MMTPT60: 42,000 lbs. of Fish with our Tea!
 
1 Attachment(s)
Welcome to Teapot Tuesday and Challenge #60
42,000 lbs. of Fish with our Tea!!


This is my story!

1. Wait until you hear the deal I was able to get for us this week! We are going to Peggy's Cove in Nova Scotia! Yep, you heard that right! Isn't that the coolest? Ever since I met my friend Joanne (jojot) I have always wanted to go there because its one of her favorite places to visit. She's been there twice! Hey, she can be our quide!!

2. That's the good news! Now let me tell you about the...well, the other news! It's a busy tourist area and really hard to find a place to stay for so many people! But no worries, I struck a bargain with the Lighthouse People! We getta stay in the Light House! Right close to the ocean! Wonderful views, awesome sunsets, fresh ocean air, sounds of the ocean to sleep by! The only draw back is we can never turn the lights off so you guys will have to sleep with the lights on! Will that be a problem? Something about ships having to see the building! Oh, and there's just one more small thing, we have to do a little commercial fishing! We only have to catch 42,000 pounds of, um, well I can't remember what that dude called them, but I figure as long as whatever we catch is slimy and in the nets, we're good!!

3. Do any of you know how to fish? We all should try to watch a couple of episodes of The Deadliest Catch on the Discovery Channel before we come!! That oughta be good enough training! But here's my thought, just in case, everybody bring fish! Any kind! Worse case scenario, we will just fill up the nets with our fish and we're good! Oh, and you might wanna bring a fisherman looking raincoat, some shinny black boots, maybe even an extra boat, or lighthouse! You think we need rope? Actually, its quite an adventure, just bring what you think we need. The priority is fish though, any kind, just in case it's kinda hard to fish! Snort!!

Ever want to get a jump on next week's challenge card? I am posting a sneak peak (tea peak) on my blog each week showing you a glimpse of the following week's teapot as well as a hint of the story! It's at the end of the Teapot Tuesday Post each week. Be sneaky and get a jump on the other tea-potters! Snort!

HI CINDY! Did you know that Jason works at a NYS FISH HATCHERY! I am sure he will have plenty of tips for us about what fish we will need to catch to pay our keep! LOVE LOVE that lighthousepot! And your card is PERFECT! And I'll bring some Chips Ahoy, hee!

resqbarbie 08-18-2009 04:59 AM

hey speaking of fish DH and I are taking the kiddos to Coney Island Aquarium tomorrow...what a coincidence! Gonna work on this one later today!

foxy67 08-18-2009 04:59 AM

I see the light, now just to see the fish!!
 
This is just adorable Cindy, and love your card too. And of course it's a perfect replica of the lighthouse pot. Well this should be a interesting t-pot party this week.

ctorina 08-18-2009 05:54 AM

This challenge sounds really fishy to me, but since Kelly is bringing Chips Ahoy I will try to pop into the party later today! Your card is just fantastic!

Stamp Muse 08-18-2009 06:59 AM

Hi everyone! I slapped this card together in a hurry this morning, but it sure is great to see everyone again! Although this teaparty seems a little fishy to me! I must get to work, so will comment later.

Here's my lighthouse
 
Hello ladies! I hope I didn't sound to pretentious about it being my Cove. It's a kid thing! LOL Here's my card, now I can't wait to go admire all that's been done already!
Have a good one, and hugs to you all and especially Cindy for this grand day at PEGGY'S COVE!

jaydekay 08-18-2009 08:31 AM

Oh! what a bummer! I don't get to play till friday or so.. we are up and out of town for a couple of days...
when I get back~~~~~~~ I hope there aren't to many fish pileing up that I won't be able to find the party...
I am so excited to see the area that peggy lives in... woo hoo..
have fun girls.. I will check in when I get back!
this sounds like a fun party Cindy!!! happy fishing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

joan ervin 08-18-2009 09:22 AM

I finally made it, Cindy....what a beautiful place to have a tea party!!!!!! However, I just heard from Peggy and she said something about fish tea....me thinks you need to have a serious talk with her!!!!!! Here is my card.

etsdas 08-18-2009 09:49 AM

I need to get creating. But I just had to read some of these stories first.
Peggy's Cove is a favorite. And I should have plenty of experience with the fishing, since DH and his buddies go out several times a week. I just need to figure out what to commemorate!

Ocean of Fish

schirmcat 08-18-2009 01:03 PM

I am here with the fisherman...will be back later with the Chips Ahoy...

See the Light!

Unfortunately, I think I got lost along the way and found the wrong lighthouse. Oh well, we should have come in our RV to be sure to find a place to stay!
But I could contribute to the fish total...

schirmcat 08-18-2009 02:41 PM

I'm back with the cookies...here is my SECOND submission, woo hoo!

MariLynn 08-18-2009 03:52 PM

Here's my second card too. I'm not the only one who made 2 this week. Kelly and Sabrina did too.

Big fish.

artystamper 08-18-2009 06:15 PM

Well - I've got Pete and his Pirate ship on a course straight for Peggy's Cove - Pete and Peggy have a little 'thing' whenever he comes into port there - so he's more than happy to help catch fish for her - he's got one on board already! http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...0&ppuser=93535

pidgesmom 08-18-2009 07:19 PM

Okay, I think this trip keeps me in the same time zone! Here's my offering for today.

krischir 08-18-2009 08:02 PM

I am running late... and I didn't bring fish. :( I hope you have gathered enough by now!

Here is my card!

TFL!!

lisa lara 08-19-2009 03:52 AM
