Harvest delights...
Yes, you may have guessed it, it was this little metal up-side-down cup that was introduced to the oriental corners of the Swenglish Home on my return from Turkey last week.
I can assure you that it was with some pizazz that the man in the house, a k a self-proclaimed gardener, strolled down the garden path the other day with a wheelbarrow full of "ugly" pumpkins. "The uglier the better", says mentioned gardener, but I think they are rather gorgeous and certainly do not want to encourage them to turn orange - these speckled green babies are perfect like this!
Decorative cabbage - definitely an autumn favourite...
Mixing old and new, rough and smooth...
Is it just me, or isn't there something particularly cheeky about this little yellow fellow?
In a sort of "I'm the king of the castle, you're the...etc" -way?
Not a fan of mixing too many colours? Never put yellow with purple and pink? Yes, I am on your side, but sometimes when autumn wraps its darker, gloomier arms around me, I tend to allow myself the odd no-rule colour fiesta...

What I used my little tassled souvenir for? A piece of Turkish delight, of course!
Afiyet olsun! (Turkish for "bon appétit".)
