According to Behind the Name, Melanie means "black, dark". I've known that for years. I also know I was named after Melanie Wilkes, just like the article says. But wait a minute, I've already done this one for Mama Kat. You can read it here.
So let's start again.
5. Share a list of some of your most recent favorite things.
1. New teas to try. Okay I might have gone a bit overboard on this one.
2. New tea mugs. I really only meant to buy one. But they came in sets of 2 and they were really cute and I had a gift card . . .
3. I'm still in love with my new/old Hoosier cabinet.
4. This little corner in my office/nook.
5. This new recipe that was super easy and yummy, especially for a cold winter night. I served it with apple/chicken sausages.

What a fun post, Melanie! I personally think you can never have too many teas or adorable mugs (I LOVE those fox ones!) And a gift card to boot! But of course! :) Glad to be visiting you from our 31 Day Survivors 5 for 5 link up. Have a blessed day, friend!
ReplyDeleteIf you haven't tried that comfort and joy blend from republic tea, you're in for a treat. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun prompt.
I had it last year and LOVED it! Republic of Tea is my favorite brand. Thanks for stopping by :)
DeleteOOooh those teas AND mugs look so good! (Funny - I wrote a post on Names earlier this week too!)
ReplyDeleteHi! Found you on Mama Kat. I love the packaging of the teas and your mugs are super cute!
ReplyDeleteYum!!! I might have to try that recipe. I love teas and that peppermint bark one sounds yummy!!! My name Tara means "Rocky pinnacle."
ReplyDeleteI'm not usually a choc. tea fan, but this one is yummy with a bit of demerara sugar and some milk. Might have to try it with warmed frothed milk!
DeleteThis is a great idea for a post. I love your Hoosier! Beautiful. And while I am not a tea drinker, those mugs are indeed too cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you! You could have coffee or hot chocolate instead :) They came from T.J. Maxx.
DeleteYou simply cannot have too many teas and tea cups. It is just not conceivable. Fun post!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree. Unfortunately I have a small kitchen, so storage does become an issue :)
DeleteFun! I always wonder who's going to pick up on my "repeat prompts". :) After so many years coming up with new ones I do enjoy going consulting old lists. You're so loyal to me!
ReplyDeleteLet's do tea.
