Giveaway update! Thank you all for entering. Now I’m seriously craving butternut squash, pumpkin pie and apple cider. I’m gonna have to make some apple cider muffins very, very soon. The winner is:
Congrats, Kim!
Guess what?! Umm…I like you. A lot. I’m glad you’re around.
Umm..on another note, how is summer almost over?! How did that happen?! Where did it go? ….and on top of me just realizing summer’s almost over, it’s Monday! In the name of self-pity, I think it’s fitting that I gift you a little something.
I ordered some stuff from my favorite online baking store, Bake It Pretty. I ordered: fluted flower cupcake liners, stripey straws, berry baskets and big birthday candles.
One person will win all of this awesome stuff. All you have to do is leave a comment below answering this question:
“What fall food are you most looking forward to?”
You all have by end of day Wednesday, August 18th.
And whoever wins, has to promise me they’re going to put their stripey straws to good use and make this Toasted Marshmallow Milkshake. It’s the right thing to do.
And these Pink Lady Cupcakes with the fluted flower cupcakes liners…
Oh and even if you buy berries that come in those not-so-cute plastic containers, just swap them out for the berry baskets. It’ll make your fridge cuter! Cuteness is important.

I’m actually from New Zealand so I am heading into spring and can’t wait! I’m looking forward to asparagus the most and then all of the lovely summer foods that I have been tortured with on Northern Hemisphere blogs over the last few months!
Sigh – I hate that I’m thinking about fall! I am looking forward to enjoying some stew though . . . totally can’t face it in summer!
Fall Food…Hmm… I can’t wait to have a huge slice of Carrot Cake, topped with lots of toasted pecans or walnuts. To me it’s the epitome of Autumn flavours!
x
Wow, definitely going to make that toasted marshmallow milkshake, winner or not. I’m also looking forward to making apple crisps and fun pastas!
TheSidewalkIsMyRunway
Pumpkin pie of course!
fall food – when I lived in santa fe it was the roasting of the green chiles. I’m now in upstate new york so it would be cozy apple desserts for the fall. Thanks for having the giveaway
wow! thanks for the food porn
for fall….i make the best veggie pot pie and i cannot wait for some cool weather to enjoy it with.
I am looking forward to warm apple goodie with homemade vanilla ice cream
Pumpkin, hands down.
I would have to say beef stew, my kids will eat anything that is thrown into it.
Soup in general, chili, italian chicken noodle, broccoli cheese yummm! Not really ready to give up summer tho.
Pumpkin muffins, pumpkin scones, pumpkin gnocchi with brown butter sauce, pumpkin cheesecake, pumpkin pie, pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks… haha pretty much anything with pumpkin!
I cant wait for Fall to arrive. It is 100 + here in Dallas so the cooler temps will be welcoming. I am looking forward to sweet potatoe pie and a fresh apple cake. Of course some homemade pumpkin lattes as well. your baking items are very cute.
Apples everrrrrrything. Yum. Crisp yummy apples in oatmeal with cinnamon is the best way to start my day off in the fall. And then of course all the lovely things you can bake with…
Can’t wait for Sweet Potato Corn Chowder, it’s been on my mind for a week! http://youreverydaymama.blogspot.com/2009/09/chipotle-sweet-potato-corn-chowder.html
Although I am not very happy with the summer coming to an end and having to take out the sweaters and the boots all over again….I can’t help but think, mmmmmm……apple pie…or maybe a sweet potato souffle.
I love all things pumpkin, so fall is a favorite. I can’t wait for puumkin pie and a glass of apple cider!
I love those cute, cute cupcake liners! I wish I’d had them yesterday when I made some red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. hmmmm…I’m looking forward to eating some pecan pie!
Pumpkin bread…..YUM!
pumpkin chocolate chip muffins… one of my favorites!
Chicken Poblano soup and chicken and dumplings. Oh, and chili.
Pumpkin…no contest. But as I’m in Colombia during the fall I must depend on my family to send it to me as it doesn’t exist here. But this makes pumpkin even more special.
Caramel Apple Cider !!! YUM.
Mmmm am I allowed to say Thanksgiving dinner? Yummy. And of course soup… I can’t wait to curl up on a crisp autumn day with a warm bowl of soup!
As soon as apples are ready for picking – go apple picking and enjoy them in all ways possible!
Those cupcake liners are gorgeous!
My favorite fall food is actually a drink….Chai! I make it with fresh turmeric and ginger, and crush cardamom pods and peppercorns up with my mortar and pestle. It’s such a lovely routine, and I really miss it during the hot months.
The summer was full, warm and wonderful… but thinking of fall is re-assuring. It’s the return of routine, the cozy nights, the colorful leaves, the wood fires and staying inside. I like that thought. This year I am looking forward to trying many different mushrooms, from morels to chanterelles. They are so versatile and I love their earthy undertones, that provide some sort of a misterious allure to fall dishes, and they make me think of faires, gnomes and other forest creatures. I think truffles are mushrooms too (I often use truffle oil to finish mushroom dishes). I am thinking risottos, soups, gratins…
Apple Cider and pie!
All of the fresh apple recipes – YUM!!
Pumpkin desserts but I also think of apples desserts.
pumpkin and apples…. both picked from the apple orchard. Then, the baking opportunities are endless!!
Chili… A nice spicy hot bowl of chili topped with cheddar and Fritos tailgating for a football game… my idea of a perfect fall day.
