At the same time, I was concerned about drinking coffee around my kids &#8211; spilling on them, or them tipping over my cup. So I basically went looking for a sippy cup for grown-ups. I landed on the <a href=\"https:\/\/geni.us\/contigo-mug\">Contigo mug<\/a>. And it worked wonderfully.<\/p>\n<p>The autoseal lid means a button has to be pressed while drinking, which greatly inhibits the opportunity for Hot Coffee On Child. What I hadn&#8217;t expected was how much it increased my enjoyment of my coffee. I&#8217;ve always loved that first scalding hot sip of coffee, and now I get that most of the way down my drink. It also means it&#8217;s still drinkable two hours later when I get to finish it. (Again, kids.)<\/p>\n<p>A couple of recommendations<\/p>\n<p>* Buy the silver one. I&#8217;d love a different colour, but only the silver one is dishwasher safe (the colour comes off, apparently) and life is too short to handwash.<\/p>\n<p>* Get the one with the &#8220;Easy-Clean Lid&#8221;, an upgrade from the previously recommended version. It pops open the mechanics of the lid to enable a better clean. My cup usually sits in a hot car in the sun all day, with latte dregs in the bottom, but I&#8217;ve never had a problem with odor retention after the dishwasher adventure.<\/p>\n<p>* Once you&#8217;re in the Contigo church, buy a couple of extra to match your dishwasher schedule. I have three, because we run the dishwasher every two or three days. Life. Short. Handwash.<\/p>\n<div class='ctx-module-container ctx_default_placement ctx-clearfix'><\/div><span class=\"ctx-article-root\"><!-- --><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drinks stay hot up to 5 hours and cold up to 12 hours<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":76,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false},"categories":[18],"tags":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29423"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/76"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29423"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29423\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":38918,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29423\/revisions\/38918"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29423"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29423"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkdev.kk.org\/cooltools\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29423"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
