Haunted mugs

It's spooky week!

 

 

You know I didn’t want to have to haunt you, but what a ghostly scene.

 

New addition this year: This Tim Hortons ghost mug changes colour when you fill it with a hot drink!

 

 

Are you a good witch or a bad witch?

 

 

So, they filled my cell with snakes...

 

Happy Halloween!

A pink truck and pink teacup

In October, the Mississauga Fire Fighters Benevolent Fund sell Pink Truck Tour gear (t-shirts, long-sleeved shirts, quarter-zip sweaters, hoodies, and baseball caps) to raise funds for the Trillium Health Partners’ Cancer Program. The Pink Truck Tour has raised more than $1,000,000 since 2014!

 

 

I was more than happy to buy a hoodie and contribute to their 10-year anniversary goal of raising $100,000 this year!

 

 

A pink teacup in honour of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

 

This Royal Albert Lady Carlyle teacup belongs to my mom who was influenced to get it by her teacup-loving daughter!

Anne of Green Gables Mug

It seems only fitting that I share my handmade Anne of Green Gables mug this month.

 

This beautiful mug was crafted by Milushka, a talented potter in Croatia who specializes in storytelling ceramics.

 

“Kindred spirits are not so scarce as I used to think. It’s splendid to find out there are so many of them in the world.”

 

 "I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers."
