...thanks for the info on Alberta Hunter.
ReplyDeleteYou look ready to celebrate the season. Is that 2 piece pumpkin a covered mug? Happy T day Nita.
ReplyDeleteNo, it's a candle holder. We've never been able to figure out how to use it.
DeleteToo late! My coffee is all gone! :-)
ReplyDeleteOMG! I must have watched this when it was on back then! I remembered her face right away--and laughed at her workin' man song...was enthralled by her tales and that no man got anything over on her! I had no memory of this whatsoever...but as soon as this started I knew I had seen it. Dagan would have been going on three...I can remember where we were living. This was really a fun one for me. Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteI like your Halloween mug! Valerie
ReplyDeleteFunny song, this lady knows what counts!
ReplyDeleteShe´s quite an idol, hope to be that fit at that age, too.
Love the cuppa - happy T-Day!
What a cool song! She was wonderful. Great cup and Halloween items. Fun post! Happy t-day and hugz
ReplyDeleteAll the pumpkin decorations and mugs are really fun. My Halloween stuff is still in the attic, and I don’t know if this year it will stay there. I really have to buy treats, though — we sometimes have more than 100 TrickOrTreaters.

Great voice! Love all your pumpkins. Happy T Day! Elle xx
ReplyDeleteOHHHH I love her. What a character. A great selection of Halloween items too.
ReplyDeleteI had never heard of Alberta Hunter before, so thank you for introducing me to her via this fun video. Loved the Working Man's song.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore your vignette. It is wonderful and I am in love with how you created it, as well as this latest Halloween inspired mug, too. Thanks for sharing the video and your lovely vignette and drink with us for T this Tuesday, dear Nita.
Loving your pumpkins and the mug. I have never heard of this video before.
ReplyDeleteHappy tea Day,

I like your little Halloween pumpkin collection. Sorry I'm so late this week.
ReplyDeleteIsn't she the best? I heard her at our folk festival a very long while ago -- she had the audience in the palm of her hand! Love the photo, too!
ReplyDeleteI loved reading about the Working Man and My Castle's Rocking! The pictures are great, and it seems like you are ready for awesome Halloween celebration. Thanks for sharing. Happy belated T-Tuesday!
