Are you wondering what the thing sticking out of the pumpkin is??  It’s a ladle! This is a cool soup tureen, with the ladle handle coming out of the lid.  I have the tureen sitting on a wooden pedestal with fall foliage around.  The orange thing down in front is my Fiesta-ware salt (or pepper) shaker.  Depending on where I sat to draw, the background of each drawing changed to include a few of the following: part of a canvas painting on the wall (seen here), my pale pink hoosier cabinet, a white ladder back chair, or the “buffet”~ an oversized dresser.  Fun to see just how many drawings/painting you can get from ONE place in your house.
