Hello Friends! Today I’m sharing with you a NEW book my friend Melissa wrote with KariAnne Wood, But Where Do I Put the Couch? You can buy the book today!
I’m also sharing a delicious apple crisp recipe, Apple Goody Dessert. This is my go-to apple dessert recipe, especially for fall, when there is an abundance of apples.
Apple Goody Dessert
It’s just a perfect homestyle comfort dessert that’s an easy dessert to make for an autumn dinner. Serve with fresh whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
This book is beautiful, full of pictures and tips and a little bit of humor. Buy it, HERE.

Also, enjoy this simple Apple Goody Dessert recipe, a not-too-sweet fall dessert that everyone loves!
Start with your favorite apples (we used Golden Delicious because this recipe is inspired by our friend’s apple tree). Then add the usual “crisp” ingredients.
Cardamom makes everything taste better! It’s citrusy, minty, and spicy, and it’s one of my favorite fall spices!
How to set the table
I get asked all the time, how do you set a simple table for guests?
It’s easy, and fall is one of my favorite seasons for getting an invitation on the calendar.

3 easy tips to setting a fall table
Also just in time for fall, here are 3 simple tips for table decorating:
- Use flowers in season. Look around and gather the plants in season (mums, fall leaves). Right now at the Farmer’s Market you can buy fresh lavender.
- Use your everyday dishes, silverware, and waterglasses. I love to keep a table cloth ironed, hanging in the hall closet, and a set of ironed cloth napkins ready. But of course, paper napkins work just fine, too.
- Where will you eat? Set the table early, tablecloth or not, as it gives you a BOOST to know the table is ready. Just focus on the meal and getting organized before your guests arrive.
Fall is the perfect time to host an “early” outdoor dinner party! Nothing on this table is brand new!
Set a fall table
- Tablecloth – Target (a year ago)
- Dinner Plate Reactive Glaze – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia AFFLINK >> HERE for set of 4
- Chargers (I bought at a yard sale about 10 years ago)
- Cloth napkins – World Market (clearance)
- Flowers – Mums on the deck! Plus a small bouquet of yummy smelling lavender from the Bend Farmer’s Market
Elegant and beautiful.
Warm fall dessert
Another TIP: I love to have dessert reaady to pop into the oven when the guests arrive. If you make this recipe ahead, you can bake it right as you sit down for dinner. This way the dessert is warm when it comes time for serving.
