Reasons to Love Fall...

With radio stations, the mall, stores, commercials etc etc getting all excited about Christmas, I decided to put together just a few reasons {mostly from our day apple picking} to keep loving fall!


Homemade Apple Crisp!

Not to mention Halloween, Thanksgiving, crisp fall days, changing leaves, cozy sweaters, pumpkin lattes...

Dinner Last Night...

I just had to share this because I am obsessed with Dave's Fresh Pasta.  Their sauces and homemade pasta's are to die for.  Right now I live just a 5 minute walk from them but in about a month I won't be so close so I figured I'd take advantage now!

My absolute favorite sauce they have.  Mascarpone is an Italian cheese (used a lot in tiramisu-yum!).  It is a spreadable cheese made from made from crème fraîche - I think this might be one of my new favorite words :)  Mascarpone cheese is ricotta-ish in consistency and often used in sauces.

Before going to Dave's I had never used fresh pasta to make my spaghetti and sauce.  It's so easy to do and tastes a million times better than the boxed varieties.

Just add the pasta to salted boiling water, stir to separate then cook for 2-3 minutes and VOILA!

Buon Appetito!

Cape Cod 2011: Wellfleet & The Beachcomber

I love this beach! Not just because it's SO cool...



...but also because of The Beachcomber beach bar !!



If you ever have the chance to visit Wellfleet I HIGHLY reccommend a trip to Cahoon Hollow Beach and a few cocktails at The Beachcomber after!
