Autumn Mood

AW!!! Autumn is clearly in the air this week...  the temps are behaving and the air  is  spicy sweet...
It  inspires  such a homey feeling  in  us  that we can't help  but  create   an  atmosphere  that  draws   family and friends together  around  a cup of hot cider or tea and a  spicy, sweet confection!
A wonderful way to  capture  an autumn mood is  in viewing this months Autumn Bliss...

Subdue lighting makes me  want to  cosy up on the sofa and listen to something  softly, melodious music  sink into a reverie of  dream of  autumns from the  past.  

The table is set  for  an intimate  supper  with  good friends  
 
The Herdsman,  pattern  from Royal Stafford  is my connection to my  British heraldry...the anglophile in me  longs  to surround myself with  relics  from the Isles..  







One of my favorite  bring backs  from our trip to Ireland  was the beauty of the  meadows and glens  dotted with  sheep...


I really enjoy  utilizing the  battery operated  lit garland on the table  in  fall because there is so much going on the expansive  table the cord  fades in and out  of sight!!
Sitting here at the table  I can gaze into the parlor and see an echo of the  black and white  amid the  fiery colors of autumn..



Other glimpses  of  fire  are  spied  around the room!!


 But, I am most content to while an hour here in the  heart of the home...  where so many  pleasures  with family and friends  have  come to fruition... and memories abound!!!
 It is here  where we  especially  count our blessings  around our family gatherings and  rejoice in the goodness of  Creator and Lord!!!

Farewell

 After  17 years of   blogging  I am  pretty sad to  just fade  out  with  hardly  anyone showing any   farewell,  concern  about my  surger...
