Netflix is bringing back the power of sitcom with the new Original Series, One Day at a Time. The new series tells the story of the Alvarez family. Penelope, single mother and Army veteran, is supporting her two children as a full-time nurse with the help of her flamboyant Cuban mother, Lydia. But don’t let the hyperbolic Latina stereotypes, laugh track, and comedic quips fool you.

One Day at a Time explores heavy social and political topics concerning the trauma of PTSD, women in the military, surviving the daily struggles as a single mom, life as a Cuban-American living in a society that is fearful and cautious of immigrants, and women’s rights in the workplace.

Full of zest and Cuban culture, this show brings levity and laughter while tastefully providing a strong platform for the discussion of current issues as well as featuring a treasure trove of dinnerware patterns!

The Alvarez family decorates their home with bold, colorful items that match their vibrant personalities perfectly. Throughout the series, we notice a Tabletops Bocca mug that commands noticeability with the use of unique patterns and bright colors. The family utilizes the mug for warm beverages as well as a pen/pencil holder.
