Why, yes, I am thinking of the U2 song. š
Busy as I am trying to get the follow-up to Cedar Ridge doneāor at least get the first draft out of my head and into a Word docāIāve still been trying to take time to enjoy autumn. The leaves are gorgeous this year, vibrant shades of yellow-gold, lush orange, and fiery red. And the days ā¦ I think only fellow autumn-appreciators can understand how the energy of the days seem to feed the soul.
So, how am I making the most of the season? Well, Iāve been doing a lot more baking, for one thing. Cooler temperatures allow for that, you know, and what gets you in the mood for fall more than the spicy-sweet scent of fresh baked cinnamon rolls and pumpkin-apple muffins? And donāt forget zucchini bread. Friends and family who garden report mixed success this year, but zucchini always abounds, am I right? Thatās greatāIāll take it. I have the most amazing recipe for zucchini muffins and since I only break it out in the fall, I welcome bumper crops of the green squash so I can bake my heart out and freeze the results for future enjoyment. Oh so good with a cup of coffee on a chilly morning or a rainy afternoon.
Feel free to message me if youād like the recipeāIām always happy to share!
