Hello Kindred Spirits....
Are you deep in thought about your Thanksgiving planning?
I feel organized this year and am loving preparing our home
for the holidays...deep cleaning, changing up the décor a bit,
and planning the dinner!
We have actually been enjoying rather cold temps this week....
down in the 40's and rainy!
Perfect for November don't you think?
I have chicken noodle soup on the stove and am going
to start transforming the formal dining room.....
and sip on a cup of Chai Tea while doing so.....

I think mixing and matching items bring such interest
rather than matching all your pieces....
