Observations, pictures, and sketches highlight the transition of moving to the nations's Capitol after 30 years of living in the Midwest. A clash in cultures? Maybe not!

Bodum or Zwilling Sorrento Plus Double Glass Wall Coffee Mug
We really like the Crate and Barrel Bodum double glass wall coffee/tea cups. But they do break once in a while and have been replaced a couple of times. Usually we go back to Crate and Barrel. But this time, because it was raining, we were on a morning walk in the mall and passed by Sur la Table. So we decided to go in and check out what they might have. We found a two cup set made by Zwilling Sorrento Plus. They essentially looked the same and would replenish our supply. They are actually a little bit different when we tried them out for tea after dinner for the first time. The Zwilling cups have a smaller mouth and are a little taller, but I think the capacity is about the same. The handles are also more “square” vs “rounded” and are not as easy to hold as the Bodum cups. I don’t think it makes any difference except you are always used to what you are used to. When we moved to our new northern Virginia condo nine months ago we never throught we would get used to it. It’s amazing how one adjusts - even to the smallest of things.
