Getting my Autumn Act Together!

This morning, I've been taking out Autumn and Halloween decos...organizing everything and planning the decos I want to add this year.  Lord have mercy, I now have just as many Autumn/Halloween/Thanksgiving decos as I do for Christmas so I'm only adding a few new pieces this year--all my decos are taking over the garage.


Love this magazine out on the new stands now by Phyllis Hoffman.  Great photos and ideas to get you excited for the season!

My Doctor told me last week that I should gain 5 lbs.  Well my land, I've certainly never been told that!  Since I've been on the "Clean Living" diet during the summer, I lost about 10-12 lbs and for my frame and height, that's probably a bit much.  Okay.  Working on that weight gain today with a scone and some of  my Apple Butter.

LOVE this apple butter for a spread on scones, biscuits, or toast.

Miss Janice's Etiquette Tip:  Remember that jellies or creams should spooned onto the plate not onto the scone.  Then use a spreader and add the jelly to only the portion of scone that you are putting into your mouth.

  You can find the recipe for "Miss Janice's Apple Butter" here.

I'm sippin' some Apple Cinnamon tea from Harney Tea...the perfect flavor to enjoy with my scone and apple butter treat!


Don't y'all just love Autumn?  When I'm done inside the house, I'm gonna plant some Autumn flowers in the garden area.  Y'all have a great day!

Inspiration for Autumn

I've done all the organizing I can possibly do around the house. Today, I sat down at my desk and brought out all my Autumn magazines...the new ones and those from previous seasons.
Love the inspiration from Southern Living and all the Hoffman Media publications!
Of course, I still like to look back at cute stuff I didn't have the chance to do in the years gone by...
Getting together some ideas for gift & treat packaging, decorating, and entertaining!
A little pumpkin pie for energy...
And...my new favorite Autumn coffee "Pumpkin Pecan Pie" coffee from Cracker Barrel. They are offering these little one-pot packs in various Autumn flavors. I divide the package into three servings, which will brew two cups each...just enough for moi! {I don't want to waste this special coffee...in fact, yesterday, I was hitting up all the local Cracker Barrels buying up these little packages --they are great for a quick hostess gift package!}
Pumpkin Pecan Pie coffee...yum yum y'all!
Thank you for stopping by today! Hope y'all have a fantastic week.
