Happy October...

It’s been well over a month since the kids all went back to school and I’m just now getting my bearings. Any of you feel the same? Michael and I had an epic family summer with our three kids and I’m now appreciating a little extra time to get back on track with my workouts, organizing my life a little bit more, and finding time to connect with all of you here on the blog. Drop me a note below and say “Hello”.

If you didn’t already know, this is my favorite time of year. Living in California, we don’t experience the seasons as vibrantly as back East where I grew up, so the kitchen is where I’ve discovered my Autumn most comes to life. All the smells and tastes that take me back to Upstate New York and to my early 20’s living in Manhattan. Right now, I’m obsessed with apples and spaghetti squash. Soon it will be pumpkins. Then persimmons… and so on. Lots of recipes I can’t wait to share with you! Be sure to subscribe to this site so you’re the first to know what’s happening. :)

What are your favorite things to cook this time of year? What do you most look forward to eating, seeing, experiencing? Send me a message in the comments below.
