....

....
a trip to trader joes last night
lead to a burst of fall inspiration
i came home with...
a crate of autumn flamed peaches
{melting over the crate}
mums to line the front stairs
colorful gourds to fill baskets
`
reading this book
{oh the dresses}
looking through my photos over the years
i am coming to realize i love photographing dresses
that is a pleasant surprise
although you might have already known this
wink
`
just placing a few things here to brighten the rainy days

That book is on my list to read. Love TJ's - I also brought home flowers the other day. Love. Have a gorgeous day, sweet friend! xxoo :)

Sixpence and A Blue Moon said...

I love the colors - the photographs have a far away look that appeals very much to me. Fall is such a beautiful time of year, yet I always feel a little uneasy this time of year. Your photos are beautiful! xOx

Caroline said...

Oh my gosh...how beautiful. Love the first photo...yep, fall is in the air! xo

Oliag said...

Thank you so much for starting my day off with this beauty! Your fall inspiration is now my fall inspiration:) I am heading to TJ's today but I would never feel comfortable taking photos there:(

Christina said...

Oliag* No, me neither. Just buy what you love, and then photograph it at home, like I did. ; ) xo

Marilyn said...

Now this book is on my Wish List. When I came here this morning the colors made my heart just jump for joy. How beautiful to visit you this morning and to celebrate autumn.

Jakki said...

I am SO starting to love fall...a very rich time of year.

Candace said...

Those are perfect fall photos! Our falls aren't quite the same here in AZ, sadly, but it does start the best time of year.

linda said...

I missed the first day of autumn here at home, but celebrated in Orlando in 90+ degree weather. On the way home from the airport, seeing all the pumpkins and mums made me want to redecorate. Saturday is the day!!

Tiffany said...

Beautiful images, as always :)
Thank you for sharing them with us. xo

Just discovered your website recently, I am healing complex PTSD so have to check out mostly psychological support sites. This site is a joy and a breath of fresh air, thanks! Also it makes me appreciate food which I have had a difficult relationship with.

This sets my soul on fire!

Becca said...

Thank you for this fall inspiration! I don't think summer wants to leave Las Vegas! It's the 1st of October and we're having a BBQ!

Lori said...

Fall is an absolutely wonderful time! Yum, the peaches look delicious!

Relyn said...

Guess what book I'm rushing off to order?

susanna said...

Gorgeous photographs, Christina! Mmm...I want one of those peaches! I have a couple bags of them frozen in the freezer right now and I thought earlier this evening that it might be nice to make a peach crumble. Or maybe a plum tatine...

That book looks good, too. I'm going to write it down and look it up at the library.
