Fall is my favorite season. Easily. Sure, summer brings watermelon, beach trips, and outdoor BBQs, but --at least in Washington, DC -- it also brings oppressive humidity, which necessitates a co-dependent relationship with my air conditioner. Not fall, though. Fall brings light, cool air that requires comfy jeans and big sweaters. Sure, no watermelon, but what about ripe, juicy, honey crisp apples from West Virginia?
Think fall can't color outside the earthy palette? Look at these lovely radishes and think again.
There are so many things to look forward to in fall: Halloween, pumpkins, zombie walks, drag queen races, thanksgiving, cornbread stuffing hikes in the Shenandoah Valley, black bear spotting, apple picking, punkin chunkin...
...and fresh broccoli.
