And then I hear the ice rattling around an empty cup.
Now let me be clear, I do not begrudge the Cotton Husband a drink of his apple juice when he comes out of the fields. It’s either hot and dusty out there or cold and wet and apple juice is a sure-fire cure for either condition.
But sometimes I’m a little busy when I hear those cubes a-rattlin’ in that cup and here is the perfect item for those times.
Red plastic cups that you can etch your name in. Except I plan to use them for sending messages to that comfy spot on the couch in front of the television.
For instance, if I’ve had a good day. Perhaps both babies took a nap at the same time, the UPS man (a country girl’s Santa Claus) brought goodies and maybe my Allure magazine arrived that day.
Or if both babies decided not to take a nap, my pot roast was tough, the washer overflowed, and the girls decided to take every sheet, blanket and towel in the house and make an intricate fort taking up the bottom half of the house.
Then this is what that cup might say.
It’s always a good idea for husbands and wives to communicate, don’t you think?







You are too funny ! I love it
Love this!
You hit the nail right on the head. How cute.
obviously the inventer of this new feature has a husband and kids!! Gotta get me some :}
I didn’t earn any brownie points the day I heard my dad rattle his tea glass at my mom. My mouth went off before I knew it! Those cups are a wonderful idea. Maybe I need to get my mom some:)
Hahahah love it. Since I do not have children yet, I enjoy leaving messages like that to my husband already. With love, of course.
I Love this…I have heard a cup rattle for a long time…And I am sure as sure as my sweetie comes in from the bean field I will hear it again..as long as your hear the rattle..you know everything is good…..
Too funny! I need some of these cups!
