Every year, around this time, I start dreaming... dreaming of my favorite time of year. FALL! It's been a hot summer, and it still is, but no matter, to me I feel fall right around the corner. I can smell the fragrance of wild fennel in the morning, and that different light. Two things which are always the first signs of fall for me. I have been cooking a lot, and I always cook using seasonal ingredients, but I look forward to the changes I will make to my meals by using all those favorite flavors of fall.