I love pumkin everything…pumpkin cupcakes, pumpkin cheesecake, pumpkin bread, and my favorite- pumpkin spice latte!
Squash to put in soup, stews, even lasagna!
Cortland apples and sweet pumpkins are Autumn in food form. can’t wait for the greatest season to arrive!
cheers,
*Heather*
So, I know I can get these year round, but I always associate them with fall. I can’t wait for apples!
everything pumpkin!
… and chili.
My absolute favorite “fall food” is actually a beverage. Pumpkin spice lattes are the epitome of fall to me….mmmm. So warm and comforting and they give you a little fuzzy feeling inside
SOOOOO excited for fall!
I am looking forward to anything with pumpkins…soups, pies and pumpkin bread!
my favorite fall food is tarta de manzana (a simple apple tart) – with fresh, hand picked apples!
I am looking forward to big pots of chili served with cornbread!
Spaghetti Squash! Freshly picked my from garden!
I am definitely looking forward to my fill of apples!
Pumpkin anything!
Pumpkin Pumpkin Pumpkin……All foods pumpkin… cookies and muffins and pie. I can’t wait.
I must admit, I am going to really miss summer foods…I have been on the biggest Watermelon kick this year! But for fall, of course the apples and pumpkins…lots of spice breads and thanksgiving dinner…yummmmy!
Pumpkin and butternut squash. Love them both roasted and blended into soups with roasted apples. I can’t wait for fall!!
Oh gosh, when I think of fall food not only do I think of eating it…I think of processing it for later use. The memories of my Mother’s kitchen with my Aunt, Grandma, Mom and Sister range from pure exhaustion to a wonderful sense of accomplishment. Hearing the “ting” from the canning jars is one of the best sounds in the world. I now can by myself for the most part, which is sad. I canned pickled beans for the first time and pumped up the brine with my dried hot peppers from last fall and garlic. The wait until they turn the proper color is madding.
Beef Stroganoff simmered for hours in my cast iron dutch oven!
Mmmm I love soup! All kinds! This year I want to get crazy with some thai and Indian flavored soups.
I’m also excited for everything pumpkin- specifically pumpkin martinis. Deeeeeelish!
With fall come the Jewish High Holidays. Every year I battle to recreate my grandmother’s homemade matzoh ball soup, and this year I’ve got new ideas to incorporate.
I cannot wait to start making big batches of soups and chowders and chili. It’s great to relax with a warm cup of chili and a Sunday afternoon football game, plus we have enough leftovers for a week worth of lunches.
mmmm…. fresh pressed apple cider!
Lots of coffee flavored desserts… espresso please!
As others have mentioned already – pumpkin pumpkin pumpkin. Fall would not be fall without pumpkin. But my favorite are pumpkin soft cookies with cream cheese frosting. yum.
http://www.saycheesephotospotblogspot.com
Pizza. Its not really a fall food, but I refuse to turn the oven on to 500 degrees during the summer so I have to wait until its cool enough outside.
Apple pie
^ pumpkin gnocchi in a comment above sounds WONDERFUL!
I am actually really looking forward to fall this year because I have been craving lots of root vegetables. I cannot wait to make a big pan of roasted vegetables with potatoes, carrots, celery, squash, and whatever else I can find!
Butternut Squash Soup!
Such cuteness! I love Bake it Pretty!
I’m looking forward to apple picking so that I can make apple crisp, apple brown betty, apple pie, etc.
Thanks for the giveaway offer
Oooh, that milkshake looks amazing!
I am looking forward to picking apples and then making homemade apple butter. I could eat it by the bowl full.
I’m most looking forward to soups and stews. It’s just too hot here in the summer to enjoy the comforting warmth of a good soup. And they make good simple dinners for the family. Bring on the cooler weather!
I can’t wait for sweet potatoes. Sweet potato pie or even just baked sweet potatoes! Mmmmm….
PS – You totally inspired both dinner and dessert from last night (the dinner for our first wedding anniversary, no less). Potato frittata and the strawberry crostata (with blueberries, because that’s what I had). It was divine!
I’m definitely waiting for pumpkin everything – scones, whoopie pies, pie, you name it.
Warm Amish home-made unfiltered cider with pulpy floaty bits stirred with a fat cinnamon stick….
Pumpkin!
I’m really looking forward to roasted root veg this year. It’s too hot now to roast anything so I’m so wanting a big plate of roasted sweet potatoes, onions and squash.
Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies – in fact, I want them so badly I already made a batch with a remaining can of pumpkin from winter.
I love fall! I can’t wait for apple crisp!
I’m just looking forward to baking again without heating up the entire house! Oh, and apples.
I love Bake It Pretty so, so much.
I think I’m most looking forward to scores and scores of pumpkin recipes.
Applesauce, apple pie, apple crisp.. pretty much anything w/ fresh apples!
I can’t wait for my cheesy vegetable chowder, pumpkin soup, and apple pie. I’ve never made my own, but I think this is the year that I try!
The food I’m looking forward to most is apple cider donuts! My favorite part of fall is that it’s just cold enough to bundle up, but you can easily get warm with some fresh donuts and of course, apple cider to dunk them in!
I am most looking forward to a huge pot of chili with fresh backed corn bread! Mmmmmmm
I can’t wait for pecan pie! Yum!
I can’t wait for pumpkins. Specifically, pumpkin pie. Oh, and sweet potatoes. Yum.
Roasted root vegetables. Yum!
Squash. this is the first year I tried some varieties and fell in love with butternut and spaghetti. It took some convincing lol

