Fall is my all-time favorite time of the year. Bright, sunny, crisp
days with finally no humidity makes me feel great to be alive.
Finally the heat is passing and we see the rustic palate of
changing leaves grace us with new beauty. So many foods
bring back memories of autumn weekends, football—of
course, we're in the South—family traditions, and holiday fun.
When autumn is in full swing, our thoughts turn to harvest
festivals and fireside suppers. Family times with upcoming
holidays all revolve around being at the table together.
Everyone has their favorite way to prepare certain dishes so
it's fun to mix things up once in a while—get the folks who
don't usually like sweet potatoes to give them another chance
or coax the traditionalists into falling in love with an unusual
seasoning combination.
