  • A Simple Autumn Tablescape

    Autumn is my favorite season; I love the colors, the weather, and seeing the amazing cycle of nature. Last Friday, my husband and I went apple picking in the Virginia countryside, a few hours from DC. We picked some pink lady apples for my Apple Rose Pie (I’ll post this recipe very soon) and also bought some beautiful pumpkin gourds and huge fall mums, which I trimmed a little and spread in a few mini vases around our dinner table.
