Summer Sendoff

August 15th, halfway through
the month and I am all ready
dreaming of Autumn wardrobes
Crock~pot meals and hot cocoa!
Although August is traditionally a hot
month here in Texas, we have had
an unusually mild one this year
with many mornings actually 
suitable for outdoor dining.
So this week, 
we begin our fond farewell to summer,
celebrating life out doors
as it is meant to be!

One last lemonade anyone?

Nothing says summer in the South like
a porch surrounded by Hydrangea's.

Possibly the cutest "to go" salad I have ever run across!

Chopped Salad in a Cup. Great for summer picnics! I would def. reverse the fork so that the handle is sticking out!

Need to clean your garden before the first frost,
make it a festive outing.

Time to garden!

Celebrate summer's end with a few new items
for your table like our vintage juice glasses, 
woven placemats, studded napkin rings and
colorful napkins, all available at
