20 Cute Coffee Mugs for Chilly Fall Mornings

Sep 29, 2014

Let’s be real here. Not many of us can make it through the day — umm, the MORNING — without our cup of coffee. Especially when it’s chilly outside. And you’re going to need at least one cute coffee mug to carry that liquid gold to your lips. Whether you’re truly addicted to the comforting pick-me-up or you’re more of a hot cocoa, spiced cider or herbal tea drinker, here are 20 options that are just begging to be added to your mug collection.

1. Wakey Wakey Travel Mug ($12): Carry your coffee to work in these bright and cheery travel mugs.

2. All Eyes Mug ($22): This lash-y eye mug has shimmering copper accents, so it’ll perk you right up on an early morning or a lazy afternoon.

3. Live Colorfully Mug ($20): Here at Brit HQ, we live by this motto. Bring on the color, baby!

4. Happy Mug ($9): Okay, so this mug may not express how you really feel in the mornings, but it does describe how you feel when you see a hot cup of coffee.

5. Speckled Enamel Mug ($8): This part-modern, part-vintage inspired mug is so much fun. It will look just as good in your hip pad as it will around the campfire.

6. Eat Cake For Breakfast ($20): Because you should always eat cake for breakfast… with your latte, of course.

7. Gloriosa Mug ($12): If you’re a coffee mug collector, add this beauty to your collection. Heck, you should probably buy a whole set… and the same one in turquoise.

8. Custom Handpainted Mugs ($21): This is quite possibly the best IKEA hack ever. Funky Tiles on Etsy creates these cuties using IKEA’s 365+ white mug as their blank canvas, so if you’re feeling creative, whip out those paint markers and get drawing!

13. You Can and You Will Mug ($24): There’s nothing like a little motivation in the morning. Especially when it’s cold out. And snowing.

14. Lip Tease Mug ($25): If we had gold lipstick, we would kiss everything.

15. Inspirational Beyoncé Mug ($18): Unlike Beyoncé, we may not wake up like this. But similar to Queen Bey, we have 24 hours in a day. And sometimes, you just need a friendly reminder about that fact.

16. Harvard Law Mug ($16): Channel your inner Elle Woods with this Legally Blonde-inspired coffee mug.

17. Memo Notebook Mug ($15): This cutie is just begging to be written on. We’d use it for a daily to-do list courtesy of some dry erase markers!

18. Polka Dot Mug ($15): A mug covered in colorful polka dots? Don’t mind if we do…

How To Stream 'A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving' For Free This Holiday Season

Despite the fact my family (and the internet at large) loves classics like It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown and A Charlie Brown Christmas, my favorite Charlie Brown holiday special has always been A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. The 30-minute episode just highlights so much that I love about this time of year: family, CHOSEN family, and that feeling when we finally switch from spooky season to cozy season. Not to mention the fact the montage of Snoopy cooking Thanksgiving dinner is my favorite scene in any cartoon, like, ever. Here's everything you need to know about streaming A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving for 2024.

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (and A Charlie Brown Christmas) is available to stream for the 2024 holiday season!
The episode features Charlie Brown and friends sitting down for a very memorable Thanksgiving dinner.
A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving premiered in 1973 on CBS, and continues to be a fan favorite.

How To Stream 'A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving'

This year, the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving special is available to watch on Apple TV+, along with It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown and A Charlie Brown Christmas. So if you're wondering, 'Is Charlie Brown Thanksgiving on Disney Plus?' unfortunately, no, it's not.

But the $9.99 price tag for an Apple TV+ subscription gives you access to so many other amazing titles (plus there's even a 7-day free trial meaning you can watch this special for free!). Check out Everything Coming To Apple TV+ In 2024 for a look into the streamer's newest projects!

What happened in Charlie Brown Thanksgiving?

Charlie Brown and Sally are preparing to spend Thanksgiving at their grandma's house. But when Charlie gets a call from Peppermint Patty, he learns that she's invited herself, Marcie, and Franklin over for dinner! Stuck between a rock and a hard place, Charlie decides to provide a low-key meal for his friends — which brings us to my favorite cooking montage of Snoopy making popcorn, jelly beans, and toast, and setting up a ping pong table like a dinner table.

Peppermint Patty is not happy with the dinner options, and is honestly pretty rude to Charlie, but Marcie reminds her the true spirit of the Thanksgiving season is about being together. It makes me a little weepy just writing this TBH!

I won't spoil the ending of the special just in case you somehow haven't seen it (?!?!) but I will say one of the final scenes features a station wagon with plenty of seating in the back, and as someone who grew up with mini vans and sedans, I still dream about riding in a car like this.

When did Charlie Brown Thanksgiving air?

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving first aired on CBS in 1973, then switched to airing on ABC in 2001. However in 2024, the special (as well as the other two) are available to stream on Apple TV+ after Apple acquired the rights in 2018.
