T Stands For Thanksgiving Tea

 

I've given up hope of commenting on blog posts and have now taken to sending e-mails to those I know or easily find.  Failed to Publish has really gotten out of hand.

Last week I finally got around to putting out a few Thanksgiving decorations.

Today I'm celebrating Thanksgiving and anticipating a bit of Christmas.

I have another wonderful Cupper brand tea sent me by Iris, this time licorice and spearmint.   The wonderful handmade trivet is from Elle.
 
I'm using the "everyday" silver I inherited from my grandmother.  We used this silver unless we were having company, when the sterling silver came out.  We also used the sterling silver every Sunday.
 
I thought the colors of the rocking horse mug went nicely with the rest of the vignette.

I love this tea.  The scent was wonderful and the aftertaste was incredibly sweet, which I appreciated.  As you can see from these gifts from friends, I have much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving.  Thank you again, dear friends.

What do you have to be thankful for?  Please share, along with your own drink related post.  It can be photos, a place you visited, movies, postcards, books, sketches, mixed media, drawings, paintings, tags, scrapbooking, or other art that is digital, hybrid, or traditional, as long as it in some way relates back to a drink, any drink.  Regardless, please share below and Bleubeard and I will gladly visit, as will other T participants.  Please link only your T post and not your blog in general.  Bleubeard would like to remind you that old photos are acceptable because they may be taken any time, not just on Tuesday and not just this year.
 


 

 

I would also be remiss if I didn't remind you to be digging up your Second on the 2nd.  It can be any genre, any length, any style, as long as it has been published sometime in the past.

  4. I love your big turkey. What a fun decoration. And that tea does sound amazing. I would have never thought of that combination if I was making tea. You have to have had it with fail to publish notice. I hope you have a super T day. hugs-Erika

  10. What a beautiful decorative turkey! The males are truly impressive (the females unfortunately less so). I have recently discovered that the Spanish conquistadores saw turkeys in America (then unknown in Spain) and thought they were a less beautiful cousin of the peacock and consequently called it 'pavo'.
    That tea is very nice. I love it but it's not available here. (I think I bought some at the time in the UK). I love anything liquorice-sy.
    Happy Thanksgiving. (when is it?) and Happy T-Day.

  15. love your big turkey. Liquorice and mint is one of my favourite teas, Pukka do one too but they are just too expensive now. Hope you resolve your failed to publish issues finally. Happy Thanksgiving Tea!

  17. Licorice and spearmint?? What a wonderful combo. Glad to know you liked it. And the turkey- it reminds me that I have made two of those vintage turkey panel stuffed birds. All of my festive things are packed away while we complete our move- no blog posts, no sewing, not many recreational activities yet. But we are getting there slolwy.
