That’s a good-looking mug, Martha J. And the cup’s pretty, too.

    Does anyone else hear the teeny crunch of teeny teefies on lettuce?

  11. wuyizidi says:

    No no no, today’s new year’s eve (Year of Bun of course), so Floofini should be eating uncut noodle Lady and the Tramp style.

  12. JBC says:

    What happens when bun comes out of the mug and sees (or doesn’t see) a shadow?

  15. Melissa says:

    How can a creature exsist that always looks so disgusted be so freaking cute at the same time??

  16. Theresa says:

    PS Where do I get one of those mugs? My SIL is a potter, maybe she can whip one up for me.

  17. janet2buns says:

    The kBd (kilobuns of disapproval) he will use to propel himself out of the mug will probably flatten the city for blocks around. I suggest immediate evacuation.

  18. Kar says:

    “If the act’s a HIT?” Oh Mike…

  19. April's NaNa says:
