9 of cups is usually portrayed as entitlement, times of plenty, abundance. Here there are lots of cups and even a few doves in an open cage notating possible abundance with serenity mixed in. But then there is the spilled milk or beverage. Even when all is well things can go wrong. The trick is not to focus on what is not right but on all the good, joy, laughter, love, and peace that does surround us in life.
Also I think when times are good as with innkeeper, have a few people over and share a cup with them. Today I will try to be that example and share some of the good times, maybe buy a friend lunch, tell a joke, smile at a stranger, be thankful someone held the door for me. Lots of good things to be grateful for and keep my cups overflowing.
