Drink Cup
History of the Quaich – the Scottish Drinking Cup
The Quaich is a shallow drinking cup or bowl originating from Scotland. The word Quaich is attributed to the Gaelic word ‘cuach’, which is itself derived from the Latin word 'caucus' meaning drinking cup. The Quaich hails from medieval times when people were very distrustful of strangers and therefore carried their own cup for fear of either poisoning or watering down of their whisky!
They are wide and shallow in shape with two or three ‘lug’ handles and were traditionally made of wood or wood with silver banding. It is believed that the predecessor of the Quaich was the humble scallop shell which was the perfect size for holding a wee dram! From the seventeenth century the Quaich was generally made of silver or pewter and decorated with Celtic symbols. The centre of the bowl was normally decorated with a silver coin or a coat of arms. Some were made with a glass base so that the drinker could keep an eye on his companions.
The Quaich was traditionally used for drinking whisky or brandy but some larger examples have been found (one and a half pints) which were obviously used for drinking ale.
Nowadays the Quaich is often given to couples when they wed so they can share from the same cup which symbolizes their shared love and trust. The Quaich has also become a popular gift at christening ceremonies. A wooden Quaich was sometimes used as a baptismal font and has become synonymous with Christenings in Scotland as well as to celebrate births and drink to the health of the bairn.

Toddler refuses to drink from sippy cup. How do I help him transition from bottle?
My almost 16 month old still drinks milk from the bottle. We got him the soft spout sippy cups and let him drink water from it. While he has figured out how to drink from the soft spout cup... he doesnt drink much from it. He sips a bit and then throws the cup away or plays with it. Therefore we havent yet offered him milk in it. How do I get him to drink more than just a few sips at a time with the sippy cup ?
Get a bag, then tell your child that the bottle fairy is going to come. Tell him that is he wants a special reward from the bottle fairy, he has to put all the bottles into the bag so that the fairy could deliver them to the bottle factory. Get him to join in and collect all the bottles in your house. Then, at night remove all the bottles and place a surprise in the bag, or a special sippy cup with his favourite cartoon character on it.
