    You have helped me to admit that autumn is here Jackie. I am slow in letting go of summer but your post brings out all the best of the cooler temps. Just lovely. XO

    OK, you win . . . I am officially distracted.
    Yours is my "post of the day!"
    What beautiful, tempting photographs.
    (Anyway, I've got this thing for redheads.)

    Gorgeous images Jackie.....today definitely felt very autumnal didn't it!! I love it, my winter boots are out of the wardrobe and not going back in now!!!

    So funny that your husband was at Borough Market the same time as me!!! There were an awful lot of handsome men there - managed to drag myself away from the delicious food long enough to notice that!! - he was obviously one of them :) I love it there....the selection of food is amazing and it's just so "London". The best of London.

    Hope you & your family - and that gorgeous little grandson of yours - are all well xxxx

    If you wanted some decent candlesticks, all you needed to do was ask...

    hi Jackie - How I love that red hair. I so wanted my children to have auburn hair, I thought it was a realistic prospect because my mother does but alas it was not to be.

    Enjoy autumn. My favourite favourite season.

    Hope you are well xoxo

    Well Jackie, you did it again! I was thinking how sweet and lovely the black ribbon looked with the red hair. Then I get to the thermal photo, you're going to give me a heart attack someday!

    Gorgeous pics Jackie :) And I think it's the candlelight I miss most in spring and summer. Still, I'm looking forward to a bit of warmth...it's been a long winter here.

    Hello Jackie

    What a heart warming post. I adore the ruffled dress and bike. Can I come over and live at your house for a month?

    LOL, I like the frothy undies rather than thermals. Summer is on its way where I live, thermals get to stay in the cupboards for a few months . . yay !

    Now those are my kind of thermals ~ the first ones of course!! It is indeed a time for comfort food and cozy beds ~ love those pillowcases ~ of course I have a weakness for ruffles. xo

    I can only imagine how beautiful it is over there in the Fall Jackie! Someday....
    In the meantime I am enjoying the beautiful images I always find when I come to visit you.
    hmmmmm...my thermals don't look like that...where did you say you bought your frilly ones??????

    I can wait to light every candle in the house and have a fire burning in the fireplace.
    This post is just dreamy my friend!
    hugs from here...

    Hi jackie,

    You always find the most beautiful images! We will need those stylish thermals. They say it's going to be a long cold winter. Just bought some fur lined boots. Hope they get my feet through :-)!

    Happy day,

    Love the first thermals! Cute but I don't think they will keep you too warm! The soup and bread looks wonderful! That really is comfort food! I love fall, but dread the snow that comes after! Ugh!

    You've captured the moodiness of Autumn so well... I now feel as if I should be in a country manor, cooking up a warming soup, whilst trouncing around in my frilled up fall gown (with frilled up 'thermals underneath of course).
    Lovely as lovely can be...

    Hello Jackie:
    Gosh, we are very late to your Autumn party as for some inexplicable reason we seem to have missed this most mellow of posts.

    Such beguiling images, laced, as usual, with your own beautifully individual sense of the quirky, the absurd and the humorous. Oh, how we should love to light our way to bed with a battalion of candles, but then we should need an army of servants to snuff them out. Much more realistic is the digging out of the thermals. After all, Siberia is just down the road from here!!
