I enjoyed your fall inspired photos and hearing about your cool evenings- those have not arrived here yet but I'm sure they're in our future!! The tart looks really good!
ReplyDeleteOh, isn’t it wonderful!?! I love the twinkling lights as well. And windows open to hear the Canadian Geese flying by.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your tomato tart!
Oh Carla, I always love your joys of little things, like St. Therese. I’m so glad you made a tomato tart, and I loved seeing all your darling Autumn vignettes around your home. I’ll bet it’s so pretty at night with all the lights and candles flowing. I started Fall decorating, but am still waiting on cooler temperatures! Have a beautiful week of more joys. xo
ReplyDeleteOh it has been bliss to have the windows open and fresh air coming in. The tart looks so yummy. Hugs. Kris
ReplyDeleteThat tomato tart looks good and your autumn decorations are so cute! I love that it's starting to feel like autumn now.
ReplyDeleteI love that lighted pumpkin, Carla. Your decorations are so nice, and I love how you put out your favorite items. Those are the best ones. Is that a hunter nutcracker? I found one for Brian years ago because he's a hunter. And that Indian corn with different colors is really neat. That tomato tart looks oh, so good. Have a blessed September week, Carla.
ReplyDeleteI love your decorations! The big pumpkin is so pretty. I can't tell...is there a light in it? Is this a fall nutcracker? I love the cattails. Is the corn real?
ReplyDeleteAll beautiful things! Thank you for sharing your joy with us!
ReplyDeleteThat quiche looks so good! And I bet it taste great with the veggies from your garden. I just decorated for fall. I didn’t put too much out this since I am going to Israel then coming back and having cataract surgery. Have a blessed week!
ReplyDeleteYou are ahead of me, I did put a few pumpkins on the porch! And our AC is definitely still ON.
ReplyDeleteMmm… that tomato tart looks amazing! Wishing you a wonderful week from Sicily.
ReplyDeletegreat collection of things on your Joyful Monday post. I will be super excited when we can turn the air conditioner off. loving your fall..
ReplyDeleteThat tomato tart looks divine. I hope you husband doesn't share his cold with you!
ReplyDeleteYour Fall decorations are so pretty and cozy looking. I don't have a lot of Fall things. Maybe a walk up the road?? It is cooler here this morning but high 80s and 90s are coming back this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI suddenly feel the urge to break out the twinkle lights!! Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your joy lists, Carla, and your decorations are so whimsical and fun. Best time of the year!

ReplyDeleteLooks delicious. I like your decorations. I don't decorate much anymore but Adam and Gabby are into Halloween and it's just unbelievable all the decorations they have.
