Melissa’s Cozy Teacup

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I bought the skirt, bottom left, ( it’s a medium, I am not) to sell on Ebay. then they went and changed everything and I no longer like the way they do business. If you like it, make me an offer. Happy Blue Monday!

So, I had a copyright infringement incident over the weekend. Some of my friends in blog land have experienced awful situations regarding their work being stolen. I am so happy to report that the person in this situation was very receptive to what I had to say and said she would change her post. You just never know what kind of reaction you’ll get form people, and I must admit I came on a bit strong in my email to her. I think more because I didn’t want to do the mountains of paperwork this sort of thing involves than being hurt or offended over what had happened. I really, REALLY wanted her to see the light before the situation escalated to paperwork. Since mine was not the only article copied in full, I choose to believe it was a simple matter of misunderstanding. I have made mistakes in the past regarding copyright issues. Hey, it’s a live and learn kind of world. I get it.

So peace to the gal, she seems nice, and I wish her well in her blogging endeavors and rainbows and ponies to boot!

So, Tech hubby and I were treated to lunch at the Black Eyed Pea by our home group/church friends. My goodness. I have not seen so much blue hair since I went to Furr’s Cafeteria. I was in granny land! I love watching older couples. there’s just some thing about older people that makes we warm and fuzzy on the inside.

After lunch we went to the gianto store where you buy everything in bulk. We shopped with the same friends with whom we had lunch. I’m beat!

Have a great weekend everyone! Don’t forget your free card.

p.s. Would some one please make a cup of tea for me and bring me a cookie with it? Two lumps, no milk, no lemon. Thanks!

I added a Flickr badge. If you love tea, Flickr has a large selection of tea photos to satisfy your thirst for beautiful tea photography. Also, Kimberly Shaw has a Flickr account and you get to view the cards she is working on before they are released to the public to buy. I love her story (which is on Flickr) of how she was, ‘discovered’ and now her cards are being sold all over the place. Woohoo!

Okay, now some one please do that for my writing. yes, that’s it, thank you!

Do you know the person growing your food?

I got up early and went to the farmer’s market. I wasn’t sure how much longer it would be going on since the days are getting shorter and much cooler. I was assured the market would go into October. Woohoo! I’m wondering if I should buy some bees wax and attempt to dip my own candles? Hmmm, I’ll have to think about that one. For $14.00 I picked up the following items, contributing to the local economy (which cuts down on fuel consumption and costs) and helping to keep (hopefully) local farmers in business.

4 onions

4 round zucchini thingys. They look like lttle green pumpkins and have strips on them.

1 bag of roasted Anaheim chilies I took home and used to make chili rellenos using pork rinds as a substitute for the flour. Yeah, it was wacky but good. I doctored it up and Tech Hubby loved it.

1 giant almond croissant. Oh yeah, it’s gonzo!

1 bottle of orange blossom honey.

1 cantelope

1 large coconut macaroon cookie

1 spaghetti squash the man whole sold it to me said that the day after he cooks his, he makes ‘hash browns’ out of the left overs. You know I’m going to have to try this!

and last, but not least,

2 cloves of garlic
