White mug with blue insides and handle. blue text saying "Breakfast Crew" on one side.

Cafe Press will do it. The font here is Boucherie Cursive.

Meh. Can't find the font on my various word processing thingums.

Or just post the artwork so folks can make their own — tonnes easier. But let's see...

Good luck!

Only after the vaccum bag has been burned does she sit down — humming the same ditty to reinforce her memory — 2/?

Cassandra Hase looks the very picture of an aspiring author. Small blotches of green ink stain the fingers of her right hand. She has a ball cap labeled "Paradigm Shift Key" pulled low to keep the morning sun out of her eyes. No one thinks anything different of her.

Good morning, Mike!

Good morning, Sarazando.

Good morning, Stephanie!

Good Morning, Debbie!