A drizzly afternoon
Plenty of wet leaves blowing about
Temperatures in the 50s
Big blankets
Sweatshirts
Fall colors
Wow, now I just can’t wait!

I am looking forward to all the squashes! Ooh, I dream about butternut, acorn, and spaghetti squash all through the summer months…that, and baked pumpkin!
I can’t wait for winter squash & pumpkins!
I discovered a beef stew recipe last year, from a new cookbook I picked up called Real Stew. It was so delicious; my husband declared it the best, and said I might as well throw out the cookbook and keep only the page with this one on it. I have to agree! Can’t wait to have it again.
Cuteness is very important! I’m looking forward to butternut squash soup. YUM!
Potatoes! Fresh from the farm just picked last night potatoes! We buy them at the farmer’s market in 50# bags for $8 because we are okay eating the ones that aren’t pretty enough for stores. Once you mash ‘em up who cares what they look like right?
Pumpkin muffins with cream cheese filling. Heaven.
I’m looking forward to sweet potatoes. Thanks!
Southwestern Butternut Squash Soup….Yummmm I’ve been carefully tending the squash in my garden and I have some BIG ones!!

I can’t wait to make soups,and stews.
Squash, apples or a combination of both! http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/acorn-squash-with-apple/Detail.aspx
I can’t wait to make kabocha cake in the fall! If you haven’t heard of kabocha, it’s a small Japanese pumpkin-looking vegetable. My mom has a recipe for kabocha cake, a lightly sweet and moist cake. So delicious! Love eating it for breakfast with a cup of tea.

My favorite fall foods are my mom’s chili, no one can make chili like her. Also, pies are my favorite in the fall. Pumpkin pie, Sweet potato pie, and Apple pie.
I can’t wait for Thanksgiving! I love all the traditional smells in my house…turkey, stuffing, PIES, etc.
I’m not so much looking forward to a specific food as I am looking forward to sharing more of those foods with people I love. Pies, potatoes, whatever. I love them all!
Butternut squash! (Sure, you can get them year-round, but it’s not the same until fall!)

