Ad-Free Blog Fall Touches...I looked around the kitchen this morning and it was clean for a change. Yesterday I scampered about the yard, battening down the hatches because of a wind/storm threat and snapped off a bunch of flowers just in case they got wiped out.  A little of this and that, as I've said before our summer was so hot and the flowers were stunted and now are exploding everywhere, just in time for the frost. The arrangement echos all the colors in my fruit thrift store tablecloth. Nice and wide and long for our large table and only $2.99 never washed tag still on it. |
| Behind the table in the corner is the hutch. I only added my few hydrangea blossoms to dry. I haven't located any major fall decor---as our basement is still in plumbing alteration mode. ---meaning I can't find anything. |

My container is an old porcelain tea canister I found this summer. It has transfers on all four sides...and in my favorite blue and white.

My cookbook counter has a coordinating??? tablecloth in soft fall tones. We had a frost warning last weekend, so I brought in the plants I winter in the house over the weekend.

My Rex begonia I thought was dead---but revived in the cooler days. It also has an annual impatiens and a grass. We will see what makes it.

We love naturals, and here are some gourds and mini pumpkins. Some from my plants fostered and a few E planted in her backyard. Funny my gourd plants did nothing here and she had tons of gourds---all different kinds.

The Mandilla is on the end in full bloom---and twining away...Happiness is Homemade sign---only new thing I purchased for Fall---at 70% off. Honestly the seasons are so rushed in the stores now...it's crazy. Life is flying by enough, already.

We had many a gathering here with family this year. We are having Thanksgiving this year, but not much else.
 |
| oldnewgreenredo I love sunflowers...and pulled out a faux bush, now that they are done in the yard. |

The sink is seldom empty, and here is the basil I need to process for the refrigerator and freezer. I need to buy garlic, olive oil and pine nuts to make pesto, this afternoon.
I still have to dry a huge crop of Sage and Majoram. Also, bring in the Thyme and Parsley plants.

The busiest place in the kitchen is our coffee station....pumpkin spice is always nice!
Staples, actually some need filling...

The workaholic in the kitchen the toaster/convection oven. Use this constantly for two people...it's perfect. Plus throws off less heat in the summer. Now we turn the stove oven on for dinner and taking the chill off.

I haven't done anything above the stove, yet. I still have some heirlooms that are inaccessible at the moment planned for this shelf!
Almost everything is inherited or thrifted in our home.
I love the hunt and let's face it, old stuff was made to last!

Last bit of clean counter---more staples...in our family antique blue jars. My mom-in-law's Kitchen Aide. Love it, except it is so HEAVY! My old mixer went to my kids.
