Weekly Menu Plan ~ First Week of Autumn


Hot tea (and coffee too, of course), rainy days, turning leaves, sweaters, scarves, boots, and everything pumpkin.  It's true.  I am one of those autumn-lovers.  With such a long, hot summer that we have here, the transition to fall always feels miraculous.  It gets to the point where you start to wonder, will it ever cool down?  One starts to doubt.  But then it does, and all of us lovers of cool, crisp, and cozy dawn as many layers as possible and rejoice over a bowl of soup.
