September Fresh Starts

Bridging the seasons with plum crumb bars.

Hi Bakers!

Welcome to Fall! We are officially IN IT, friends. Apple picking, light sweaters, hot coffee, and the first soup of the season. We also have soccer games, ballet lessons, and for the first time, days where all three kids are at school. I feel like I’ve been waiting 9 years for this moment. And as my youngest went off to preschool last week, I thought, “now what?”

Plum Crumb Bars (recipe at end of post).

Of course my to-do list is always a mile long, but now I can tackle some of the meal-prep and recipe testing during normal working hours. This apple cider cake (stay tuned) isn’t going to bake itself! 

Speaking of, I’ve started the school year off strong with meal prep. My eldest daughter doesn't like sandwiches, but she is keen to eat a salad for lunch. I’ve been preparing grain bowls and pasta salads for her and myself to eat for the week.

I’m back…
