A great compilation of Fall recipes Johanne. Like me, you get excited about Fall inspired dishes. There’s nothing quite like those aromas permeating every room in the house. Thanks for sharing!
I can’t wait to get those aromas permeating back in my kitchen! Goal is to be moving back in by month’s end! Nothing was damaged so my kitchen should be reinstalled.

What a wonderful collection!!! Can I place my order now??
Elaine: I would start with the sweet potato hummus followed by the stuffed acorn squash and finish your dinner with one of those cranberry oatmeal squares. Did I get it right for you??
