I like the idea of seasonal cooking. Using produce, meats, even dairy and eggs in season as it was available is something our great-grandparents were familiar with. Once grocery store chains, refrigeration, and global shipping became more common, the idea of seasonal eating faded mostly into memory. I think it’s fun to look through old cookbooks that had seasonal menus in mind, like the cookbook pictured above.

Explore more than just Pumpkin with this beautiful Autumn Harvest Squash Pie
Pumpkin Pie is usually one of those things I look forward to every autumn. It’s all about the nostalgia; those iconic tastes of the season. The question is: when is too soon to make one? Is October too soon? How about September? For me, it’s mostly determined by when I can get my hands on fresh pumpkins. Or better yet… fresh baking squash.
I love baking pies with fresh pumpkins or squash I bake in the oven myself.
