Brown and White Transferware Lunch

                                                                      Hello everyone,

                                                 I was home alone at lunch time today
                                                 so I made up a tray to take to the sun room
                                                 to enjoy my lunch.
                                                     The small brown and white transferware
                                                 soup tureen was just the right size to hold
                                                  my sweet potato and apple soup.

I love these old soup bowls.

                                                                  A cup of tea and some gingerbread
                                                                   cake was a good way to finish off
                                                                    my lunch.

I am often asked for the name of this teapot ~

Autumn in Beautiful Quebec

                 Hello everyone,

                      I mentioned earlier that I had more photos that I wanted to

    share from our recent trip to Quebec .

                        The photo above is my husband walking down the sidewalk in 

             a little village on the Isle d' Orleans.

The colorful umbrellas where in Lower Quebec.

I love how they decorate so creatively for every

season. I would love to go back in the summer

next time as we haven't been there in summer

for several years.

      The windowboxes are always enchanting.

More window boxes on the shops.

                                                                  The Hotel Frontenac towers over

the city.

                                                       There are lots of old stone buildings many
                                                       with colorful shutters and roofs.

                                                      On the drive up to Quebec from P.E.I. the
                                                      fall foliage was so pretty and I love all
                                                      the old barns and silos......maybe because I grew
                                                      up on a farm.

                                                           There was lots of color everywhere you
                                                            looked.

                                                    The two photos above were also
                                                               taken on the Isle D' Orleans where
                                                               we spent a few nights.
                                                                    As beautiful as it was in October
                                                               I think it was even more beautiful in
                                                               December so if you would like to
                                                               check out our winter/Christmas trip
                                                               you can check it out here and here.

                                                                  I hope you have a lovely weekend!
