T Tuesday: quick edition

This edition of T stands for Tuesday is going to be short and sweet. Little more than the required beverage and a few words about my week.

The past week was a busy as I had suspected. I had very little time (read that as no time) to be creative. Saturday was spent in the yard cleaning up leaves and mowing one last time before Mr. G winterized the mower. Good thing too because….

when I looked out the window on Sunday morning the snow was flying. We got close to an inch. Of course its all melted now but that was just not what I expected to see…too soon Mother Nature, too soon.

A co-worker gifted me with this fun old book and 7 Gypsies tags after I had talked about the various ways I use old books. 

I treated myself to some K-cups for work. The staff lounge has a Keurig machine to make single cups of coffee now. Of course it’s BYOP (bring your own pod) but that’s ok. I don’t use it often but there are just some days that I really need an extra jolt of caffeine.

That’s it for today for me. I got up 45 mins early today otherwise this brief post wouldn’t have happened either. :)

 

What are you doing today?

    Oh no- it was cruel to snow already:(:( Glad it wasn’t much and melted. Must be fun looking thru the old cookbook. Nice you have a Keurig at work and can make whatever you choose. Happy T day!

    Snow already! Thankfully the real cold weather has not hit Pennsylvania yet but it has suddenly turned cold. Hope you enjoy turning your old book into a beautiful piece of art. Looking forward to see the end result.
    Happy Tea Day,

    Oh, the dreaded four-letter word SNOW. Way to early! Will be interested to see what you do with the old book. the K-cups are expensive, but uber convenient especially when you make a bad cup of coffee like I do. Happy T Day

    I apologize for being so late, but the electricity on my block went out many hours ago just as I was commenting on Lisca’s post. So anyone who linked after Eileen gets this apology message.

    Before my electricity went off this morning, I noticed that YOU were warmer than I was here in KS. How can that be? There was snow here, too, but it was a few flakes that turned to water as soon as it hit the warm grass and pavement. I was SO lucky. I brought my chiminea inside before the weather turned bitterly cold. I forgot my hoses, though, so was outside last night dragging them inside because it was too cold to stretch them out and roll them properly. I hope your chiminea is OK and makes it inside before you get freezing weather.

    Let’s see. Who are the Vikings? Do they ever play the Lakers? JUST JOKING, dear friend.

    You have made a great friend to have gifted you with that book AND some 7-G embellishments.

    Thanks for sharing your snow, old book, and Viking blend, as well as your darling mug with us for T this Tuesday. And thank you beyond belief for your help today.

    We got 3/10s of an inch of snow already Monday! I agree with you that it is too early! I didn’t get a chance to take a photo, because I had to take my hubby to the hospital for in and out same day surgery. Have to do again in two weeks, also. But hope snow doesn’t come again! Happy belated tea day!

    Oh my! Snow already! (Having said that: we had had a hail storm down in southern Spain!)
    That Antique book looks fun to read. How kind of your frined and also gifting you with those embellshments.
    Yes, pod machines are very popular here too. We don’t have one as the pods are very expensive, and that is only ok if you drink coffee occasionally, but my hubby has coffee every day…
    Happy belated T-Day,
    Lisca
