Oh I LOVE Autumn! It is my FAVORITE time of the year! The smells of Pumpkin Candles
burning, the decorations going up, pumpkin patches, loving baking again after dreading it in the scorching August Humidity.

I had a few things to finish up crafting that time just was not letting me get too. I finally got to them last night.

First I put a new bow on this wreath I made 3 years ago.

I learned to make the bow at my parents church, they had a bow making day for women during their family vacation bible school.

Then I finished up these two new decorations






I will tell you what. I LOVE to make these and craft them. But they COST a ton compared to buying an already made one at Walmart. But I do love how they look and telling people I made them!

Here is my table, complete with dollar store placemats and candle holders!

And of course that is where I am sitting at right now blogging to you!

Here is my tv stand in the living room

And here is my mantle


And there you have it! lol  I am ready for fall!

Oh I am also trying to set up a Once a Month Cooking Day.

If you have any good recipes, preferably one with out tons of onions, mushrooms or peppers because I am just that picky! Please link me or post. But I need directions on which step to freeze it at! I am just a beginner! Thanks!

Oh I am adding that I am only cooking for 4. But the more the merrier on a dish. My dh is a BIG eater! lol

oh, I also love the fall! it is my favorite time of year!

and I have lots of freezer recipies without onions (or at any rate, purreed for the nutrients and flavor without the weird texture issues), peppers (or again, purreed) or mushrooms. it is very hard to find such recipies, yes? I will be gone until Sunday but I will try to get them posted for you. I have been meaning to anyway, so this is just added incentive.

btw, for how many are you cooking in a meal? that helps to know.
