I'm still here! Not to worry--if you're prone to that.
I'm working on some menu-planning experiments, and this has been a busy month
I'd like to know something. I'd like to know what your favorite autumn food is. When you think of crisp-weather autumn and then think of eating, what do you begin to crave? Apple pie? Roasted pumpkin seeds? A particular hearty soup?
Leave a comment with your answer to that compelling question.

I think of hearty soups. Particularly things with kale, sweet potatoes, and butternut squash.
Yum. :)
I agree with the soups comment. Made butternut squash last week and it was a smashing hit.
Off the top of my head at this moment? - Pumpkin pie, apple cider, dark beer, chicken casserolles, & Indian food. I must be hungry.
Apple crisp, stew, and deer sauerbraten [:
All those sound so tasty! I made apple crisp (so easy) a few days ago, and it was delicious.
Thanks for the comments!
mmm... Yes, pumpkin pie for sure. And apple crisp! Pumpkin bread. Peach cobbler. Apple strudel.
I love fall foods :]

Homemade beef soup with barley and veggies, homemade chili and cornbread, apple cider, apple pie, and this isn't a food, but my mom makes this homemade potpourri that she cooks on a back burner all day. It has cinnamon and orange peal, among other things.

P.S. I made apple pie a week ago and discovered that lard makes AMAZING pie crust.
Annie,
Thanks for sharing! That potpourri sounds wonderful. And I agree with you on barley in soup. :)

Chicken Pot Pie!! I'm sure you can come up with a version much more creative than the typical one I use.... here's hoping ;)
Sarah Jo - Thanks for the vote of confidence. ;) For Chicken Pot Pie (I made it about a week ago) I basically follow an allrecipes.com recipe called "Chicken Pot Pie IX." The sauce is nice and non-runny (if you let the pie cool for a bit before slicing). The flavor is /really/ good. Celery seed is the key, I think. :)
