“Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.”
Romans 12:9-10

“You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the sons of your own people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.”
Leviticus 19:18
Hello dear friends! It seems that weather is always a topic of conversation. We are still experiencing heat and humidity in our Appalachian Foothills of NE Alabama with no end in sight. It is also extremely dry, I can’t even remember for sure the last time it rained. It did thunder on Tuesday and it really got my hopes up, but it was a false alarm. The garden is tired and so am I. But there are still some pretties to show you. My Renaissance Man has been waging war and I will let him share his war stories a little later in the post. Join me for a short walk in our September Garden!
”I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house. So I have spent almost all the daylight hours in the open air.”
-Nathaniel Hawthorne, 10th October 1842
This is one of my favorite views of the garden…standing behind the picket fence in the pasture and watching as the garden takes on its autumn appearance!

“Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses.”
Proverbs 10:12
Happy Tuesday lovely friends. With autumn a couple of weeks away, I thought it would be fun to share five of my most favorite fall tablescapes. Late September through October are perfect times to share a meal outside…in the garden, on the patio, or at the picnic table. I will keep my talking to a minimum, but I hope you enjoy a look back over these tables. You can see the original post by clicking on the highlighted words.
