Apples And Pumpkins To Celebrate The Official Arrival Of Fall

Several people mentioned they were getting warning notices when they tried to go on my blog. I have fixed the problem and it's now safe. Thanks for your patience.

Happy first day of fall! (Well, technically it's tonight at 11:09, but who wants to get that technical?) Fall is, without a doubt, my favorite season. I often dream about living in a place where it's always fall. Words that come to mind when I think of fall are crisp, breezy, gusty, golden, colorful... I love crunching on leaves. I love the smell of the leaves. And I love the traditional foods of the season like apples, pumpkin, and squash.

I thought I'd share with you some fall dishes and desserts I've made that you might enjoy this season.
