Is it fall yet? I wish it was, I love everything about fall. The colors, the cooler crisp air, and don't get me started on fall baking. What other time of the year do you have an excuse (and a kitchen cool enough) to bake everything and anything you want? In New England the spring is wet, as is the winter so making a spur of the moment trip to the grocery store to lug in ingredients to bake on a whim just isn't reasonable. And even with air conditioning, baking in the summer is sometimes almost unbearable. But there comes this point, about the beginning of September, and it lasts through the end of fall and maybe the start of winter, where it just seems the most ideal time to bake. Open the window's, let the cool air wash away the stale summer air in your home, and just bake. And...if you're 7 months pregnant this urge is spurred on even more by that wonderful nesting instinct.
