Tis the season for ripe macintosh apples!

There’s just something special about fall. Maybe it’s warm pumpkin pie, ACERBIC yet somehow-still-sweet apples, or orange leaves, or maybe, it’s the farmer’s markets across New England that are fixed with a CORNUCOPIA of seasonal produce. The farmer’s markets I go to in R.I. usually begin in late spring and end during the last part of October. Last weekend, I went home because I needed a break from school. But really, I was just eager to see and taste fall-time foods.

Don’t judge a book by its cover! Their appearance may scare you, but these pumpkins are sweet and tasty on the inside.

These Japanese white radishes are very unique. Dipped in fleur de sel, their flavor comes alive.

I’m a DEVOUT lover of summer because of its markets that usually have sweet corn and ripe tomatoes. As we move into fall, we start seeing more root vegetables. My favorite are sweet pumpkins, which scream pie! Their seeds can also be baked with cinnamon-sugar to enhance their flavor.
