This year, our Fall Cure is ending after Thanksgiving, but that may be a good thing. Instead of feeling a ton of pressure to finish up last week, you probably did a great deal and had two weekends left to bring it in for a landing on your own. For the fourth year in a row, we escaped with a (growing) group of friends to the west coast of Costa Rica and celebrated Thanksgiving far away from home. But that didn't mean we skimped on cooking or table decoration! Above and below are a few pics of the amazing meal that our group cooked, complete with cranberry and stuffing, as well as the dinner table for 26 that I set each year. I use the amazing leaves and flowers along with things we fly down: IKEA tea lights, a string of holiday lights and watercolor paper for painting place names....

With the end of the Fall Cure in sight we are all taking final stock on the last two months (2 months! Can you believe it?!). This week is all about the steps on celebrating all of our hard work with a party. For some this might be sharing your space with friends online, some might be having the family over for dinner, or others might be spending the night with 50 people and cocktails (of course depending on the number of said cocktails it could appear that there are more than 50 people in attendance.) We'll be celebrating the progress of our Midwestern Curers with a Friday slideshow of their homes. Curers - if you haven't yet uploaded your "after" photos, post them to the Flickr pool this week. Click through for some great party planning links and updates on fellow Fall Curers.... More
