Seasonal Joy

October is my favorite month and autumn is my favorite season. The air feels fresher and smells like fallen leaves. The trees are beautiful, displaying their last glory before the cold grey of winter. Pumpkins are everywhere, especially in my home. Pumpkin pie and honeycrisp apples are a daily treat. A fresh sunny day in autumn energizes me.

If you have never had a honeycrisp apple, I urge you to try one. It is possibly the most refreshing apple ever created. They last a long time, too. They are eating apples, and I would never ever waste them in a pie or an apple crisp. They are perfectly balanced in flavor and need no addition of fat, cinnamon or crust.
