What is better than Fall? You are surrounded by bright falling bits of color everywhere you walk- the air is crisp, you get to sip steaming cups of hot cider or coffee and eat apple or pumpkin everything. Hot soup tastes good again---Long sleeve shirts are comfortable. The optimist in me loves Fall----the pessimist starts getting scared for a long Maine winter. But for now I think I'll go eat a chunk of Irish Soda Bread I made last night and have a hot coffee.
Sidetrack- I started an Assistant Pastry Chef position today at a local bakery---I'm pretty excited to learn all kinds of new techniques- and feel lucky that they picked someone with only home baking experience----the pay is pretty lousy the hours are insane (3am-11am)---but I think I might actually enjoy working somewhere warm that smells amazing all winter!
