This is a close-up photo of the reflection of the kitchen ceiling fixture light on the bottom of a glass coffee urn.
Gorgeous modern sunflower varieties are really incredible with such vibrant dark colours. Deep reds and golds are a perfect image of lazy late summer days, with just a hint of autumn on the horizon.
The pot mill is the latest gallery Dutchman's windmill in the Minden-Lübbecke county.
The 18-m-high, slightly conical break stone tower was established in 1938.
Already in 1745 a "king's mill" was built in this location.
The name Pot mill should have originated because the tower with the put on cap looks like a coffeepot.
The mill was equipped technically well: Two groats ways, a set of millstones, a roller chair with 2 current plan harvester and a cleaning for grain could be driven with wind as well as with engine.
The mill was stripped and and now used as a storehouse.

I turned on my morning coffee maker and it really does make bubbles. ..;))

The Coffee Pot Rock is cleary visible in the right center of the photo. The dome-shaped mound to the left in the foreground is named Sugarloaf.
Some of my dinosaurs turned up at teatime, for the Crazy Tuesday 'Coffee or Tea' theme (5-Jul-2022).
Can you guess what they asked for?
(And yes, I finally got my teapot to stop levitating, thank goodness😂)

The Hellebore or Lenten Rose has to be one of the most beautiful garden flowers of early spring. Sadly, they don't last long, when cut, but do look absolutely stunning in an arrangement. Vintage china and an antique hand-made family heirloom lace tray cloth complement the delicate beauty of the flowers.

I have quite a lot of pottery, of one sort or another & I've decided to do a series of textured still life images using it. This coffee set belonged to my parents.
This is a close-up photo taken through the bottom of a glass coffee pot of a spirit catcher hanging in the kitchen window.
Porcelain was first developed in China around 2,000 years ago, then slowly spread to other East Asian countries, and finally Europe and the rest of the world. Its manufacturing process is more demanding than that for earthenware and stoneware, the two other main types of pottery, and it has usually been regarded as the most prestigious type of pottery for its delicacy, strength, and its white colour. It combines well with both glazes and paint, and can be modelled very well, allowing a huge range of decorative treatments in tablewares, vessels and figurines. It also has many uses in technology and industry. This coffee pot was seen in an abandoned fabric in Arzberg,

So, another lockdown with which to commence the year, curiously starting on a Tuesday. I had some plans when it was announced last night to incorporate possibly a handcuff and being shackled to my work laptop (the previous plan having been taking a knife to it…). In any event, I had already had some plan of a rituals based photo at one point, and what finer day than today.
This morning’s brew is a Stokes Christmas coffee, possibly one of the little known gems from Lincoln, but alas I didn’t really take advantage of it when studying there way back in the middle of the noughties. Ah, such a long time ago. Anyway, for me coffee is one of those things that if you’re not going to have it fresh then there’s no point bothered, hence having never been one of the office slaves to crappy instant coffee. I have always likened it being a ‘thin’ drink compared to even a cafetiere pot, let alone a full on latte or mocha.
Previous rituals I have relied on to (try and) get me through the working week have been the Monday morning treat of a sit down coffee with a-fresh-out-the-oven pastry after dropping Squishlet off at nursery. Lockdown 2.0 put an end to that, followed by tier 3 and all manner of escalations which no doubt the generation after my daughter’s will learn about in history lessons, assuming we as a species make it that far. Thus by the grace of some non-existent being do we all fade into the past.
My motivation for work is low. I think a quote from Office Space is therefore appropriate on this day: “I, uh, I don’t like my job, and, uh, I don’t think I’m gonna go anymore… I don’t think I’d like another job”. Roll on another time.

