The leaves are changing, the crisp air of autumn fills my lungs and my favorite time of year is just around the corner. While I do not like snow, I affectionately call it "The White Death", I do enjoy the holiday seaso

n that occurs whil
e the snow is present. From Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas to New Years I am a happy camper. I love the feeling of brothe
rly love in the air and everyone's pretty darn happy. It just makes me want to hug somebody. Lucky Sam. Haha. Th
ere are just so many happy things associated with this time of year it makes me thankful and happy. One of these things is the food. I really like, nay, LOVE to cook. Its a new passion I've come across in recent years and now that my favorite season is coming around some of my favorite recipes are po

pping into my head. This got me going on a recipe hunting spree. I've been online for literally days looking for new, yummy sounding recipes to try. Thus far I've added at least 10 to my recipe box and can't wait to try them. I've found two Halloween recipes that I want to use in a few weeks. "Bloody Eyeballs" and "Icky Intestines" are sure to be a hit with everyone under the age of 10. I'm also excited to try "Broken Glass Jello" and the "Applebee's Blondie" recipe.
I've also gained a new appreciation for bottling. My mom donated a hug

e box of apricots to the "newly wed cause" and helped me make jam. It is SO good. Then, she donated a box of
AMAZING peaches to the "cause". We thought we'd died and gone to heaven. Sam and I made peach freezer jam all by ourselves and though its runny it still tastes awesome. Well, this has been a happy "i-love-this-time-of-year", "i-love-food/cooking" joy

ful moment for me. Also, if you have any amazing recipes you'd like to give me, please do.

The intestine picture looks so gross but if Sam is anything like his brothers he'll eat it anyway. I too like to cook when I have more than 8 inches of counter space to work with. Happy Everything to you!!
