September, the disappearing month


Can you believe that September is almost over? Where did it go?

We have had some beautiful fall weather here in Upstate New York. What have you done to get back in touch with nature and enjoy the last few weeks of great weather before the winter kicks in? My family finally checked out Beaver Lake Nature Center in Baldwinsville. If you have never been, make sure to check it out. The walking paths are beautiful and there is plenty for your little one to explore.

We also were able to get out apple picking. There is a little organic farmer near us in Jamesville called Adams Acres. This man has planted an organic Apple Orchard in his backyard as a hobby- how cool is that! Unfortunately he lost about 80% of his crop this year due to the frost this spring. His apples are still delicious; so make sure to keep him on your list for next year.




With the change in temperatures, I am finding that my body is craving more comfort foods in the forms of soups and stews. I am looking forward to making a batch Shepard’s pie this weekend with some local lamb and beef. That is the ultimate comfort food at this house. I have an amazing recipe that is definitely a labor of love, and worth every second!
