T Stands For Tea At Sea

Psalms 37:4-5 "Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.  Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass."

Greetings to those out in Blogland!  It is that time again when the T Gang link up over at Bleubeard & Elizabeth's Altered Book Lover for T Stands For Tuesday!  Besides sharing a drink, we share photos and artwork.  So come a long and join us!  Just click on the link above and you will see Elizabeth's post and links to all the T Gang.  You could joins us, too, if you want!  Just be sure you share a drink related item in your post.

My husband always does Valentine's Day in a big way because he proposed to me on Valentine's Day.  He usually plans something really special, this year, it was the Hawaiian Cruise.  He proposed 53 years ago, and we will celebrate 53 years of marriage in September.  Yep, I do think he is a keeper!  
We were on the ship at sea on Valentine's Day.  This is our dessert, and all the ladies got a special one.

Tea at Sea


This cake was outside the Dining room as we entered.

The celebration as hundreds of us re-did our wedding vows in celebration of Valentine's Day.  The captain officiated.  Valentine's Day was really special on this cruise!
The above card I took on the cruise to give to my husband.   I can't remember if I made it or not.  It was in my stash of cards and might have come to me in a swap!  Sorry, that if someone else made it and I can't remember who!

Thank you for stopping by and for all your comments and input.  Happy T Day!

T Stands For Cruising!

Psalms 37:4-5 "Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.  Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass."


Hello blog followers and T Gang!  I have been gone for a couple of weeks.  I did think I was pretty smart and scheduled one post for while I was "at sea", but then could not link it to the T Party or Tag Tuesday, and of course could not comment from my iPad!  I don't know why, but I can comment from my iPad on Altered Book Lover.  So, thank you to Elizabeth who linked my blog post to T Stands For Tuesday.  I tried to comment on Tag Tuesday, but couldn't.  It was really frustrating. You know, I used to be able to do a post to my blog from my iPad and can't do that now.  I think this is all to do with Blogger!  Today when I got on, I had a message that beginning in March, there will be a lot more changes.  I may not be blogging anymore!  I like blogger because it is free.  

Ok, enough whining!  I had a wonderful 15 day Hawaiian cruise! I won't share it all in one post! But here is a photo of some of the wonderful  memorabilia I brought home.  It will used it in my scrapbooking!  I even attended crafting classes on board!



 Sharing the menu from the night we left Maui. 




Our view from our dinner table that night.  We had just left Maui, where we had seen whales all day.  We even saw several real close to the ship from our window while we ate!  What a show they put on!




And for Elizabeth's T Stands For Tuesday, here is a photo of our water at our meal. First  I had the Black Tiger Prawn!  Then I had this scrumptious Shrimp Bisque, before my wonderful Maaine Lobster Tail main dish.  Hubby had the steak. Then we both had the Fudge Obsession!  After two weeks on this floating city, with so many wonderful food choices, we will have to eat less for a while!

Happy T Day!  More Cruise and food photos next week!  Thanks for stopping by!

T Stands for Tuesday, Teapot & Tag

Psalms 37:4-5 "Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.  Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass."

Welcome to my blog!  I have a couple of items to show you today as I join Elizabeth over at Altered Book Lover  for T Stands For Tuesday and Tag Tuesday.

First for Elizabeth here is another one of my teapots:



This was among one of the first I ever was gifted.  It was given me the Christmas before our first grandson was born to commemorate the event and also because Noah's Ark was the theme of his nursery even though this was for me!   Our dear grandson is now 22!  Wow!  I took a photo of it with all the stuffed animals as I thought that was appropriate.


For Tag Tuesday, where Michele has challenged us to use hearts as the theme,  I made this tag.  Again, I use my tags and whenever I scrap this years Valentine photos, this will probably be on the layout, so you might see it again!



I didn't have a heart stencil, so made one!  I used acrylic paint, bronze Fun Farmers Journey Silks to flick, and stickers, rhinestones, and Tim Holtz Small Talk stickers, and lace. 

Thank you for visiting!  A message to the Tea Gang:  Happy Tea Day!  I may be really late to visit you!
