Teableau for 02/22/26

Who else's progenitors had glass animals on glass baskets?

"Promise"
Teableau for 02/05/26

I had the cup, but no saucer for it. I searched for a long time in thrift stores, yard sales, & antique shops until I found this saucer. I knew it wasn't an exact match, but I believed it showed promise.

"January Days"
Teableau for 01/23/26

Kind of astonishing that January is nearly over already.

Today’s #Thanksgiving #coffee pick: seriously, what else am I going to drink today but #pumpkinspice coffee? Today it comes from Dunkin. Into the #espresso machine with you! Nice aroma while brewing, not quite enough to overshadow the aromas from my other #solofeast preparations, but still very nice. Flavored with a splash of pumpkin spice syrup, packed with ice and topped off with (what else) pumpkin spice creamer.

Paired today with a fruity selection of semi-local apple cider in my recently acquired #depressionglass rose glass. Just the stuff for an afternoon feast channel-flipping between the #MacysThanksgivingParade and Harry Potter marathon.

"Kit Kat Chit Chat"
Teableau for 11/16/25

The larger cat is a vintage Avon perfume bottle holding Here's My Heart cologne. When I was 7, a great- grandmother I'd not yet met sent me a tiny bottle of the same cologne from across the country, so the scent is poignant for me.

"Together"
Teableau for 10/22/25

Mute Swans by British artist Robert Gillmor.
Mute Swans are England's largest bird and only swan. We have them in Puget Sound, as well, but they're an invasive species here, crowding the native Tundra Swans nearly to extinction. Lethal beauty.
