It’s fall.
This year has been a lot. Lots of good, and lots of, well…lots.
The fall is when we begin to take stock, to look at our storehouses and peek into our cupboards and assess the harvest of the year, and while this year, and this week in particular, has been a pins and needles affair, the pleasures of the year are what I’m leaning into.
I talk a lot about pleasure and gratitude being a way to help us navigate everything from the biggest community upsets to our own personal triumphs.
I’ve been finding pleasure in seasonal food, which is a surprise to no one: and this round up of recipes features old favorites like fire cider and quince marmalade, plus new favorites for root vegetables that are a sneak preview from my next book.
I hope you make and enjoy them for your cool weather, short day meals. And as each is an act of tending to myself, I’d love to hear how you’re tending to yourself in this season, too.
