Fall Festivals! I LOVE this time of year!

We ran up to Historic Jonesboro this past Saturday, just to do a bit of shopping & landed right in the middle of their Fall Story Telling Festival & town was PACKED! The decorations were beautiful. Fall Scarecrows, colorful mums & pumpkins were on every store step & street corner.

This fellow was kind enough to pose for a pic w/ me.


Last Saturday was the Fall Open House at Rebecca's Thyme in Pigeon Forge and as promised, here are a few more pics of the festivities...

Some of the Fall Displays of Fabulous Prim Handmade Offerings for Customers to choose from.

And the FOOD! Almost too Pretty to eat! But let me tell you...It tastes even better than it looks! Sharon is an Artist with her Holiday Foods! Wow! Take a look at this Witches Hat Cheesball with Fresh Veggies...

Black Cat & Colorful Fall Leaf Cookies...

Yummmmmy Pumpkin Bars. Oh My! These brought a tear to my eye, they were so good!

Rebecca & Sharon busily wrapping up Customers Purchases...

Next weeks Festival...The Clinton Street Festival with Antiques & Goodies of all kinds. I hope to see Barbie & Clay in their Fabulous Primitive Booth again this year! I'll be back with lot's of pics from our day there. Hope the weather is nice!
