After an enjoyable Autumn Walk ...


Autumn is a wonderful season, I love seeing the trees and countryside change colour. The browns, the russets, the oranges so many wonderful colours for the eye to see and us to enjoy. I often find you don't have to travel far to see some lovely Autumn shades and if you are fortunate to have a nice dry day to enjoy that walk ... even better!

Here in the UK the National Trust have been encouraging people to take part in this year's Great British Walk. It takes place at National Trust properties all over the country from 8 September to 24 October. You can discover orange clad hills, woodlands of golden leaves, blue evening skies and if you're lucky some red squirrels along the way. There are many different walks you can go and enjoy. Of course you do not have to go on a National Trust walk, why not enjoy a walk around your neighbourhood. A
fter an enjoyable Autumn Walk I get home, step into the kitchen and put the kettle on ... you just can't beat a nice cup of tea or coffee, and a slice of low carb lemon cake, find the recipe details here


now where's my tea cup and plate ...


Happy Autumn Wishes

All the best Jan

Your lemon cake looks delicious and well deserved after a fall walk. I am fine with early fall.

That's one of favorite cakes. It goes great with warm tea.
The leaves have not begun to change yet where I live.
I'm looking forward to it.

Lemon cake is one of my favourites, perfect after an autumn walk.

Jules said...

The cake looks delicious. I am a huge fan of eating cake after a good walk. I am also a huge fan of eating cake during a good walk! X

Wow what a beautiful fall picture!! You don't have to tell me to get out and walk!! : )
The lemon cake looks delicious. Lemon cake was my step-dads favorite and it always makes me think of him.

Hooray for Autumn. And walking. And tea and cake.

I always wondered about the National Trust and someone recently said it was a charity. I like that they save old buildings and land for future generations. We in the states used to have something like that, but most of our virgin land is being swallowed up by large conglomerates now that our govt. is no longer eco friendly.

That cake would certainly go well with a brisk walk. It would also look lovely on that plate, and with that cup and saucer you showed.

Hi Jan, I'm back from a long blog break. This is a gorgeous tea cup/saucer. The lemon cake looks delicious and I love walks in Autumn! This is my favorite season, but it is still very hot here.
