We’re already had our first frost in Vermont,
so it’s time to celebrate all things fall. Today, try one or more of the following:
• Go apple picking – even if it’s just to
your local store-and make a special apple dish, such as crisp or pie.
• Purchase a sugar pumpkin and instead of using
it as a centerpiece, make a pumpkin pie or bread. How to Cook a Pumpkin
• Root vegetables are in abundance so it’s
a good time to make a supper of roasted vegetables. Don’t forget to peel some
garlic and add to the mix. So delicious. Roasted Root Vegetables
• Cider is the drink of choice, so heat
some up-microwave is fine-with some nice cinnamon or other spice, and relax by
the window as nature unfolds this new season.
• If you have changing leaves, pick some
of the prettiest and preserve them.
• Go for a walk and notice all the signs of
fall-crunching leaves underfoot, chill in the air, the smell of wood stoves and
burning leaves, early morning frost and fog etc.
• If you hear “honking,” chances are it’s geese
flying south. Look skyward and marvel at the amazing trek these birds make
twice a year.
• Go for a hayride
• Plant spring bulbs in your garden
• Collect pine cones. Set out to dry as
we’ll have plenty of uses for them as we come closer to winter.
