Yummy! Fall!
I love fall, and I love fall foods. So lately I've been in kind of a cooking spin, which has only been encouraged by the yummy recipes I've been rounding up on the web.

Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese Spread tastes like pumpkin cheesecake -- on bagels, graham crackers, and even ginger cookies. The bub loves it for breakfast, too.

Saw a scan of the latest Family Fun magazine this morning at Not Martha (I'm supposed to be receiving a year of this, free, but it's been weeks and weeks and I'm beginning to think it'll never show); cute little cinnamon and sugar-ed leaves! Didn't find the recipe on their website, but it sounded like such an easy and fun thing to do on some rainy (please???) afternoon, I found what should be a similar recipe for Puff-Pastry Leaves at Martha Stewart Kids.

Last night I finally tried out Crash Hot Potatoes, courtesy The Pioneer Woman. Next time I need to use more salt, and place the rack higher in the oven (we appreciate the crispy here), but they were still delish.

We had most of a sack of tart apples from some local trees (already having made a crisp, and eaten some). So yesterday I cooked a nice batch of chunky applesauce in the slow cooker. Mmmm, cinnamon.
