Yesterday was a lazy Sunday at home with Bentley while David was
out on the golf course. Although the weather here in Texas does little to
recognize that Fall has arrived, I am ready for the season to begin.
I started with my breakfast room table and changed out the centerpiece.
I found this apple cider tin at Hobby Lobby. I am holding back on lots
of decorations this year because although I love adding the touches, I
really hate putting everything away. Is this just me, or do you feel that
way too?
When I was in Lake Forest last weekend, I was so impressed with all
the pumpkins and gourds and natural touches of fall. We don't see
much of that here, or at least not here in Victoria. As much as I love
Texas, there are times when I wish I was back home again. That is
especially true at this time of the year. I suppose that I will just have to
start racking up my frequent flier miles so that I can get home more often.
For me, the best way to create a feeling of Fall in my home is to
start in the kitchen. A scented Fall candle, this one is cinnamon/apple,
and a cup of Constant Comment tea sets the mood for me. Oh, and music too.
I have the sound track from the movie Little Women, the version produced
in the 1990's. Every time I put that CD on to play, I immediately think
of apple picking, and brightly colored leaves, and cozy sweaters.
This is what I have for right now. I think I will decorate the front
porch and maybe the back porch too. We'll see how it goes ~ perhaps
I will be able to stick to a more minimalistic approach this year ;-)
Big Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
