/laughs eerily…

No, I just typed into google “cups with lids and straws” and scanned the first page. It took maybe 30 seconds of effort on my part, a bit more to type in the comment….

C’mon, getting muffin posts is worth trying to make the crazy TNS lady happy…

Ooooh! Carafe picking! I’ve always wanted to do that! But I don’t see the Best possible option, which would be the “calimocho” “porron” (added benefit of this name is that is sounds kinda like porn) or “Spanish carafe.” You can see one here: http://www.tienda.com/table/products/gl-01.html?rlid=search&HBDCMP=IL-TSugSearch

Get the CB2. The less distracting “design” elements to deal with at 4 am, the better, I always say.

Ah, the sinus issues make me think of oysters. And mignonette. Or, if it’s a particularly bad sinus infection, then maybe some red cocktail sauce.

Sorry, this is a food blog, isn’t it?

I want one of the Target ones to keep KY in on my bedside table. It’ll add some class, I think. Class that says “if I can’t have foreplay, I can certainly have elegance.”

I kind of like that three potato four model. I’m into pretty pictures.

Sorry the cold has taken over so badly. I had a cold that was much as you described last winter (i.e. the Worst.Cold.Ever.) It took several days to wrest it from my head, so I feel your pain.

I have (a) roaming felines with a yen for water from my glass and (b) a need to take asthma meds at night when tucked in bed/occasional coughing fits at night which require a drink STAT, I have had this issue.

My solution is really an adult sippie cup. It’s an insulated coffee mug with a screw on top and a flip open drinking spout (okay, hole) that I got from Wal-Mart for $8.50. Mine’s a soothing metallic blue.

It is certified cat proof and it does keep your water nice and cool at night.

Something like this: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=9224774 but curvier in shape and more attractive in colour.

I like the Posh Chicago one, m’self. Actually, I like the internal organ one on the left the absolute best, but bow to the usefulness of the lid/cup arrangement.

Both of my roommates (and pretty much everyone on the subway) are currently in thrall to the crud that’s washed over New York, so I’m resigned to getting it eventually. I’m not sure what offering I could make to my sinuses to make it worth their while to resist.

I’ve been looking at the one from CB2 and this post just about had me hitting the “checkout” button (since it’s been sitting in my cart for a few weeks along with some tiny appetizer plates and little square bowls that I probably don’t need) but after reading anna’s review above…I’m not so sure…
