It’s about that time for me to officially pack up and put away the last of my Spring/Summertime clothing that I’ve been holding onto (and bid farewell to the pieces I’ve chosen to donate this year) and begin the process of hanging up my collection of sweaters, fleece-lined leggings and jackets again.

While the Fall season undoubtedly belongs to soups, chilis and stews, the quintessential “cozy” foods to enjoy after a brisk day out in the foliage or when surrounding a bonfire with your friends and family – I’m always and forever a lover of a good, hearty pasta dish this time of year since they seem […]
