happy fall ya'll

there are a few things i miss about 'mainland living'.  one of them being the changing of the seasons.  living in portland there are usually 2 or 3 seasons.  some years it's the 'rainy season' and 'the 2-3 months it doesn't rain season' with spring and fall mixed in.  and some years it would actually snow a 1/4 inch or so and be 'winter' for a few weeks--well, actually it does get pretty cold in portland sometimes--nothing like idaho falls though! so right now i'm missing the beauty of fall.  the colors, falling leaves, the fall smell in the air, the chill-dressing in cute sweaters, layers, wearing socks :) and making 'fall food' 

soups, pies, pumpkins, winter squash---a few of my fall favorites.

here's a few dishes i'll be attempting over the next few weeks--devan allowing  :)
