I’m told Ari Shapiro is taking some time off right now, but I found his mug in the kitchen and took the opportunity, along with my charitable colleague Raquel, to give it the spotlight it deserves. Hope you don’t mind, Ari!

As Ari told me back in June, people often don’t know whose face it is. I think it’s so unmistakably Dolly! He picked it up in Knoxville, Tenn. And it’s quite possibly THE MOST PERFECT MUG IN THE WORLD. 

Please take a moment to join me in heartfelt appreciation.
