Tea in My Newest Mug

My friend Elizabeth has a linky party called T Stands for Tuesday where she and others share drink related posts and creations. Everyone has the coolest recipes, fun creations (you can share past creations as well), pictures of fun coffee shops, etc.  I have played once and have wanting to join in again so here I am.  

Here is a new handmade pottery mug I bought at a local shop - I love it.  It has some Breakfast in Paris tea steeping in it waiting to for the pumpkin squares to cool....

HERE is a link to the pumpkin square recipe - I leave out the coconut milk and add in a bit more spices and one more egg. 

Sharing a past journaling page with a drink as well from 2019 - sitting on my daughter's porch looking over the water thinking about Heaven and how beautiful it will be. 

So glad I made it to T stands for Tuesday again!  Thanks for visiting!

    Love your new mug :) It's good to hear we can alter recipes and that they turn out fine. I'm always skittish about it. Happy T Tuesday!

    I adore your new mug, including the shape and color, but fear I'll be singing that song all day long, now. I want some of that Breakfast in Paris tea, too.

    Your journal page is gorgeous. Heaven and a cup of sunshine go so well together. It's beautiful and I enjoyed reading it when I enlarged it.

    Thanks for joining us and sharing your recipe, your amazing journal page, and your beautiful new mug and tea with us for T this Tuesday, dear Nancy.

    I'm glad you are back Nancy for T Nancy. I like your mug. I love homemade mugs. Of course my would say sweet home New Hampshire, which isn't really a saying. Up here we say "In the 603", our area code. Of course this one is perfect for you. And your pumpkin squares look yummy too. I think the tea and a square on the back porch would be fantastic. Hope you're having a wonderful T day.

    Heaven is a wonderful thing to reflect on. It makes me long to be there instead of on this earth. Your cup of tea and Pumpkin square sound like the perfect accompaniment to your quite time.
    Happy Belated Tea Day

Forest Goodies and Other Projects

 Hello Crafty Friends. I just got the Stamperia Forest Paper and Die Cuts in the mail so I had to play with them right away.   I have a combo creation - journal page and card.  On the journal page I used my 6x6 Dina Wakley Journal and laid a base of gesso.  I then used Dina's pastel crayons and some SU! inks and stamps.  Also added in some TH Dress Ink in Vintage Photo since I don't know how to make anything without it  (seriously).   The eagle is a Stamperia Forest die cut and is coated with gesso.  Did a bit of stenciling and distressing to finish the page off.  I am linking this the the **Art*Journal*Journey* September Texture Theme (last day - can't wait to see what October's Theme will be).  The die cut and the little smears add texture to the already very textured page.   I love the blue and green together and was inspired to made a quick card for my Son-in-law who cut down some tree limbs for us the other day....

Halloween Lunch Pictures and Some Art

Happy T-day! Our favorite local restaurant is Fox's Pizza Den where they have great pizza, sandwiches, pasta and salads. They also have a Bourbon Bar.  Prices range from $7 to almost $1,000 on the bourbon and bourbon drinks.   Each holiday, the bourbon bar comes up with fun holiday themed drinks and they decorate the bar too.  A few weeks ago, we headed there for lunch and to try one of the new drinks.  Here is the holiday drink menu and my tickets to T-day over at Elizabeth's Blog where we share our fun drink related items from the week.  Of course, my daughter loves vampire books and movies so she picked the blood bag. I go more for taste so I got the Meet Your Maker - it was wonderful.   We shared a pizza and a salad.  I forgot to take a picture of the pizza, but I did get one of the salad. It had grilled chicken and potato wedges - super fun.  They make their ranch dressing on site and it is wonderful.  My husband has been know...

Dreams of Fall, Numbers, and a Cool Drink

I hate to admit it, but I am already looking forward to Fall!  That is also the theme for this House Mouse card I finished up today. I stamped this 2009 Turning Over a New Leaf (Monica) image on the envelope too because the current House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge #392 theme is decorate your envelope too.  On the card, I stamped the image, popped up some of the leaves and drew in some branches.  The background and leaves are watercolored with DOX ink.  Monica is colored with pencils and watercolor.   I sure wished it was Fall on Saturday when we were watching our youngest grandson at the 6U All Star State Championship. It was very hot. His team lost in the semi-finals. We were very proud of how hard they played. Speaking of baseball, I did two pages on our two All-Stars. I am linking them up to the Numbers theme at **Art*Journal*Journey* .  I have numbers in the journaling and there are numbers on their jerseys.   The All Stars cap ...
