T Stands For More Spice Merchant Mugs

 

Once again, I must apologize. For those of you who only visit on the occasional T Tuesday, if you wonder why you haven't heard from me, it's because Blogger has once again chosen to rear its ugly head and forbid me from leaving comments.  I get "Failed to Publish, Try Again Later."  I keep trying every so often.  This is more frustrating than you can imagine and my stress levels are extremely high.  One of these times, I'm hopeful my comments will get through.

Now let's return to The Spice Merchant. 

Several of you wanted to see the Christmas mugs on the lower shelf I showed two weeks ago.  I cropped several photos in hope you will be able to see them a bit better.

 



 

And possibly my favorite mug is the Christmas tree.  For those of you who are new to my blog, I decorate my home in all different types of tabletop Christmas trees each year.  I had to laugh at the description.  Basically, the tree becomes a carcass that sheds needles you find and pick up all over your home the rest of the year. 

I've shown you mine, now it's your turn to share your T entry this week.  The rules are extremely simple.  Your drink related post may be anything from a photo of a glass, cup, or mug, to an actual drink.  You may choose to share a sketch or a digital, hybrid, or traditional page in your scrapbook, art journal, or altered book, as I have done.  Maybe you'd prefer to share a tag, or wow us with your photography.  You might choose a postcard or decorated card.  You might even draw an image on a used tea bag.  Or perhaps you prefer to review a place you visited, a movie, or book.  It makes no difference as long as it's drink related.  And don't forget that the more unique and outside the box it is, the better we like it.  Please tie it back here, and please link only to your T post, not your entire blog.  When you link, Bleubeard, the T gang, and I will be by to visit.   Bleubeard would also like to remind you that your photos may be taken any time. 
 

 

 
Don't forget it's time to dig up your Second on the 2nd.  Any style, any genre, any length, as long as it has been published sometime before 2 December, 2025.

  1. I am sorry Blogger is giving you problems! Nice Christmas Tree mug. So, have you started decorating yet? I usually wait until mid December. And we don’t do as much as we used to. I hope you have a good T Day despite this dreary weather. Happy Thanksgiving!

  7. I like that Christmas tree mug too. Especially the description. I remember we had a real tree when I was a child and yes, we'd find needles everywhere for months. My parents placed the tree on a bed sheet which was spread out once the needles started to shed. We only had a coal fire in the house then so not like a. modern house with central heating.
    I'm sorry you are still having Blogger issues. I still think it is because you have an unusual operating system. Don't get too stressed about it. We all know and understand.
    We love you Elizabeth,
    Happy T-Day,
    Lisca
