Don’t you hate it when you’re at a party and you set you drink down to stop Suzy from squirting Johnny with the hose and you go back to get it and its lost in a sea of 20 other blue plastic cups?
In our neck of the woods, everyone labels their cups with a permanent marker! They set out permanent markers (out of reach of young children, of course), for everyone to label/decorate their glasses for easy recognition.
It helps in early clean up, too. You can throw out glasses of people who left before the bitter end. Anyway, using a markers to label drinking glasses at gatherings really works for me!
