Last night was the first cool Fall night.
I made a fire in my fire pit. Now it is time to make some marshmallows. Homemade marshmallows are the best.

A scrimshaw Salem Witch box.
A child's sterling witch spoon.
Long before WWII, swastikas were a sign of friendship and peace in many cultures. After Hitler chose the symbol to represent the Nazis, it became a hated sign. Swastikas show up on many pottery and porcelain pieces from the 1800's. This is a saucer to a fortune telling tea cup by Royal Doulton.
The tea cup has many symbols each of which is used to tell your fortune.
Behold thy fortune
Shewn to thee
By occult powers
& magic tea
Another tea cup saucer with a yin and yang in the center.
Once again, many symbols in the cup.
These were made by Cannonsburg Pottery
It has an ancient Chinese fortuneteller on the front.
This cup is made by Aynsley. It is called ' The Nelros Cup of Fortune'.
It has an anchor in the middle of the cup.
Would'st learn they future
with thy tea
this magic cup
will show it thee
This pitcher depicts a witch next to her cauldron.
She is stoking the coals.
On the back you see people spying on her.

Great pics, as always. I did not know the info about the swastika, that was amazing! Learn something new every day.
As I say every time I post in some fashion, you have such amazing things!
Last year our first frost is right around the 8th of October.
