You have heard of spring fever, right? Well, I don't get spring fever....I get Fall Fever! What you see above is the little settee on our cozy, little front porch where I have spent a big part of my day. I can't seem to get my nose out of Autumn books, magazines and Fall cookbooks. What is a girl to do? Ha!~*~
Does Fall Fever ever claim you? Help!!!!

I do the same thing and need to start lounging outside in the backyard for like 20 min a day now that it is down to 70 degrees sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to muster my boo post for 3 or more Tues. :D
It just did!! I have been procrastinating so much on this!! I need you to come up and get me motivated. Help!
ReplyDeleteYou like Gooseberry Patch too!! I love their Christmas books with all the tips and recipes from readers!

ReplyDeleteBless you,
Susan
OH that looks so cozy!
ReplyDeleteI love Fall too. I've been sick in bed all day and I've been looking at all of my Fall magazines. I just wish that I felt better. I want to do so much around here. I did get my fall wreath on my front door. Thats a start!
ReplyDeleteI love your sitting area on the front porch. It looks so peaceful.
Barb, this looks like the perfect spot to have fall fever. I would love to sit there and browse through books. laurie
ReplyDeleteYour settee looks sooo... comfy and inviting. I would love to curl up there with my books and magazines. Don't ya just love this time of year?
ReplyDeleteOh, I love that pumpkin pillow! I love fall too, but it's still hot here in Cali. Have a great day...fall is here....yes...I just wish it would show in our weather. Mumzie :)
ReplyDeleteHi Barb, I think it's very challenging to blend Fall decorations with a pink room!.. but the look you have here WORKS! LOVE your little pillow, and how the burgundy colored leaves tie in with the burgundy shades in your blanket! Everything looks so pretty! What a wonderful spot to relax in! ~tina
ReplyDeleteI'm having Fall Fever, too! All I want to do is bake stuff and then EAT IT!
ReplyDeleteI'm surely going to be the Fat Goose by Christmas. ACK!
Love to you~Rebecca
I have both those books Barb. I feel that the GBP CELEBRATE AUTUMN is perhaps their best. Would loved to have spent the day as you did!
ReplyDeleteAn AFGHAN! Oh boy, do I wish I needed one of those.
ReplyDeleteIt is so bloody hot here - I fear it is never going to feel like Fall.
But my decorations are up even though it feels like August.
I love the Gooseberry Books. I want to try and make everything in them!
Thank you for your little bit of Fall!
How wonderful!!! You have created the perfect spot for falling in love with fall...I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!!!
XOXO

Barb,
ReplyDeleteyou certainly have the touch~ Love the afghan, the cozy wicker, so pretty~ Cindy
Yep! I love fall! Love the warm colors and the coolness of the weather. :)
ReplyDeleteAaah, I could just relax with a pretty afghan like yours. Thank you for sharing with us.
Blessings,
Sandra
Enjoy your special time! You're blessed! :)
ReplyDeleteAs always, your pictures are lovely! I like your "sitting" spot on your front porch. My favorite spot to sit and read is on my backyard swing, but soon it will be too "chilly" to sit there (It wasn't today) Then I move to my enclosed front porch, (but it's not heated so It will only be for a few weeks, but I do enjoy it while I can. By the way, your music is lovely.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Jill
It looks so comfy and cozy! It's hard not to be drawn into. :-)
ReplyDeleteMIzpah,
Li
Looks so cozy I want to come and curl up. To celebrate fall we are taking our grandchildren apple picking on Sat. if it doesen't rain again. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors of Fall and decorating is so nice with all the wonderful candles! I have Gooseberry patch fever right now! I want one of the Autumn cookbooks but haven't ordered one yet! It's on my wish list! Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteSo cozy and autumn looks like it's sitting at your door step.
ReplyDeleteMorning Barb,
ReplyDeleteYou sound like you are doing exactly what I have been doing!!! LOVE your wicker settee and that pumpkin pillow and throw are just FABULOUS! I can't seem to get off my back porch swing. It has been so cool and delightful here compared to the normal HOT. All of my magazines and fall books are out there and I just get lost in them.......♥
Aren't all the new Fall magazines scrumptious? And you've got the perfect place to read them! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHi Barb,
ReplyDeleteI am soooo ready for the fall/winter season, but you wouldn't know it was fall here. It's been pretty hot the last few days....still feels like summer! Ugggg! Please hurry Fall!!!! :-D Have a wonderful relaxing autumn day.
Hugs,
♥Ana
Looks like a nice place to read and sip on something refreshing to drink.
ReplyDeleteI just absolutely LOVE those pillows!
ReplyDeleteOh, and your home is so lovely looking!
Barb darling, please pass some of your autumn fever my way. I am such a spring and summer girl, I can't seem to get into autumn....HELP!!!

What a serene looking spot to relax in, Barb! I, too, have been reading & dreaming of ways to change things for the season.
ReplyDeleteI went to the library & checked out Phyllis Hoffman's beautiful book on tablescapes, Southern Lady Gracious Tables. AWESOME! Then I stopped at Lowes & bought the new Country French magazine. At the grocery store I picked up Paula Deen's special Holiday issue. I am all set so scooch over & I'll join you. :)
Morning Barb!!! TGIF!! Blog time!lol I come alive in Fall so I completely get it!!!! Love that little japanese maple you have in the background with its hints of color!! I too have been looking at fall books/mags! I'm off to Walmart this morning where they finally put out some cute things for fall. HomeGoods disappointed for the first time Sunday! Wish I could curl up on your porch - looks sooo inviting! I was laughing when I re-read your interests/likes - just about everything applies to me too! you sure we aren't sisters???lol I'm off to see or just re-look at what you've been up to this week! Today is going to be around 70 so I am in my glory! Hope I can get something done. Just wanted to say Hi before I begin the day! Take care dear and enjoy!!! Sincerely, Jeannette
ReplyDeleteOh I forgot!!! You are welcome to borrow anything of mine!lol I forgot about that picture!!!lol Thanks - Jeannette
ReplyDeleteIn Vermont, autumn is all around us now. 70 degrees is just a spring time dream at this point. I do like the layers of fall. clothes. colors. yard and estate sales.
ReplyDeleteI love each season that she represents of herself ... she brings such beauty to each. We are now getting hints of autumn ... love your setting. It is cozy warm, snuggly. TY for sharing. Have a wonderful weekend. TTFN~ Marydon
ReplyDeleteOh those pictures are the epitome of coziness. I can see myself snuggled there and reading a book. *sigh* Love it!!
ReplyDeleteBarb darling, I came by to wish you a lovely and sunny weekend.
ReplyDeleteLove & Hugs

Oh, yes I can relate. Especially this past week when it has been gray and rainy most days. We finally got some much needed moisture. I love to curl up on one of our porches with my needlepoint or a good book. Yes, I get fall fever! ~ Sarah
ReplyDeleteI get fall fever also. Fall is my favorite.
