Harvard Yard

I can’t believe it’s been over a month since I posted. It breaks my heart! I love fall so much and I usually love cooking and baking during October. Things have been so full on though since I moved back to Boston. Until last week, I had been working every single day for over 30 days straight. It was exhausting!! I was lucky if I had the energy to pour myself a bowl of cereal for dinner and eat it before passing out at an embarrassingly early hour, never mind making actually recipes. I haven’t even decorated for Halloween yet!!

But things are marginally slowing down here. I have my weekends back (for now…) and I’m almost all caught up on things that I didn’t have time to do while working. So, I can finally devote some more time to the blog! YEAH! I made some insanely yummy pumpkin things: granola, muffins and simple syrup (SO much better then Starbucks), some chai cookies and a kale salad (cause, you know, veggies and stuff), which I hope to get to you in the coming weeks (though I probably just jinxed myself).

For now, here is a recipe round-up of all my favorite fall foods that I have posted on the blog before. I know round-ups seem like a cop-out but I love doing them. I enjoy going back through and revisiting recipes I forgot about (Hello, Pumpkin Beer Pretzels and Pumpkin Cookie Dough Truffles!!) and reminding everyone of some favorite dishes (Black Bean Butternut Squash Burritos, Southwestern Pumpkin Burgers and Beer Bread…all SO good!).
