The October issue of Southern Living is out ya’ll and it is fantastic! OCTOBER!!! My favorite month is only a few days away, and I’m pleased to share with ya’ll some decorating tips right from the pages of Southern Living.

Whether we’re setting an entry with the splendor of fall or shooting a Thanksgiving spread or simply setting a lovely table – a good time is sure to ensue.  This video will give you some tips on gussying up your entry with fall flair and even decorating with pumpkins.

Let’s celebrate the season with its fantastic bounty! From this Farmer to you, happy fall, ya’ll!

New Video: Mint Juleps

So with mint growing wild in the summer garden, why not use it for a drink or two? Mint juleps and mojitos are my go to Southern summer drinks. I love to collect julep cups and relish in the cold silver in my hands on a hot summer day. As for mojitos, well, this south of the border flavor is perfect for a south of the Mason/Dixon line too!

A big shout out of thanks to my friends at Onward Reserve for hosting this Farmer (and outfitting too!!!) for this segment. It sure is handy to have friends whose store has a bar too!

I hope your summertime has been filled with fantastic flavors like mint. It is easy to grow, delicious in salads and the perfect drink all summer long! From this Farmer’s garden and table, enjoy ya’ll!
