They make your porch look so cool and inviting. A cup of coffee and an early morning chat before the heat sets in sounds like the perfect way to start they day. <br />Your house, inside and out, looks lovely with all the fall decorations and I think the pumpkins are just a little late making an appearance in the stores this year.<br />Stay cool, we're in for another couple days of hi temps.

We definitely don't want you collapsing into an exhausted puddle, just when we've been popping the champagne corks to celebrate your return! <br /><br />It was such a treat visiting you on the front patio/porch today. Always one of my favourite places, it's looking so pretty in all its autumnal decor. <br /><br />And your real pumpkin is beautiful. Don't try to persuade us you aren't "crafty" anymore. We aren't. <br /><br />Mele's happy greeting made my day! She is such a gorgeous little girl and so cuddly and soft with all that beautiful fur. Please give her an additional treat and say it was from me!<br /><br />Your wicker furniture, red postbox, footstool and bright floral cushions shout "welcome"! I could sit there all day, chatting and drinking coffee, but you would throw me out! <br /><br />Your plants are always so lush and it really feels like being in a cosy corner of a conservatory or greenhouse. Very peaceful and soothing to the soul!<br /><br />Huge hug, Des xxx<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9081468613531112998.post-64718833294545547052014-10-02T03:58:16.871-07:002014-10-02T03:58:16.871-07:00We have all kinds of pumpkins here, all around the...We have all kinds of pumpkins here, all around the countryside, for sale at country side stands, at the stores , etc. Certainly no drought up here - ah, a nice surprise to see another post . I think your porch looks quite lovely, cozy and very inviting - I want to be one of those neighbours dropping by for coffee. Now, I have just read mary@mydogsmygrardenandmary and she mentioned a "Trader Joes". I found a little heavy cotton shopping bag one day and it had "Trader Joes" on it. Is this really a place. Can you tell me anything about it?

Wish I was there with you having a cup of coffee and talking away.<br />Today I brought out 6 plastic tubs of fall decorations and put them on the front porch and there they sit.<br />Will have to get cracking as it's going to be to darn hot to do much.<br />Glad to see that you are posting again.<br />I found lots of pumpkins at Trader Joe's and they were only $2.98 and they had a lot at Wal-Mart but were $4.98. Try those stores.<br />Looks really good Mona.
