Be the hero of your own life? Yeah, well, the person who coined that phrase never stared down a Nor’easter blizzard, am I right? Be that as it may, we like to think our Super Hero Mug Set will help show Old Man Winter who’s boss!  Too cold to be creative? No worries, we’ve compiled Five Fab Ways to Kick the Cold with a Cup:

5.  It’s freezing and you’re PHurious. Grab the mug that reads : KAPOW and shout, “I’m too cute to be this cold!” and hurl it into the nearest fireplace. (Note: while PHAG does not promote the recreational destruction of our PHine merch, we figure this is a friendlier alternative to, say, road rage or arguing with your significant other about the cost of home heating.)

4.  Fill one of these cheery cups with hot choc, because SCREW WINTER YOU GUYS. If you’re really feeling rebellious, throw in some marshmallows because screw that stupid diet you started three weeks ago, too.  This is about survival!

3.  Who needs a brandy snifter when you can fill a cup with cheer? Drink up until you don’t care what time of year it is. Spring (that fickle hag) will be toying with our emotions long after we spring forward in March.

2.  Go the comfort food route and ladle in some of mom’s chicken soup. Get nostalgic for a time when PHrigid days were blissfully free of work, commuter traffic, and worry.

1.  And our number one choice – because it’s healthier than all of the above and a lot happier, make your mug into a makeshift vase. Let a few flowers point their cheery faces from it’s edges. Hope springs eternal in their petals. Replace them every week until warm temps return. When they do, trade your friendly cup for an icy cool cocktail.
