Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!
I am so happy you decided to stop by!!
Blogging has always been a stress reliever for me along with an avenue to share my passions which are my home and my garden.....
I
feel it is a personal Journal that, hopefully, someday, my Twin
Granddaughters will be able to look back on to learn about who I
was....
I will be posting 3 times a week on MONDAYS, THURSDAYS and SATURDAYS....
As always, click on each picture if you would like to enlarge it....

In my last post, I shared how I decorated my Kitchen Tree and Hutch for Falloween, a combination of both Fall and Halloween....
Click HERE if you missed that post!!
Thanks to Andrea, over at The Cottage Market, for featuring my Blog Post, "Let Me Tell You Your Fortune" Halloween Buffet, Dining Room, 2026 as one of her features from last week's A Morning Cup of Joe Link Party!!
Thanks so much , Andrea, especially for these kind words!!!
"Oh Debbie… there is so much Halloween personality to discover on your fortune teller’s buffet! Sammy the skeleton has his own handmade hat and bow tie, and the display is filled with palmistry signs, pumpkins, an embellished skull, and treasures gathered over the years. I love how she mixes her own creations with favorite finds and meaningful gifts… take your time visiting, friends, because the little details are part of the fun!"
I want to Thank Amber, over at Follow the Yellow Brick Home, for choosing my blog post, September Monthly Goals Update and October Goals, as one of her features from last week's Thursday Favorite Things Link Party!!
Thanks again, Amber!!
Please stop by and link up to these charming parties!!
And now for a few Personal Notes...
For the New Year, I am trying something different with my 3 times weekly posts....
On THURSDAYS,
I will feature what I cooked and ate during the week, showcasing local
cuisine and a few recipes for things that I actually made...
I decided that on SATURDAYS, I will showcase What I Have Been Up To in the past week, sharing events and places I went to, if any....
On MONDAYS, I will be featuring What I Have Bought or Been Gifted Recently, if anything...
Since today, SATURDAY, is the day I share what I have been up to and any events I went to, I want to share my Fall Family Dinner that I hosted last Sunday....
I kept it simple and served hot dogs, loaded baked potato salad, chicken bites, chicken and noodle crock pot bake and corn on the cob.....
Danielle and Gigi
Jim and Lily
I love how Danielle did their hair......
Lily has the straight part....
Lily when asked to smile!!
And Gigi has the zig zag part in her hair....
She enjoyed the Halloween Village and did not touch anything, except for a few bones and rearranged the skeletons in front of the house!
LOL!!
The twins LOVE to eat corn on the cob at Mimi's house, frequently just sticking their faces into it....
Daddy thought he would be silly and do the same.....
Then the girls got the giggles over Daddy....
Getting some drinks from Daddy.....
I love their outfits....
Gigi with her G pop's penguin stuffie......
Lily
And Uncle Joey and Faye.....
It was such a wonderful and joyous evening spent with my family!!!
I also want to share my everyday Halloween tablescape in the Dining Room....
My son Joey and I eat in the Dining Room every day so I can't get really fancy.....
I used a vinyl Halloween tablecloth that my late husband Joe bought because I figured it would be better for my family dinner with the twins.....
On the left side of the table....
A book written about interesting tombstones and epitaphs written by someone I know.....
My crystal Angel salt and pepper shakers in front of it and a Halloween mask....
In the center...... 
And finally, continuing my tour of the Kitchen decorated for Falloween..... 
A Jack O Lantern that I made from a pretzel container and a witch's hat that I also made.....
The cards were gifted to me by my late friend Anne Marie.....
I bought the Ouija board place mat at Big Lot's a few years ago......
I placed glass Jack O Lantern candle holders from Dollar Tree on top of crystal candlesticks....
To the right......
I placed a wooden pumpkin in front of a plain white napkin holder....
I will be sharing this area of the Kitchen.....
First, I want to share my Falloween Beverage Bar......
A little bit of Fall and a little bit of Halloween.....
I like my Brew Station by Hamilton Beach.....
So much so that this is my second one and I even have a brand new one in storage when this one bites the dust because I am afraid they will discontinue them.....
My morning cup of brew in a Dollar Tree Fall mug....
And my ghost rests.....
A few years back, I spray painted wire shelves I had and boards in my stash red that surprisingly fit perfectly on the shelves to create more space.....
I hung a Dollar Tree embellished sign and placed a wood "Need More Coffee" sign in front of the coffee canister....
I placed a "Vampire Ashes" sign in front of a jar filled with Instant Coffee.....
The mugs were part of a Coffee Gift set that my late husband Joe bought at Big Lot's on clearance....
Flavored coffees and honey for Tea.....
You may remember that I bought these bottles this year....
I placed the "Pumpkin Spice Liqueur" one here....
More pumpkin spice signs.....
In front of my flavored tea bags....
And a cute ghost mug filled with my Hot Chocolate ......
This year, I used black vinyl place mats in the Kitchen and did so here.....
On a marble turn table that was my late neighbor Elly's......
I placed a spider web hot pad and Halloween mugs for my Sweetner packets and flavored creamers....
On the side of the refrigerator.....
I bought the mugs in Gabes a few years ago....
I bought the plastic Halloween utensils in Dollar Tree.....
"Black Widow Venom" bottle....
More coffee mugs under the shelf.....
On top of the refrigerator......
A candy corn display......
A Dollar Tree embellished pumpkin, candy corn bottle brush tree and a ceramic piece of candy corn.....
I bought the bread box at Michael's and use it to store normal decor.....
My late friend Anne Marie gifted me this candy corn ceramic tree which is battery operated and on a timer.....
These I bought in Dollar General.....
Candy corn is in the mason jar lamp.....
Lily showing a picture from the fridge to Daddy....
She later tried to hang it on the Dining Room Halloween Tree.....
Maybe a future decorator????
I bought this rug in Gabes....
Smile, Lily!!
She later kept bending down and pointing to the candy corn on the rug....
I think they enjoyed their visit to Mimi's House!!
I hope you will stop by to visit again on MONDAY when I will be continuing the tour of my Kitchen decorated for Falloween!!!
Stay safe, healthy and most of all, HAPPY!!
And try to find JOY in every single day! 
Thanks to those who took the time out of their busy day to spend a little bit of time with me!!
