I want to make the pie, but where do I find the Harvest Entertaining Set? The pie looks delicious! Thanks for your ideas! Love them and the beautiful pictures!

Gorgeous Lidy! You are so right about the kitchen as the heart of the home. Yours is certainly welcoming with your arrangement in your French Sardine Pot, trencher of pumpkins, grain measure and beautiful linens! Like Rita, I love the pop of red accents from your range knobs. I’m so to share blooms with you and enjoy your flower therapy. Happy Monday <3

Thank you so much Shannon! I hope your week is wonderful, too!
October 19, 2020
Linda, I agree!! I love to add some decor but it’s much more practical if you can lift off the bulk of it in one swoop. Hope you are having a beautiful day!
October 19, 2020
Just beautiful! Liked that you gave a nod to “we eat here so…”. I love my dough bowl in particluar for this reason!
October 19, 2020
Lidy, your kitchen is just beautiful adorned for fall. Your floral arrangement and table vignette is gorgeous! Have a most blessed week, sweet friend!

Love your quail dishes and how you’ve used antiques in your kitchen.
October 19, 2020
I wish you all could, that would be fun! Our virtual visits will have to do for now. Jeanie, I so enjoyed living through you with your post about your wonderful dinner with friends. It’s just beautiful there!

Noreen, they are…they have a long history of preserving sardines in the kitchens of France! I hope you will return this week to meet them and their story.

Everything is so charming and inspiring! Loooove your post!Comment

I love the cozy and warm autumn feel of this, Lidy. It’s elegant and yet casual and the colors work so well. The flowers are fabulous, too. I think anyone would love to sit down for breakfast or a cup of tea right here!
October 19, 2020
so many lovely things to view in your kitchen! The sardine pot sounds very interesting!
October 19, 2020
Jenna, I wish you could join me here for a cup of cider and a treat! {I almost made the Caramel Apple Cream Pie, but knew then I’d eat it all by myself…so no pie. Sorry.} Fall is my favorite season, and while I don’t decorate like I did when our girls were little, a touch of the season is always a good thing, no?
Wishing you a beautiful Monday, Jenna!

I love the deep burgundies and subtle reds you chose for the flowers and the one pop of red pumpkin nestled with the other neutral ones, so perfect for your black and white kitchen Lidy! The pastries make your vignette so welcoming and cozy…and that carmel apple cheesecake pie, oh goodness! Beautiful, casual and oh la la elegant at the same time!
October 19, 2020
Thanks so much for joining me today, Pam, it’s always a treat when you do! Casual elegance is my style, using beautiful antiques but not in a fussy way. Plus we normally have children, little people and all their dogs join our own Bentley here in the weekends! {These days the whole clan mostly gathers outside in the garden, but still!}

Lidy, the antique sardine pot is the perfect container for your beautiful flowers. Your table is laden with gorgeous antiques. I agree with Rita, you do have a flair for casual elegance. The trencher filled with beautiful velvet pumpkins gives all the autumn feels for your lovely table. I would really enjoy a slice of the caramel apple cream pie with my coffee…I do love dessert for breakfast! I love sharing Monday Morning Blooms with all three of you beautiful friends!

I love our Mondays together too! Thank you for visiting my kitchen this morning. xoxo

Happy Monday Rita! The sardine pots are great fun, I love that each one was hand-made {mostly in France and Italy} and has their own personality. We do have a moderate climate, but fortunately where we live we also have a bit of “fall”- not as glorious as yours, but I love it all the same.
October 19, 2020
Thank you for joining me in my kitchen today Linda. Wishing you a lovely day!
October 19, 2020
Thank you so much Bonnie. They are gluten free ginger snaps, no less. : ) The colors of fall are my favorites, and the deep color of the mums. Happy Monday to you!
October 19, 2020
So lovely, Lidy! I must tell you I am hungry and your food is not what this is about but has caught my eye. Are those ginger snaps?
Your autumn kitchen is cozy, elegant, and charming. All the antique pieces add such elegance. Your flowers are perfect in the sardine pot. I love the colors and textures you chose. I look forward to your post on Antique french sardine pots.
October 19, 2020
Absolutely beautiful!
October 19, 2020
You have such a flair for casual elegance. Lidy. I thought at first the sardine pot was a pitcher, but after your description, I noticed and love the thumb grips on either side. Your arrangement is rich in autumn color and I couldn’t help but notice what a beautiful punctuation it makes against the knobs of your stove! I know CA has temperate climate year-round, but I hope you’re enjoying autumn and all its beauty as much as we are here in the eastern US.

The FGH is my “go to” to get amazing antique therapy. Always swoon over your beautiful containers that you use for your ever so gorgeous flower arrangements. Love how the table is sprinkled with more antiques as vessels for such fall pretties. It warms my heart to be able to take a peek/tour of your kitchen. I spy so many beautiful things that you surround yourself with for you and your family to enjoy.
I so love joining you and the the others of Monday Morning Blooms as you all truly speak from the heart and it shows in the beautiful creations you present. Have a great day Lidy!!!
