I love Autumn!

I just love the Fall!  For me, September is really my "new year", where I stop, inhale, and take a look around.  It's like when you're a kid in school and you get new pencils, a brand new crisp notebook, where none of the pages have yet to be touched.  Fresh starts, new beginnings, new opportunites....

I feel energized by the cooler air and the beautiful array of colours.  Golden yellows, russet reds, deep burgundys - nature's tapestry at it's best.

And the fall for me means turning on the oven again, spending lazy Sundays cooking up a storm and baking muffins, cookies, quick breads.  I like to spend Sundays cooking for the week ahead.  It sure makes it easier during the week when I know that we have nutritious, home-made meals waiting at the end of a long day.  I like to make things that freeze well such as meatloaf, lasagna, breaded chicken cutlets, and turkey chili.

So tell me, what's your favourite season?
