~A Shells and Blooms Thanksgiving~

Ahh....Thanksgiving.....a time to gather with family and friends and feast! Who couldn't love such a holiday?!

I just wanted to share my new table decor this year

...my new set of black plates with pretty red flowers...and... they

were only $3.99 each  :)  I made the napkins from some holiday fabric I picked up at the craft store.

...some candles and flowers scattered about the table...and a small framed print I picked up last year at a yard sale for $.25

..I made a nice vibrant red centerpiece with some crystal and pearl picks throughout..

and last...but certainly not least....My Dessert!!....Which was absolutely awesome!!

2. Combine the cake mix, pumpkin, water, oil, eggs,  in a large mixing bowl; pour into the prepared dish.
3. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack. Cut the cake into 1-inch cubes.
