Saturday Snapshot is hosted by Alyce at At Home with Books. To participate, post a photo that you (or a friend or family member) have taken then leave a direct link to your post in the Mister Linky. Photos can be old or new, and be of any subject as long as they are clean and appropriate for all eyes to see. How much detail you give in the caption is entirely up to you. Please don’t post random photos that you find online.

The long weekend made me lose track of days and I almost forgot it was Saturday! Last week, I spent some time at my mother’s, helping her get the house ready for company. My mom collects coffee cups; she’s got about 3,000 and it felt like twice that many when we were taking them down, washing them and putting them back up on her special shelves. The pictures aren’t great – there’s a lot of glare from the mugs and the mirrors behind them – but you can get an idea what we were up against.

When you’re done looking at the pictures, why not check out my Black Friday Book Bonanza for a chance to win a box of books? It’s better than fighting the crowds at the mall!
