I brought in some black teas and my Fire King peach lustre teacups and saucers.
My co-workers brought orange and black-themed treats.
Our mini jack-o-lanterns.
Last weekend was "Scarecrow Saturday" in downtown Dundas. This is an annual competition where local merchants create scarecrow displays that reflect their store or Halloween themes.

I really like the bakery scarecrow. So cute and creative!
ReplyDeleteSuch fun to have a scarecrow contest amongst the businesses.
ReplyDeleteI am admiring the peach lustre teacups Margie and I'm sure the October tea was a success like the others.
Margie, I have always liked the lustre ware and the peach is especially pretty! The guard at Buckingham Palace is my favourite too. Very cute! I'm sure all enjoyed the October tea. Thanks for sharing and joining me for my new party. Hope you have a wonderful first week of November too.

You have a lot of fun at your office! The orange lustre ware takes me back - I think my mother had a few pieces of it. The scarecrows are delightful, not too scary to me, and I hope much scarier to crows!
ReplyDeleteOh what a fun place to work! and what creative scarecrows- love the Buckingham palace guard - too funny!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great contest with the businesses ... love all the scarecrows and the creative minds that highlight the business! I'll have to remember this for next year ;)
