Coffee Station

Welcome to the dark underworld that exists under my kitchen cabinets. Taking a photo here is a hoot and a half. I called it the Coffee Cave in yesterday's post. In the McCoy cookie jar, on the left, are coffee filters. The coffee is in the coffee canister that I recently found at a thrift store(it hails from Pottery Barn originally). It has a tight seal on the lid that works well to keep air out.

The coffee pots sits on the right there by the sink so it is easy to fill with water.

Splenda and Sugar in the Raw are in these two containers. They are Trader Joe's Corn and Chile Salsa jars. I love TJ's graphics and never discard their jars or bottles. I keep these in the cabinet over the coffee maker. I may move them to the counter if I can find a tray that will hold every item.

I am so CraZy this week that I auto posted this for February first instead of today March first. Still some commented. Y'all are on top of things and clearly I am confused:}

hoping coffee brings you warmth today

T Y P O G R A P H Y On Dishes

You gals know I visited some high end outlets last weekend (see images of Pottery Barn Outlet in my last post). I bought  little as the purpose of the weekend was to see our daughter.  We did drop in on some thrift stores and found two Pottery Barn items. Woot. This "tea" cup was one of the finds. It was fifty cents. CC and Joe have already done one cup intervention. Guess it did not work.

The Pottery Barn coffee canister was two dollars. I will use it for coffee storage by the coffee maker.

"Honey Bunny" is a tea cup I ordered, at Christmas, from One Kings Lane. I ordered a few more for gifts. Crafted by artist Keith Bryner Jones a British ceramic designer. Each of his pieces has a word in a font recalling old type writers.

 On the next post I will show you my dark little coffee station. Prepare to enter the Coffee Cave.

In Olive Out news I am now on tumblr. The link is on my sidebar. I did not need another blog but Pinterest got me interested in tumblr. Where does this stop? Anyhoo, I am stumbling through tumblr.  I will be posting other peoples beautiful images and sometimes mine there. Sprinkled with quotes. This blog needs tons of technical work that I constantly avoid. I prefer fiddling with the pretty images and writing. I need Joe to retire and be my technical assistant. The pay would be awesome. Wink.

joy and grace
