Prompt: Foods in Autumn Which fall foods and drinks are your favorites? Write about the foods most people enjoy during autumn. And if you wish, do you have any recipes to share? ----------- When it comes to food, I am not picky, but with autumn, pumpkin anything takes the front row. Yet, it is not the only thing that makes my mouth water and my eyes shine. Let me begin with soup. Soups are rich and they warm my soul. I'm a fan of soups at any season. And I always freeze in a plastic container some kind of excess soup for later. I like creamy wild mushroom soup (if I can get wild mushrooms), French Onion Soup, with melted cheese on top, all kinds of lentil soups, all delicious, hearty, and deeply satisfying. Surely, then, are the abundance of fall vegetables and Thanksgiving turkey. Truthfully, I am not a fan of turkey at any other time, but there's something special to be with one's family and carve the turkey at the Thanksgiving dinner table. Then, who doesn't love the serving of the stuffing, potatoes, and cranberry sauce, with possibly a joke or two to spice the meal, even more? Furthermore, I did say pumpkin first, didn't I! Pumpkin spice muffins and apple cider or a delicious pumpkin pie...How about that? Also, pumpkin spice baked oatmeal in the morning. This is because autumn food offers inspiration and the use of cinnamon, nutmeg, an cloves. Once upon a time, I made a pumpkin pie mixed with shredded apples and it became a favorite for my family. Plus, I can't pass by without mentioning our pumpkin bread. For me, it always is autumn's culinary best. |
