Hello there!  Welcome to Farmhouse Friday 466. 

Can you believe it’s the middle of November?  Where did the year go? 

Do you have your Thanksgiving recipes procured?  We stick to the same ol’ faves around here, but this year, I’m serving something different.  You might not think it’s the best time to try something new, but if you’re amongst family, I think it’s the perfect time!  Hopefully, the honesty and judgement come from a place of love.  😉

Instead of baking a cherry pie, I’m going with a cherry dump cake.  It won’t be as pretty as my handmade, beautifully decorated leafy crust, but it will taste delicious.  Last time I made it, I followed the recipe by Organized Island (plus 1 extra can of cherries and pecans on top), then added 1/4 tsp. almond extract to each can of cherries.  If you love almond flavoring, I promise, you will never make it the old way again.

The Best Fall Fruit Salad Ever!

I might even add a recipe I haven’t made in a while.  It’s a fall fruit salad that combines maple syrup, cinnamon, and orange flavors.  If you’d like to try it, click here for the recipe.  Just be prepared to make extra and share the recipe. 

WEEKLY THEME – Since we’re chatting recipes.  Post your favorite THANKSGIVING SIDE DISH for a chance to be featured!  Yum!

FARMHOUSE FRIDAY 466

Do you want to create a table that is beautiful, simple, and inviting?  Then check out this table from Cecilia at My Thrift Store Addiction.  Her vintage charm brings everything and everyone together.  So pretty!  

Can you ever go wrong with the colors of nature for Thanksgiving?  Heck no!  Just look at the lushness of the centerpiece and the uniqueness of the layered plates.  Everything is so classic.  Thank you, MaryJo, for sharing it with us.  You can see the entire table at Masterpieces of My Life.  Just lovely.

Steph Creates Things has a knack for explaining exactly how to go about recreating her ideas.  Pop over to see how she did it and customize it to your liking.  Just look at those adorable squirrels.  So fun.

Just imagine walking in for Thanksgiving and seeing this stunning centerpiece.  I bet Debra from Common Ground got several oohh’s and aahh’s.  Stop by her blog to see the rest of her tour.  You’ll want to pin all the things!

If knockout texture is what you’re wanting, this is a must-do!  I feel one could stare at Michelle’s centerpiece for 10 minutes and not see all of the unique pieces tucked inside.  Analyze it at Thistle Key Lane.  You won’t regret it!
