Pumpkin Pie (part 2 of Pumpkin Farm)

Hello again! If you are wondering why I am posting so soon after the 28th's Pumpkin Farm entry, than here's the reason: it's Part 2! I soon realised that I had so much else I wanted to express with the Maples and the beautiful Autumn season that I decided to make a part 2. Here it is:

(by the way, if you haven't read Part 1 yet, I suggest this is the best time to do it!)

The Maple's have gotten home from the Pumpkin Farm, and they are having a pleasant after noon at their home, outside, putting up Fall Decorations while the kids play in the leaves.


Theodore is on the ladder stringing up the Autumn Banner, while Georgina watches in anticipation. (if you look closely in to the far right of the photo, you will see that Millie is watching, too!)


Millie watching her Dad put of the decorations, but is supposed to be watching her sister instead, to make sure little Daisy doesn't get into trouble!


But of course, Daisy is too busy playing in the leaves, fumbling with her bottle to run off anywhere.



The Maples have previously hung up a "Happy Autumn" banner over the the balcony.


Pretty, don't you think?


Under the roof, inside the cozy porch, lies their stack of food and treats from the Pumpkin Farm: a bag of potatoes, some crisp cherry/cream deserts, two delicious jams and some ripe apples.

Georgina is now going inside to make her homemade pumpkin pie. This'll be fun to watch!


First, she cuts the pumpkin open.


Then, she cuts the stem off.


There! The pumpkin is done!


Soon, she melts it into a pot with butter and cream.


Then, she makes the pie crust and bakes it. Then she pours the pumpkin/butter/cream mix into the pie crust and ... voila! It's done!


I wish I could eat a pumpkin pie right now! Do you?

Have a lovely Autumn, fellow collectors! Bye!
XO Emilie and the Maples

P.S. If Florence Holiday or Shiloh Sylvanian is reading this, then I'd like to say that I love your new profile pictures on the Sylvanian Families Collector's Community forum! They are both really nice!

    Hi Emilie!
    Lovely continuation to your original Autumn post! Those Autumn decorations are so lovely! The house looks even more beautiful with them. :)
    No wonder Millie is watching her dad, it's always a bit worrisome when someone climbs a ladder so high!
    Daisy is adorable, as usual! Love that picture of her playing with the leaves!
    I also wish I could eat a pumpkin pie after watching Georgina work on hers! Lovely pictures!

      Hi Ayrell!
      Thank you for your comment! It's always great to hear from you and the residents of Arcfield. I had fun setting up the scenes and I too, find it looks better with decorations.
      I agree, the pumpkin pie looked so good, I wanted to eat one, too!
      I'm glad you liked the pictures!

    Well done to the Maples on their beautiful Autumn decorations! The house looks amazing! I also love the wreath on their front door-did you make it?
    Aww, Daisy is adorable! Those Autumn leaves really set off her ginger fur! I just also have to add that I love Millie's hat! It seems very stylish!
    Have a lovely October!

      Hi Kelsie!
      Thank you for commenting!
      I'm happy you liked the decorations! They seem to be a big success with the other collectors, too!
      I agree, Daisy is very cute playing in the leaves, and Millie appreciates you calling her stylish in her hat. It just fit her, but getting it to stay on the figure was kind of hard, as the Velcro wouldn't stick. My mom helped me make the wreath, I'm glad you like it! I do too, we followed Mimi's tutorial on the wreath but tweaked around the colours so it was more Autumn-y and less Halloween-y. As you can see, our wreath isn't the exact replica of Mimi's, but it was the closest example, so here is the link: http://ashmimi.com/language/en/2015/09/10/skull-wreath/

      Anyway, have a great Autumn Kelsie!
      XO Love from Emilie and the Maples

    Part two of your story is really good, Emilie! Straight away I was smiling seeing that first picture with Theodore up the ladder. Daisy in the leaves is, of course, cute as anything, and following Georgina's pumpkin prep step by step is a nice storytelling technique.
    I really liked it.
    Have a great October!

      Hi Jackson!
      Thank you for your kind words about my latest story.
      I'm happy I made you smile with the pictures and the words. I hope you have a great day and also, a great October!

      The Maples say hi, too!
      Bye-bye!

    Hi Emily!
    The Maples´autumn decorations are lovely. What a clever use of beads to make the garland at the porch.The banner on the balcony looks great too and so does the wreath! You did a very good job!
    A second part after the visit to the pumpkin farm was a great idea. I really like the picture of Daisy playing in the leaves ,I love the shades of orange and yellow. I also like the pictures where Georgina is cutting the pumpkin. I´ve never had pumpkin pie but I´d love to have a piece of the one Georgina made. I´m sure it´s delicious!
    Have a lovely weekend!

      Hi Cutata!
      Thanks for your comment!
      I'm glad you liked the autumn decorations that the Maples have put on their home, and also the pictures I had fun taking of the family members all dressed up for the season!
      I've personally never had a pumpkin pie either, but I think Georgina's looks delicious, too! :D
      I hope you have a lovely autumn and a great week!

Renovations in the Maple's House... PART 1!

Image
Hi everyone! I was hoping to do a post based on the Creative Crafting Challenge - Christmas Lists, but something else has been on my mind, and that is re-decorating the Maple Cat's house, and turning it into more of home. If you are wondering why, it's because I have moved into a new home, and all the furniture has been taken out and carefully arranged into bags. Now I can finally take it out and play with it again, much to my delight! Setting up new scenes is fun, ya' know! ......................................... Hope you enjoy! ......................................... Millie is quietly enjoying herself at the table, cutting up old scraps of newspaper and drawing on them, making pretty floral designs like the plants in her mother's workplace. But, nothing around Millie is as silent and peaceful as herself... "Heave ho!" The workers' joke. They are being especially kind today, not only doing reno's later but also helping to move fu

A Christmas Prelude

Image
Hello again, fellow collectors/photographers/bloggers! Since the move is getting back to normal and we have now partially settled in, let the posts begin! But first, I would like to say a few things: I've been pretty late on the Creative Crafting challenges, missing two in a row. The first one I missed was the Gratitude challenge, due to the business of preparations for the move and packing and unpacking my things. The second one I missed--the Christmas Lists one--because I posted a different topic on my blog instead: renovations in the Maple Cat's house. So... here's something to get us into the Christmas spirit and focus a bit first on the renovations. Here goes!! Oh yes, and one last thing before we start: Thank you, everyone, for your support about my blog, your lovely comments and the encouraging things you say! With this blog and this community, not only do I have an audience but also friends--from all over the world. So thank you. You, my parents, my sister

A Very Merry Christmas

 Hi again... it's been FOREVER since I have last posted a story, but those of you who know me from the collector's forum also know that I was thinking of getting back into blogging eventually. Soooooo without further ado I will now present a short Christmas themed story for the Winter Celebrations creative challenge... with pictures, of course. It was a lonely Christmas morning for Felicia Tuxedo. She had been so busy this year with her photography career, multiple photo exhibitions and moving into her own apartment that her Christmas tree didn't dawn a single decoration. Gazing out the window she saw slushy city streets and barely any snow. Was it just her, or were the Christmas lights a little dimmer this year? She decided it was best to relax and sat down. But her thoughts kept wandering to her family and friends back in the countryside. And suddenly, as if by miracle, there was a knock on the door and her mother Natalie appeared holding a shiny present and in her best c
