Just Around the Corner

With morning temperatures in the high 40s/low 50s, I can finally tell that Fall is just around the corner, bringing October along with it. To me October is the epitome of fall... pumpkins, changing leaves, crisp mornings (perfect for a good run!), and the beginning of a million yummy treats and dishes. (I could go on and on, but I will spare you my "Ode to Fall".) 

Among my edible fall favorites are Blue Moon Brewing Co.'s Harvest Moon Pumpkin Ale, Archer Farms Cinnamon Vanilla Nut coffee,  and homemade Apple Raisin Muffins!! Yum!!

Just for the record, all Blue Moon's Seasonal blends are really good. I simply love the pumpkin the most!

This is especially yummy with a bit of vanilla creamer! 

And yes, that is my blue toaster in the background.  Stay tuned for some apartment pictures very soon!

The use of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg makes these a great fall treat!

Also, check out this recipe for Brown Rice and Edamame from Martha Stewart. I will definitely be trying this one soon...
