This week's Teapot Tuesday Challenge is all about apple picking. Seems Annie can pick about 42,000 apples an hour, but she is running into some problems from resentful co-worker/co-apple pickers. Seems one of them is playing dirty. Our mission is to find clues as to what Annie might look like, how she may be picking 42,000 apples, what the "bad apple" might look like, or to just bring some goodies to go with the apples (there were other steps in the mission too - but I have limited space to repeat them here). If you feel lost or believe I have lost my mind, just look at the details in the Challenge section of SCS under Teapot Tuesday.
I have done some spying/research, and I have discovered that Annie is able to pick 42,000 apples an hour because she has a magic potion. I have captured a picture of her using the potion. She is using the green apple potion in this picture, but she has one for every type of apple as they all respond to different forms of magic.
I never could figure out how she keeps landing on her back side during the apple picking but I think it has to do with one of the ingredients in the potion.... there are some strange things in there!
TFL!

Now, I don't know anything about the Tea Party this week and but from the look of Annie's crossed eyes, it seems the potion has done a job on her already. Love your basket of green apples.....but, you do know about green apples, don't you? Don't let Annie eat those things while picking them, especially not 42,000 of them. :(

Hey Nancy! Way to snap a picture of her in action...you know sorta like snapping a cell phone picture when someone is doing something secretive! Very papparazzish! Who'd a thunk it would have been some sort of performance enhancing liquid! Hey, do you think the teapotters can tell the difference between this and the tea! We better go check on them....Yikes!
What a fun card and cute story! I love the beautiful colors, the added bling and those green apples! To die for! Glad to see you here again Nancy! You rock!

Very pretty image Nancy. How I love those green apples. Well, I love the green but the bitter taste...hum, not so much. Anyway, this little girl has found the secret, now if I pay you, can you shut her up until I speak with Bobby, and maybe we can make a deal okay. Shhhh....don't tell anyone now I said so. It'll be between you and me...and Bobby.
I love your basket of apples, your colours just come out the screen. Great to see you at the party Nancy, hugs and snugsxo
