Have you noticed any topics that are popular among slicers? When I was reading Ramona's slice about teasers she can't resist, it made me think about common topics slicers write about: not having anything to write about, cats, books, fun or exotic places, family, and coffee!
I am not a coffee drinker, but I do have a collection of mugs that I have received from various people. You may ask what a person does with mugs who isn't addicted to doesn't drink coffee?
They hold PENS of course!!
This mug holds a special place in my heart. I am part of a group of eight friends from high school known as the EJDs. Each flower represents one of us and has the quote, "It takes a long time to grow old friends."
The first five pictures are the pens I have at school, and the other two are home. I did not include the ones that are housed in cute little glass jars. But those will show up at my slicer party that will be this Saturday! I hope you can attend sometime this month! I look forward to sharing with you my version of the newest trend!
a space for me and other teacher-writers to share our stories.

ReplyDeleteHooray for pens! Hooray for mugs (especially ones with 8 flowers for 8 friends)! Hooray for the slicer party!
There is always a use for a good mug. We have one in the bathroom that holds toothbrushes. Of course, I am a coffee addict so my favorite mug is the one that holds twice as much coffee as a normal mug. arjeha
ReplyDeleteI think I love the variety of pens even more that the cute collection of mugs! Thanks for sharing this (and helping me add pens to my shopping list!) ~ fireflytrails
ReplyDeleteI love a good mug too! I am picky about coffee mugs (less picky about tea mugs), and if a mug doesn't work for either of those purposes, I repurpose to store something or other. I enjoyed getting to see your pen collection!
ReplyDeleteI too use mugs as pen, pencil, marker, brush holders. We teachers get a lot of them, I suspect.
