dreams of autumn

I am so happy that is at least technically autumn. Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur should come when it is cool, when the apples are fresh and numerous and varied, and when baking a pie is a pleasant thing. I made my first pie of the new season this past weekend, and it was a thing of beauty. (It also tasted pretty darn good!) Today I think I will branch out into making an apple cake, one that also looks fun from the bundt pan.

My house has Cortlands, Haralsons, Honey Crisp, and Ginger Golds right now. And still I want more varieties and more options.

I was going to paste in photos of the varieties, but instead I include a link to the Minnesota Apple Growers Association. Look, drool, bake.

Happy Autumn!
