Blue Monday 11/24
Monday! You know that that means? It's time for Blue Monday, so graciously hosted by Sally @ Smiling Sally
Be sure to pay her a visit and see who else is bouncing around in Blue today.
My morning coffee mug. It's super sized to give me that great big caffeine jolt I need to get myself moving in the morning. I sure do love me a good cup of coffee in the morning.
This is my blue mixing bowl with pour spout. It's a fire king and was my mother's. When she passed, dad gave it to me.This small juice/water pitcher was given to me by my dad. It used to have two small juice glasses that went with it, but those have since been broken. I tend to use this as a candle holder. The flickering flame looks especially nice glowing through the cobalt color.Thanks for stopping by and sharing a bit of your Monday with me. I hope you'll let me know you were here. Have a great day!

Hello Rechelle,
Decided to comment before I go crawl into bed! Love all your lovely blue. I really like that mixing bowl...
Have a wonderful Monday and if I don't get around to your blog later this week have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!
Hi~ I really like all of your blue today. That mixing bowl is just lovely. Have a great week and a Happy Thanksgiving.
Hi, Rechelle! I love your little blue mug and other pretties. And I plant to come back and leisurely peruse your little nest on the net. Here's hoping you have a wonderful Blue Monday! Thanks for dropping by my blog, too.
XO,
Sheila :-)
Lovin' all those great blue items; could have used that mixing bowl today!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Those are great items, Rechelle! I especially love your mom's old mixing bowl with the pour spout! Have a happy Blue Monday!...Donna
Love the mixing bowl! Great selection of blues!
Ooh pretty blues. Interesting that you put a candle in the blue pitcher. That must look nice.
All lovely blue tones! But wow would I love drinking my morning coffee from that stunning blue mug!
Good morning Rechelle, I do love your blue today. I too drink my coffee in a BIG mug in the morning. I would love to drink my coffee in that vintage blue mug. Your mixing bowl is a treasure from your mom's passing. I have many things I cherish from my mom passing too. They become more dear as time goes by.
Happy blue Monday.
Hugs...Jeanne
Isn't it something the way we've all become so addicted to our morning coffee? I'm sipping a cup right now. I'm glad that you have things that were your mother's. Happy Blue Monday!
I can see that you also like blue in your every life. I really like your coffee cup. It's a neat idea to use the lovely blue pitcher for a candle holder. Happy Blue Monday.

Hi!
Like all you blue this week! I don't drink coffee, but that would be the perfect size mug of hot chocolate! Take Care!!
Morning, Rechelle. I just love all of your blueness this morning. Every time I come to your blog, I linger, I love this song!!
Thanks so much for the birthday wishes,
Be a sweetie,
Shelia :)
Lovely and special blue items.
Those are all so pretty! I'd love to have a mixing bowl with a spout like that.
Nice blues! Happy Thanksgiving.
While your blog was loading up for me, I realized I was drinking my water from my one blue glass mug, and was thinking, oh, I have to remember to take a pic of this for a future Blue Monday post. Then, your post loaded and voila - we have the same mug! That's so neat!
My first Blue Monday! This is fun!
Hi Rechelle!
I really like your blue! I love a big mug!!! And oh how cool to have a mixing bowl with a pour spout!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!

I'm with you on the coffee. Even though mine is always decaf, I still need it in the morning.
I love your bowl and pitcher, and coming from your parents makes them even nicer.
Hi there..

I really love the blue color of that mug. I'm with you, nothing is as wonderful as that first cup of coffee in the morning!!! That is a nice idea using the pitcher as a candle holder. I'm sure the flickering light is really pretty.
take care,
Dawn
I enjoyed seeing your vintage blue treasures. How handy to have a bowl with a pouring spout. Have a great day. Sally

I love that blue mug..the color is great. I would prefer diet coke though..lol
Man... do they still make Fire King kitchenware? My mom has a 4-cup glass Fire King measuring cup that she's had from the time I was ... well maybe before I was born. I think the thing is indestructible.
Oooo, a Fireking bowl with a spout. Love it. Have a great Thnaksgiving!
The blues are lovely. I especially like the mug.
Hope you had a happy blue Monday.

I love cobalt glass - I have a little cobalt cruet set that my husband's grandmother gave me. Belonged to her mother. I've always thought it was her way of welcoming me into the family, so I'm especially fond of it.
By the way, I used to have that same breadbox.
