Tea Cups and Pin Dishes

This pin dish shows the front of the Salem Witch House.

Quick post today! I was up early and made potato salad, cole slaw, macaroni salad and dry rubbed 6 racks of ribs. Yesterday I made the bar-b-que sauce. Tomorrow I will smoke the ribs for 5 hours and make strawberry ice cream. I still have to buy the corn on the cob but other than that I am ready!



This dish shows the back of the house. There is a souvenir store there now.

This tea cup was made in Austria for William and Webber and shows the front of the Witch House. Click for a close up.


This is a cute cup. It is shaped like a thimble and has scissors for a handle.


A demitasse cup with the Salem Witch on the front.


Another with a slightly different shape.

I had an idea of African withes, of course that is where I live, but I had no idea that witches was all over the world.
You must have spent a lot of years to collect all those gourgeous withes souvenir!!
