Recently I was in my favorite coffee house Richton Perk in Richton Park, IL
( See the posting ‘Douglas Discovers Coffee, updated 2/13/2009 for its story). All the regulars have their own custom hand lettered mug with their name on the side and the date of their becoming a regular on the bottom, with their number since the first mug was made. To everyone’s surprise and delight a long lost customer, number 12 of the regulars came in with his beautiful cousin, on the exact anniversary, March 12th on the bottom of her mug.
