl if I hadn't caught it, since it's one a the few memories I have left from my mother.

I've been using it without the handle since....

It's crazy, and great in the same time, the memories one can associate with a simple item...

Dude If i had a coffee cup for 30 years and broke it, Id be pretty upset too.
Though, All good things do come to an end. Best thing is to just accept it.
Take it to your potter neighbour.

Call OCP - they'll make you a RoboCUP *ducks out of the way of the rotten tomatoes*.

Do your best to patch it up/repair it as best you can *thumbs-up*.
My fav jeans are so stitched-up from repair that they look like the Frankenstein monster!

I'd also like to see pics of the cup before the break, broken, and then repaired/patched-up.
