It Is Official

Fall has arrived in Northern Virginia. You can't really tell by looking outside, but there's a chill in the air. Finally.
I celebrated by baking an apple crisp, after finding a great deal on less-than-perfect looking Golden Delicious apples at the market. Who cares what they look like when they just get chopped up and baked into a delicious, aromatic treat? The combination of the baked apples, spices, and vanilla ice cream worked their magic, evoking the warmth and coziness of a perfect fall evening. Finally.
