One more work day till the long weekend! Anyone doing anything fun? We are staying at a B&B in Saratoga, and hanging out in both Saratoga and the Albany, NY area, which is, coincidentally, where I grew up. I am so excited! It is beautiful there this time of year. I am hoping to get a little more apple picking in -- at Indian Ladder Farms, where I went growing up. They have the best cider doughnuts. My husband has never had a cider doughnot, can you believe that? So I am taking him to get the best of the best!
Here's what we'll be eating when we get back...along with a lot of apples, I hope!
-- Spaghetti alla Carbonara
-- Fast French Onion Soup
-- African Chicken Stew with Couscous
-- Roasted Pears, Walnut, and Goat Cheese on a Green Salad
I have never been apple picking and this weekend my friends and I are planning a little trip! I love making carbonara and I'm looking forward to your recipe.
ReplyDeleteI don't think we're going to get to go apple picking this year. :-( But I've been taking advantage of all the sales!
ReplyDeleteI'm camping down on the French Onion Soup. I adore adore French Onion soup, but it always takes so much work and time. I can't wait to see your fast and easy version. I will likely be making it next weekend. Thanks for sharing...and enjoy apple picking for me!
ReplyDeleteI swear I come here to see your menu almost every week and just sit here drooling. I can't wait to see that African stew. Have fun apple picking! One of my favorite pastimes.
