I’m just about outta here for the Thanksgiving (US) holiday, but before I head off to start baking pumpkin pie and apple crisp (yep, two desserts this year…mmm!), I want to wish all of you a Happy Thanksgiving, filled with good times and plenty of fantastic food. And safe travels to those of you who are heading to far (or not so) far off destinations over the holiday.

I have a Weekly Wrap post scheduled for Friday, and I hope it gives you much inspiration for upcoming holiday gift wrapping. Have a happy holiday, a great weekend, and I’ll see you back here on Monday!

The beautiful velvet dahlia arrangement and custom-dyed pom pom branch crafts are two of my favorite ideas from the November issue of Martha Stewart Living. The photo by Maria Robledo is so lovely.
