This weekend was the first true fall weekend of the year- a full day of rain Saturday, and it was so cold you needed gloves on Sunday. I turned to food for comfort...
For dinner, I enjoyed this recipe of Sweet Potato Fries. They came out pretty dark so next time I'll reduce the cooking time a little bit before flipping them over.
I also prepared a garlic veggie/pasta dish with carrots and zucchini, which is pretty classic comfort food for me.
For dessert, I baked this Pumpkin loaf that I found on Pinterest. I couldn't use a loaf pan because I didn't have one, so it's more like a cake... But it's pretty freakin' awesome. Perfect for accompanying my pumpkin chai tea from David's tea (my absolute favourite tea right now).
Like I said, fall is in the air. And I can't help but enjoy all the comfort food coming my way.
What food makes you think of fall?
My husband LOVES sweet potato fries. Perhaps I should check out that recipe so I can win Wife of the Year?

You were a busy bee! These recipes both look mouth-watering. I'm really into Costco's jalapeno-lime aioli which I'm thinking would be delish with those fries!
