Hello! Our week has started out with lots of time in the kitchen. Emily's Faith Keeper's group is working on their cake decorating badge. Last night, Emily baked and frosted a lemon cake all by herself.
At the class all the girls learned different icing techniques, including how to make royal icing flowers.
My brother-in-law's girlfriend arrived Sunday night and we are having Mrs. H's Country Ribs, mashed potatoes, corn, salad, and Choco-Hoto-Pots for dinner.
I've been using my Autumn tea tray as a centerpiece. Here's a sneak peak at my new teapot and cups. I'll share more pictures soon!

What a lovely tablescape, as Sandra Lee says on the Food Network!!
I had never heard of "Faith Keepers" clubs before... what a fantastic idea! I am going to send the link onto my friend who has a 5 year old!
That tea pot is beautiful! Who makes it? Looks really old :)
Love you blog,
Laura
It all looks great....tell her she did a great job on her cake. :-)
Love the teapot set and the cake looks delish! Just wondering where you store all of your decorations/tea sets/etc. when not in use? I'd love to collect more, but don't have the room in my cupboards to store them : (
Hi Kelli!
Emily's cake is beautiful! She should be proud! I love your Autumn tea tray. You have me hooked on "Constant Comment." I tried it last fall after reading about it on your blog. It is my favorite tea flavor. Enjoy your week.
God Bless,
Hillary
Hi Kelli
I love your Fall table setting - so elegant. I wish I could visit for that scrummy meal or just a cup of tea. Delicious! Oh, and the cake looks wonderful too! Well done Emily!
Cheers - Joolz
Hi Emily! Your cake is beautiful. Did you have fun making it? Lemon is one of my favorite cakes. Wish I could have a piece of yours.
Tell your mom I love her tablecloth with the leaves. Keep us posted on other things you are doing to earn badges. I would love to know.
Love to you and your mom, Debbi
Dear Kelli,
Please congratulate Emily on that beautiful cake - clearly, she takes after her talented mum! I love the beautiful tea tray too - and am so glad that you are continuing to post a little, as autumn would not have been the same without your inspiring blog.
Thanks and God bless,
Eliza

Nice table setting and that cake looks delish. Thanks for sharing.
And I bet that cake tastes as good as it looks!!! Wish I could have a chunk of it right now!
Kelli I love the tea set! I want to know where you got it too.
What great teaching! I love the beautiful teapot and cups as well!

Hi Kelli :) I love your autumn tea tray/set. So, so pretty! Love & hugs, Q
Ooh I love the teapot and cups. So pretty as a centerpiece. The cake is wonderful too!
beautiful cake & beautiful fall table! i recently just discovered your blog & i have been so inspired by reading it to start holiday baking traditions. i also love the victorian era, little house on the praire books & fairy gardens. i am charmed!
I love the tea pot centerpiece! It's absolutely beautiful. Emily did a great job of decorating her cake. It looked yummy! :) How long has she been part of Faith Keepers? One of my friends has a daughter involved in it. Just thinking about my daughter joining...
Well, if it was the first time she did it all by herself, I have only one word to say: BRAVO!!
Kelli,
What a great idea for a centerpiece! It truly is a work of art and the dinner sounded yummy too.
Hugs, Gretchen
Your tablesetting is beautiful!
Great icing job Emily - it looks good enough to eat! I love your new tea set Kelli! there was a green bunny set at our goodwill recently that caught my eye but I couldn't figure out where to put it and by the time I circled around to get it anyway, it was gone! So sad. I should remember to put the 'maybe's' in my cart and re-shelf them if I decide against it! I love brown transfer ware and anything to do with tea! Have a cup for me!
So lovely, Kellie!
love your post. awesome tea set.
I hope to come back tomorrow and post into SnT Fri...hope I remember.
Blessings, DeniseMarie-Bloomin'
