Hi Reader,

Even though the calendar says we have a good week left of summer, it sure feels like fall. We had two glorious summer-like days last week in the 80s, but that was after a solid week of rain and 60 degrees and now the weather's just gone back to highs in the 60s now. The forecast shows some sun in the next 10 days, but low 70s, which is nice for fall, but definitely not sundress weather for me.😀

So after my initial, "it's too early" wail after our late August rain, I'm embracing the fall and thinking about what I like to wear, the plants I can now safely plant (or transplant), AND the cooking and baking I can do now that the temperatures are so high. So it's all good.💜

With that thought, here are six recipes that would be great for this transition to fall cooking, all with 5-star ratings (and some of my favs).

Which means our stretch of mild, summer-like weather is over and my sundresses really have to be put away this time (our false end-of-summer in August and September had me thinking...
