It seems that every season that comes along
becomes
becomes
"my favorite time of year".
Autumn is no exception.
It is my favorite time of year!
Brisk weather, falling leaves, and shorter days
inspire me to turn my attention
from my gardens and farm
back into my home.
The Jack-o-lanterns are back in the attic,
but autumn decor remains
to brighten the house for Thanksgiving.
I had to add this little snowman, however....
just as a reminder that Christmas is right around the corner!
And, Christmas is my favorite time of year.
A pumpkin candle helps to give the kitchen
a warm, homey glow....
while a batch of chili cooks in the crockpot.
A mug of hot tea,
and I am ready to settle in for the evening.
A roaring fire beckons me to sit and reflect on the day.
There is no better place, when cold winds blow,
than to sit by a warm fire, with a mug of tea,
or a bowl of hot chili.
Happy Autumn!

Great photos. I love to make chili and corn bread when it is cold out. I usually always make it on the weekend. Yours looks like it's a good batch
Oh Bev, it all looks so warm and comfy. Love the snowman and his little sign. So cute :)

ooh, this is so wonderful! Love your decorations! What chili recipe do you use?
I just returned from a week in Kauai (which was awesome), but am so glad to be back in my stormy, cozy, fall weather :) woolens, tea, and warm meals are just the best ever!
I don't have a recipe, Ann. I just throw together lots of different beans, I cut up a round steak into little bites, add our homegrown stewed tomatoes,onions, and peppers, and lots of peppery spices. I always serve with fresh cilantro and grated sharp cheese on top! Yummy!
well, great base to work from! thanks for sharing :)
(i'm totally envious of your garden bounty! can't wait to get out of the city and have space for a garden myself!)
Hey Bev,
from our home to yours....
Have a Happy & Blessings filled Thanksgiving.
