Yankee Magazine....

Do any of you subscribe to Yankee Magazine?  I have a feeling there may be a few of you who do since some of the followers of this blog are in the northeast. 

Yankee Magazine is on my mind because there have been representatives from the magazine on Martha's Vineyard this week!  That's right!  They have been doing a photo shoot at Susan Branch's home!  I suspect this is for publication in next year's December issue, and you can be sure that I will be in line to purchase one, if need be.:-)

I have been a fan of Susan Branch for a number of years.  I was really pleased when I found the following Christmas mugs several years ago.




They are currently displayed on the shelf in the dining room.  I apologize for the lighting.  A cup of hot chocolate certainly has a special flare when served in these mugs!

If you head over to her blog page - Susan Branch.com - you will be able to read about what has happened when members of the Yankee Magazine staff came calling.

The chorus presented our Christmas program yesterday.  The next post will share a couple of things from that program.

Thank you for reading.  I appreciate your comments.

  1. Oh yes, I know "Yankee" and Susan Branch, and that they have come-together for a photo shoot.

  3. Hi Nellie, I just heard of the magazine from SB's blog (which I love). I adore Susan, have several books from back in the 80's, what a lovely lady she is. I want to get this magazine and subscribe. Of course, I am drawn to 'Southern Living' and 'Southern Lady'. ^o^ xo

  4. I love those cups. I have always liked Susan Branch. She lives near here in the summer did you know? When she has her sales in the spring I always say I am going to go and have yet to go.
    I will go check that out.

  9. I always love getting the Christmas mugs out. Hot chocolate and apple cider always seem better in one of the festive mugs!

  10. I have several Christmas mugs, but none of them have such a famous designer! The one I use most of the time is one with Garfield on it, and he's always fun to share a drink with! :-) Susan does have lovely pictures and her work is truly unique, so I'm sure that article in Yankee magazine will be most enjoyable! Looking forward to your report on the chorus!

  12. The mugs are certainly individual and I'm sure that they're special to drink out of! I have a special mug that I use when I need a pick me up. It just makes me feel special ! Look forward to seeing the concert pics. Joan
