Tablescapes, Pink-tober

I’ve been having trouble getting much done these past 2 weeks, so much hurricane stress~

One minute we’re packing up to head north, and then decided to stay on the coast because Irma is going to impact much of north Alabama as well as now edging over to our coast…

Our Orange Beach Publix is closing today at 5pm and when I wrote this yesterday we were now in the cone of the storm force winds.  Yesterday we went to stock up and met evacuees from as far away as Hilton Head, South Carolina, Georgia and Texas

Not much sleep tonight for anyone, and special prayers to my friends and family in Birmingham and all over Alabama…

The news and photos from Texas to Florida and islands beyond are devastating and so hard to comprehend…not to mention the fires in the west and the earthquake in Mexico~

Feeling helpless to do anything for the hurricane victims except donate and pray,  and sit and wait to see what happens here, I decided to do something positive and Think Pink, revisiting my posts that honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month, October

Radishes and Roses were the theme for Going Pink

 

 

 

They marry with lettuce and Swiss chard for an unexpected “edible” arrangement

 

 

And of course, you can’t beat pink pumpkins for October!