I love Christmas, and a Christmas with all the trimmings is just what I enjoy. Therefore Christmas luncheon had on the back terrace in beautiful weather this year, is a classic affair. Antique Edwardian salon chairs, Royal Albert "Val d'Or" tableware, crystal glasses, Sheffield cutlery, antique silverware and my grandmother's napkin rings, antique linen, embroidered napery, and festive Christmas crackers.
However, it is my floral centrepiece that I enjoy most about my table setting every Christmas. This year my florist supplied me with creamy pink and magenta roses. The asparagus fern comes from my garden, as I like to create my own centrepieces.
So why pink? Pink isn't exactly the first colour that springs to mind when you think of Christmas. A few weeks before Christmas 2022, a very dear Flickr friend of mine in America sent me a wonderful Christmas parcel full of lots of lovely presents, including a set of six Sheffield Steel knives from the early 1950s with porcelain handles painted in pink and hand decorated and gilded. She hoped that they might look good on my Christmas table, which they would have since the floral arrangement I made for my centrepiece that year also consisted of pink roses. What my friend did not count on was the backlog of Christmas parcels in the post. Sadly, they did not arrive until after New Year 2023. However they did make it to my Christmas table setting last year and again this year, so I ordered roses to match them especially from my florist. The knives were remarked upon favourably by all the diners at my table this Christmas Day luncheon. This same friend sent me the cake slice to match the knives last year, and it arrived before Christmas, so I was able to use it to slice and serve my Christmas plum pudding, and I used it again this year.
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas Day and are enjoying the time between here and New Year's Eve.
Lots of warm rich tones here — perfect for a cold winter's evening — you can almost smell the coffee...

I went to the Wind Point Lighthouse yesterday and was impressed with the appearance of the grounds; everything so neat and clean! Near the lighthouse keeper's house there were a number of containers planted with flowers set next to the flower beds. I especially liked this old watering can!
When it rains it pours; this is #7 in Explore this morning!
This wasn't set up...it was just that it's the wife's birthday today and l thought l'd be nice to her for a change and give her a nice "really" cup of coffee this morning.........without the usual Arsenic in it :-)

Duxbury Pier lighthouse also called Duxbury Light (nicknamed the "Bug Light") is a lighthouse located in Plymouth Harbor, Massachusetts. Duxbury Pier Light was built in 1871 on the north side of the main channel in Plymouth Harbor to mark the dangerous shoal off Saquish Head. The unusual coffeepot-shaped lighthouse is locally known as "Bug Light" or simply "The Bug." It was the first so-called sparkplug lighthouse in the United States. Application was made to list the lighthouse on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.
Bug Light survived the Hurricane of 1944 when 30-foot (9.1 m) waves battered the isolated station. Heavy seas on the east side destroyed the fog bell mechanism, the lightkeepers’ boat, and its outhouse. In 1983 Duxbury Pier Light was slated by the Coast Guard to be replaced by a fiberglass tower much like the one that had replaced Boston Harbor's old Deer Island Lighthouse. The Coast Guard had estimated that a renovation of the current structure would have cost $250,000. A group of concerned local residents formed Project Bug Light. A five-year lease was granted to the preservation committee. The Coast Guard sandblasted and painted the structure and did some repair work in 1983; the work was completed in 1985. The Coast Guard spent $100,000 to refurbish the lower half of the lighthouse. Project Bug Light raised $20,000 from local businesses, as well as sales of T-shirts and bumper stickers, a fashion show, baseball games, and raffling a painting. They used this money to restore the upper parts and the interior, including the rebuilding of the roof and the catwalk. At the same time solar power replaced the older battery system. The fog signal was also converted to solar power. In the late 1980s, vandals broke into the lantern room, leaving it susceptible to leaks. The weather deteriorated the wood interior so much that all the wood had to be removed, leaving bare iron walls. After a few years Project Bug Light virtually dissolved as an organization, and the five-year lease expired. In 1993, the Coast Guard again talked of replacing the lighthouse with a fiberglass pole, or at least removing the lantern room. This time, Dr. Don Muirhead of Duxbury, an avid sailor, spearheaded a new preservation effort. The Coast Guard again refurbished the lighthouse in 1996. The volunteers of Project Bug Light continue to do maintenance at the light and have raised more than $80,000 toward the continued preservation of "The Bug." To quote volunteer Edwin Heap, "It's an ugly old historical thing, but we're glad it's been saved."
