Autumn Entertaining

Hope everyone is enjoying this fall weekend! It has been raining incessantly this entire weekend! We have  been planning to go to Pumpkinville but that trip has to be postponed until the weather clears up. I have spent the weekend baking indoors and making use of the harvested apples from the apple trees in my backyard. Well, you've seen the apple blossoms in my spring post: Apple Blossom Tea Party and now the same trees are loaded with apples. I love fall! The vivid colors all around make you feel like October is having a party!

October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came -
The Chestnuts, Oaks, and Maples,
And leaves of every name.
The Sunshine spread a carpet,
And everything was grand,
Miss Weather led the dancing,
Professor Wind the band.
~George Cooper, "October's Party"

 Bountiful apples take the center stage in my fall tablescape:

 These mercury glass votives mimic the colors of Fall beautifully:


  The amber color of these dessert cups is highlighted against the white Crate and Barrel square plates:
 An apple a day keeps the doctor away:
I love these white flatware caddies:
And these peach colored mother-of-pearl flatware is just perfect for the caddies:
 Apple Crisp with vanilla ice-cream is a perfect dessert for Fall, don't you agree?
The orange burlap runner with a brocade border reflect the colors of the season wonderfully:

The wire cloche houses the yellow mums:
 I couldn't resist adding some bling to the sheer ribbon bow atop the cloche:
