Mug Rug Exchange - Do it yourself style!

[lotti]

Fine time to catch a cold, eh, Lotti! Get well soon! Ginger tea (sliced ginger boiled for 20 minutes in water and add honey or sugar, not the tea bag) is my old standby--will definitely help.

Yup, that the way I makemine... Well I just pour the boiling water over the ginger slices and let it steep till cool enough to drink... The last cup is usually the 'hottest', and I love munching on the ginger slices, they never make it to the compost

Will try the tea tree oil rub as well, have been using it for years, bur never for colds so...

Feel better soon Lotti. I was going to guess a chicken Wendy.

[twiglet]

I do have a lot of chicken mugs :lol: and cat, flower and nascar. Anyone into Nascar?

[twiglet]

Lotti - I hope you're tucking under a nice warm cozy quilt will sipping your ginger tea.

Wendy - a chlickard?

:?

These are a good chance to practice fmq. I'm just finishing my second one, very simple but I like the effect. I want to show you but I can't. Now I know what Maureen, Limbania and Marilyn feel like with whispers :lol:

[twiglet]

:roll: Oops

Of course those mug rugging at Limbanias with me have seen it :lol: It's been a great day today sitting out in the sun sewing and planning our mug rugs. No snow or bitter winds here :P

[Reetzbobeetz]

That's true, and my tan is coming on nicely! Pass the suncream will you please Wendy.

[Reetzbobeetz]

Oh dear, once again I am lost as to where the conversation has gone.

[twiglet]

:lol: I'm lost as to what thread I'm on. That's Rita's influence...........hic. I forgot the suncream I'm going to be like a lobster in the morning.

[Reetzbobeetz]

Sorry about that Ritzy... Wendy is so drunk she skipped from the Chinese Whispers thread to here without even noticing. I think she's back there now. Carry on as though nothing happened. :wink: And happy Easter.

[Reetzbobeetz]

Thanks for clearing that up Rita--I was beginning to wonder what was wrong with me.

I just received a little jewel of Mug Rug in the mail today. Guaranteed, no crumb cake, cookie, cracker, or coffee shall ever touch their messy selves to foul this jewel. And it's a dickie bird!!!! Absolutely beautiful.

So besides thanking the person that sent it profusely, are we going to post pictures anywhere (giver's permission, of course)? I don't know the protocol for such exchanges and Rosemary didn't post anything about this.

By the way, all the Whispering Lounge Lizards and Lizardettes have been extremely quiet. I hope Lotti, you are feeling better.

That must be one helluva party at Limbania's I hope everybody's heads are doing ok.

[Reetzbobeetz]

Susan I would love to see a photo of your mug rug. I don't have any problem with people posting photos of the mug rugs I send them.

[Reetzbobeetz]

It's quiet at Limbania's because we're all getting massages. Shhh! Mine is for 90 minutes.

[twiglet]

What a shame I had to go home.
