That was a Central Perk mug for Tara. She was a fan of Friends and a barista. I found another one and saw it lives in her cupboard along with lots of other coffee mugs.
The cracked one still had integrity as a planter and I got a little coffee plant for it and named it Phoebe. It was part of my campaign to get more plants at my office desk at TC. It died during the pandemic and I tossed dead Phoebe and broken mug away when I was cleaning out my workspace. Only one plant survives - Siu Lung (little dragon), a dragon tree plant, that is in my home office now.
it saddens me to think about it now. Phoebe is a ghost of Xmas plant...
