I actually took this photo long before Monday Mugshots. When I was a little girl, my mom would pack marshmallows and hot chocolate when we would travel to the snow to look for our Christmas tree. I love this picture because it reminds me of those times... I used to look forward to those hot mugs of melty gooeyness after a cold day.... Ever since I was a kiddo, I have loved warm drinks in mugs. Honey and lemon in warm water when I had a sore throat... tea with my mom... coffee in the mornings... my hubby making me hot tea while we sit in bed and watch TV at night... No matter what is in the mug, when the drink is warm, it just speaks of one thing for me. Comfort. 

GLENDA
The only picture I had of my mug was one that was taken of me at work and luckily my little coffee/tea mug was on my desk so I added a little thought bubble.


SUMAIYAH
Background created with acrylic paint and ink sprays. Coffee cup made out of decorative scrapbook paper, outlined with black Molotow marker, and adhered to the page. Word bubbles cut from watercolor paper outlined with black Molotow marker and sentiments written with Sakura Gelly Roll pens. Written journaling done with white Molotow marker. Border painted with Light Portrait Pink acrylic paint, which was also used to highlight coffee mug and word bubbles.

LINDA
This is my Chai-Latte cup of tea. I found this little Budda at Indiska and just knew I needed him for my chai-latte tea. Not sure if either he or my cup is saying anything, but it looks like he is sleeping so when I saw the talk bubble in my stash I knew I had to use it for this prompt.
AMY
I was a slacker and totally spaced the prompt this week so I threw this photo together quite quickly. My husband & I came back to Pendleton to visit his parents for the weekend. This shot was taken at the end of a awesome day filled with friends, family & yummy food. Soo...if my mug could talk, it would say "This is a PERFECT ending to a AWESOME day!"

    My mug talks Dutch :-) but it says:
    "Finally another environtment than in front of that pc" (I always drink coffee in front of my pc)
    "Coffee again..." (I only drink coffee out of this mug)
    "I would like to have tea sometimes"
    "or hot chocolate"
    I took the picture on our Easter (breakfast) table.
    For the background I used wrapping paper with 'Easter colors'.
