~~~For Dessert,
I don't have a picture, but would like to share a recipe that I tried over the summer for one of our gatherings. Everyone loved it, and would be perfect for the dinner above.
It is very simple and very quick, ...and very tasty!
Apple Cobbler
2 cans apple pie filling
1 box yellow cake mix
2 cups pecans, chopped
1 stick butter, sliced thinly
Grease a baking dish and pour 2 cans of apple pie filling in it. Top with yellow cake mix and nuts. Thinly slice butter and lay on top. Bake at 325 for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

~Enjoy!

Beautiful!! What a gift you have!
Thanks for sharing!
Many blessings!
What a GORGEOUS table setting!! You did a great job. I LOVE that dessert...you can't mess it up!!!
You always set the most beautiful table!! I am so glad you put the info in- I was dying to know where the candlesticks came from. Then I think I remembered that from a post awhile back. The dishes are beautiful! I may have to look those up on ebay!!
Heather:)
Simply elegant. Love the soft colors. Beautiful job ...oh and beautiful plates too!
What a gourgous tablescape!! The food must have tasted a 100 times better served on this beautiful table.
The table setting is delightful with so much to look at. I copied the recipe, and it's your fault I'm fat. (I had to blame someone!)
What a beautiful and welcoming table. I love the recipe you've given us for a cobbler. I hope you are having a wonderful day.
Your table is beautiful. I love the napkins and cute butterfly napkin rings. I make a lot of apple crisp but have never used cake mix. I always use pecans just as you do. Let's hope there is lots of fall weather for our favorite apple recipes. Thanks for sharing this one. Have a wonderful weekend! Come visit me and my Julia Child dinner post.
After taking the whole summer off from blogging...I'm ready for the seasons change. This beautiful fall tablescape puts me in the mood for the autumnal colors. Along with apple cobble with a large dollop of ice cream of course.
I hope you can stop by for a visit...I'd enjoy the company.
Sweet wishes,
Sara
Lovely, lovely, lovely table! Beautiful fall mood and apple cobbler w/ ice cream! What could be better?
Sarah

HEY...You are BACK...I sure Missed YOU!!!
Love your tablescape! Just lovely!!
If you add the "'follower" gadget..I would have known that you were back to blogging as your new post would be on my dashboard.
Can't wait to see what you have been doing.
Happy weekend!
Warmly,
Deb :)
As always, another beautiful post from your neck of the woods... your home is always so warm and welcoming and I truly love seeing your treasures and the wonderful ways you enjoy them!
I'm just now slowly getting back into my blogging routine, too ... from the looks of things, I believe that alot of folks took some blogging breaks this Summer, whether intended or not ... anyway, I'm hopeful that I'll be able to "keep up" and get back to enjoying everyone's posts and photos ...
I've missed you alot and have had you on my mind ... you've always remained in my heart 'n prayers ♥ ... it's my hope that you're doing well, and I'm looking forward to catching up more!
~hugs~
