For those without gardens or crops to worry about, this
summer has been one of long, warm days and lots of
bright sunshine for picnics and outdoor activities. For
farmers, Summer 1910 has been a time of parched fields
here in the state, which made relaxing under the sunshine
a little more difficult. In either case, the summer is about
to become history, for autumn officially comes in on
Monday.
Often the change from summer into fall is a one of
puzzling decisions which blouse do I wear today, the
short sleeved or the long sleeved? do I put the lawn fur
niture away? shall we go to the beach one last time, or to
the mountains to preview the foliage? etc.
The problem is often one of category. We like to
categorize the season as summer or fall. Seine things
which are enjoyable in either season do not fit a particular
slot. Such are our recipes today.
While we often run recipe topics, now during the last
issue of summer seemed like a perfect time to ran our
readers’ recipes which have not been used under other
topics and are well worth sharing. So enjoy the last hours
of summer this weekend and fall into the old routine
Monday with some new recipes.
