    This fall I am all about the quick and easy . . . no fuss, no muss . . . Mama don't have time for anything complicated . . . kind of decorating.

    But, I still want it to look good.

    You know, for all those thousands of visitors who will eat dinner at my kitchen table this fall.

    Get it? Lunchbox + apples = back to school.

    I have a feeling the plaid Thermos may just be staying around here for the holidays too.

    Just a few simple changes later and it's a totally different look.

    So if you want to join me in my no fuss, no muss decorating style this year, just add a few key fall elements, like acorns, pumpkins or Indian corn, to what you already have on your table and you're good to go.

    Hey, there's no need to make this harder than it is.

      Yup. That plaid thermos is going to be around for awhile. It's going to be perfect (like it was last year) for Christmas too. Nice change-out.

      Who uses their dining room table for dining? Mine is just another place for decorating. That's why I got such a huge table!
