Fall Apple Picking

Dear Readers,

What a wonderful time of year! Fall, where the leaves turn brilliant colors and a crispness is in the air. It reminds me that it is time to go apple picking. Today will be a day filled with friends and laughter as we go out to the orchard. What to make with the apples? Pie? Cake? The possibilities are really endless.

The Weekend and Spaghetti!

Dear Readers,

It is fall! This season brings cooler weather, changing leaves and studying recipes. I love the Julia Child's cookbooks.  If you have a chance to pick up thee books, please do. They are detailed and sophisticated.
