We had dinner on the porch tonight. The showdows are lengthening, the sun was going down. There is a bit of Fall chill in the air.
Today's Lagniappe: Brandy Alexander
The perfect drink to enjoy as the evening turns to night.
1 oz. Brandy
1/2 oz. Brown Creme de Cacao
2 oz. Cream
Combine in a shaker with ice. Shake well and strain into a cocktail glass Top with Nutmeg.

Great post! I’m looking forward to reading more of your work.
The Spode dishes are gorgeous!
Having dinner out on the terrace is my favorite spot and the weather is getting to the point where it will be enjoyable again. Love this time of year! I was out of town much of the week so just now getting by to visit the TT posts. Thanks for sharing your dinner table. ~ Sarah

Lovely fall table. Don’t you just love this time of year? Back from our nightly wall, and it’s crisp outside, and someone was burning leaves.
