Sips & Suits Mahjong {September Sets}

One of my favorite things about playing mahjong is seeing everyone’s sets. At this point, the tiles, mats, racks and tablecloths are almost as much fun as the game itself. I love seeing how people put everything together, and our September games brought some especially fun combinations to the table.

I snapped pictures along the way, so rather than let them sit on my camera roll, I thought they deserved their own installment of Sips & Suits.

Peach & Pine

Of course, I have to start with my own. My Peach & Pine tiles from Middle & Main remain one of my favorite sets to pull out. I love the colors and the little Southern details, and they are just so very me. Half the fun is changing up the mat, racks and table linens around them depending on where and with whom I’m playing.

Bright & Happy

One of the prettiest tables I played on this month was a wonderfully curated mix of bright colors. Nothing was overly matchy-matchy, but everything worked together beautifully. This is exactly what I love about a collected mahjong setup. Sometimes the best tables aren’t a complete set purchased all at once, but a combination of things someone loves that somehow all work together.

Taylor Swift Mahjong

This one was just plain fun. The Taylor’s Tiles from Peace Love & Mahjong brought all the color and sparkle to the table, and I loved seeing all of the Taylor-inspired details as we played. Even without being my own set, it was such a fun one to photograph.

Take Me Out to the Mahjong Game

And finally, we played on the cutest baseball-themed table. The tiles were an Amazon find, but the entire setup had been curated around the baseball theme and was so much fun. It is yet another example of how creative you can get with mahjong once you start mixing tiles, mats and accessories.

September gave me four completely different tables and four very good reminders that there is absolutely no reason for mahjong to look the same every time you play. Traditional, colorful, sparkly, themed or completely collected over time, I love seeing everyone’s personality come through on the table.

It’s time for Whit’s second installment of 12 Gifts on the 27th, and just like I did with John three years ago, September is all about laundry. The difference this time around is that I now have two full years of experience sending a boy off to college. When I put John’s laundry gift together… Read More

A Comprehensive Review of Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa

Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa has long been my absolute favorite resort at Walt Disney World and the one our family chooses most often. As Disney’s flagship resort, it manages to feel both wonderfully nostalgic and beautifully luxurious, with its Victorian-inspired architecture, impeccable grounds and unmatched location on Seven Seas Lagoon. And following the… Read More

Disney Cruise Line {Spain Days 10 & 11 at Sea & Traveling Home}

Our last full day aboard the Disney Dream was a sea day as we sailed full steam toward England, and the Atlantic apparently wanted to make sure we remembered it. I have been on A LOT of Disney cruises, and I have to admit that these were some of the roughest seas I had ever… Read More

Disney Cruise Line {Spain Day 9 in Betanzos and A Coruña}

After such a meaningful day in Santiago de Compostela, our next day in Galicia took us somewhere completely different. We spent the day exploring Betanzos, a historic town that I honestly don’t know if I ever would have discovered on my own. And that ended up being exactly what I loved about it. One of… Read More

Disney Cruise Line {Spain Day 8 in Santiago de Compostela}

Every day of this trip had been special in its own way, but this one felt different. We woke up aboard the Disney Dream in Vigo and headed inland through the Galician countryside to Santiago de Compostela.
