I am checking off a few items off the Autumn Bucket List

The Autumn Candle

It should come as no surprise to anyone who knows me that I have a stash of candles and most of them are autumn scents.

However lighting a candle by itself is a little boring.

When I was at Wal-mart I found this little goodie (thanks to an instagram post)

For a mere $14.94 You can have this beauty.   It holds on of the large 3 wick candles from Bath & Body Works

But I figured it was good for Halloween, Autumn and Christmas pending a little decoration.

I used some glue dots to hold an autumn leaf to the roof to make it “autumn”

See how roomy it is

All lit.   This little table was a handmade table that my Uncle made for his Mother (my Grandmother).   He died in WW2 at the young age of 21.    My Mom used this table and did not use coasters so there are rings on the finish.  One day I will sand and refinish it.   It is the perfect little table (and it hold my gooseberry patch cookbooks).

All cozy and Autumn like!

 

Lovely side view of both the house and the rings on the table.  LOL

Pumpkin Bread

I made pumpkin bread this morning.  I bought this mix as Sam’s club.

I prefer the Libby brand but this brand is easy peasy and you can also make cookies and pancakes.  I might try the cookies.

For variety I added some of the new Maple flavored morsels from Toll House.

Yummy chips in yummy batter.

 

I decided to use my new Rae Dunn platter.   I guess I have started to collect these things.  Ugh, I may be sorry.  However I am not having a lot of luck in my search for Halloween items.

It came out moist and yummy with a hint of maple.

Nothing as good as moist yummy pumpkin bread in autumn.

and finally a quick post on something that was NOT on the autumn list an Iphone wallpaper.

I never, ever thought about changing the wallpaper on my phone  I added this cutie to my iphone.
