I still remember the first time that I tried a Cookies and Cream caramel apple at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory so I decided to make them at home. They are super easy to make. Simply swirl the apples in melted white chocolate and then dip them in crushed Oreo cookies.

Lentil Soup in Acorn Squash Bowls

Squash and pumpkins make eye-catching soup tureens, adding a rustic touch to the tabletop that can’t be recreated with any store-bought ceramic bowls. You can use the squash and soup of your choice. I found that lentil soup and acorn squash pair nicely together for a hearty, warming and healthy meal that is perfect for chilly days.

Pumpkin Bagels

Bagels, specifically pumpkin bagels, have been on my baking list for a long time now. I decided that it was finally time to tackle bagels this fall in part because I was having some serious cravings for pumpkin bagels with the arrival of autumn and in part because my son is at a stage where he loves kneading and making things with dough.
