Hide your jealousy behind your cold, ceramic shell. Accept I'm her favorite, her go-to, her vessel of choice for her daily dose of warm, caffeinated life. I'm the mug you desire to be.
Trifextra 33 Word Challenge
We want you to give us a 33-word example of personification. Wait. What? You forget what that is? It's the practice of attaching human traits and characteristics with inanimate objects, phenomena and animals (http://literary-devices.com).

I have fave mugs, too. My grandkiddos get them for me from time to time. :)
Amazing how something so trivial can hold so much meaning. One of the things I got from my grandmother's house after her passing was an old Mother's Day mug from when I was a kid.
You captured that sentiment in 33 words!
I have a favorite glass too (: I love this piece!
I love this. Great choice for this prompt.
"vessel of choice"-wow!What a cute way to describe a mug!Loved the idea of other mugs turning green;-)Great use of the literary device!
My favourite mug is broken. Been like that for years. People say I should throw it out. But I won't.
This is fabulous! I have my favourite mug too and I can picture this happening on my shelves. Great job!
Great closing line, "I'm the mug you desire to be." Ha! Ha! Great description of the world behind our cupboard doors. :)
Hmm, now I understand all those chips I don't remember. Love the last line.
I liked your piece. I can see that jealousy... I try to spread out my use to avoid such things. I do have my favorite though...
LOL - Too funny... I have a favorite plate, bowl, mug, glass, fork, spoon, knife... I wonder if they lord it over the other ones that I only use as a last resort if someone has had the audacity to use my favorites? Very good!
Blessings,

Mine is an old Federal Express mug before they became FedEx. Every mug has a story...
My favorite dropped and cleanly broken a week before the presidential elections. A simple quote, "Liberalism is a mental disorder," is now cleanly severed in half. Broken or not, I still feel the same about the mug and the expression.
