around my neck of the woods...

there's a lion crawling around,

and half a delicious Double Layer Pumpkin Cheesecake

waiting to be eaten.

I know.  How could this be?

I'll thank my amazing dinner guests from last night

for the excuse to make this to-die-for treat, if I do say so myself.

Seriously, it is a treat. 

Move over Pumpkin Pie,

this ones a keeper.

And while I am in the spirit of thanking,

I'd like to give a shoutout to my favorite mail lady.

She is the sweetest, and today she brought to my door

a package that I have been waiting on for over three weeks!

But when you can't read Turkish,

finding out where your package is, is in fact impossible.

Thank you Mail Lady, and

thank you Turkish suppliers for throwing in some extras!

It was very much appreciated after the LONG wait!

You are very kind.

No, not all of this came today, but I thought I might show you the jist,
to get your mind moving in my direction.
I'm not sure if you realize, but in those two plastic bags on the right

 is the glue to put together some serious

treasures.

Only in the perfect fall combinations.

Keep your ears and eyes open.

Tomorrow I'll be introducing a few new treasures,

and sharing

a HUGE deal.

Check back tomorrow!

Happy Monday!