I can’t wait for squash! As a soup or just roasted on its own, it’s one of my favorite foods. Num!
There are so many Autumn foods I’m already looking forward to! In the UK here the weather is already quite Autumnal haha, so I may or may not have been sneakily adding cinnamon to everything anyway… I’m really looking forward to lots of baking- a warm kitchen is the best for fighting the cold weather away; this weekend I’m planning on merging the best of Summer & Autumn by baking a cinnamon strawberry crumble.
I guess though, the foods I’m most excited about are winter vegetables, parsnips expecially. I am obsessed with roasting parsnips in the Winter and could happily eat them with every meal, especially when they’ve been drizzled with a generous amount of honey- quite frankly, drool worthy.

Homemade applesauce!

Apple pie!!!

Mom always baked for others and she was a blue ribbon winner at many events, so the eatin’ was good!!

PUMPKIN! Lattes, bread, scones, ravioli, soup, pie, muffins, everything!
a nice homemade apple pie!
Honestly? The best part of fall is drinking big steaming mugs of hot sweet tea- Irish breakfast in the mornings, a nice cup of our stand-by regular Lipton with lunch, at night maybe a spicy orange or an earl grey or back to a breakfast blend- but our favorite time of day is if Mark can come home at 4 – my nephews with the bottomless pits for stomachs are chilling with a bowl of popcorn after homework is done, we call our grown up kids and tell them to come over for a bit while I whip up a batch of buttermilk oatmeal scones for the whole crowd. Everyone takes a break with hot tea and buttered scones, jars of different jams line the counter, the dogs mill around hopefully scavenging for crumbs – it makes my heart full and my life is complete at that moment, baking for those I love and having them all home at the same time-
Soup! I love a big bowl of warm soup on a cool autumn night!
Apple pie. Definitely.
I’m looking most forward to bow tie pasta with pumpkin sauce. A close second would have to be chicken pot pie.
Pumpkin anything – pie, ice cream (or milkshakes), cookies, holiday roll, cookies. Hot ciders – apple or cranberry, actually almost any hot drink like buttered rum or whisky toddy.
The fall food I’m most looking forward to is apple pie.
I promise! I DOUBLE DOG SWEAR to make that amazing shake… even if I don’t win. I’ve actually been saving it for a special occasion.
I love all of their pretty stuff, I’m like a kid in a candy store.
Mmmm…fall makes me think pumpkin. Every year I make Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins in celebration of the season, and then pumpkin bread later on. If not pumpkin, something maple-y. Yum.
Like so many people, I’m looking forward to apple pie. A slice of warm apple pie topped with some shredded cheddar cheese was my favorite as a little kid because that’s how grandpa liked it. Guess the little kid in me hasn’t grown up because that’s still how I like it.
PUMPKIN! I am really excited for the pumpkins to be in seaason this fall. Everything from the pumpkin patch and carving, to eating them of course. I am especially interested in finding and trying new recipes with pumpkin–something aside from the usually pie recipes. Let’s get cupcakes, muffins, scones, and everything else delicious with pumpkin in it!
apple pieeeeee
I am looking forward to turkey and cranberry sandwiches the most, leftovers after Thanksgiving.
Honestly the first thing that came to mind was Pumpkin! But on second thought…was Thanksgiving stuffing. Especially the corn bread kind. Mmmmm. I also can’t wait to experiment with my apple cider cupcake recipes I’ve had sitting around.l
I can’t wait for Pumpkin Pie!
pumpkin!!! and TURKEY!!!
butternut squash soup and anything baked with pumpkin!
My grandpa’s chili
CHILI, and mums, which are not a food, but my other favorite Fall thing!
The country that I come from, really doesn’t have fall as a season (we only know it exists by reading books and looking at pictures; what you are taught at school, etc.) leaves never fall from trees and never change colors. The only “clear” seasons are winter and summer. It may sound weird but it is really the way it is; so food is not seasonal, you can eat oranges, corn, bananas, etc all year round. What changes are the festivities and traditions and the appropiate food for them. The “day of the dead” is a day in which you remember people in your life that are “ahead” of you…and it is celebrated the last day of October. People visit the cemetery and bring food, being the most representatives of the day: a special kind of bread with cinnamon and sugar; and “champurrado” a hot beverage made from chocolate, cinnamon, anis seed, clove, sugar and vanilla.
I’m looking forward to honor my late members of the family and eating the delicious bread and drinking “champurrado”.
Oh, please pick me! I just moved across the country and have been dying to bake…it reminds me of home.
Oh, and I can’t wait for pumpkin muffins!
I can’t wait for homemade apple pie a la mode, pot roast and lentil soup. Yum!
Ooohhhh….chili! And pumpkin pie!
What’s not to love about fall cooking. Summer is an embarrassment of riches, but it’s too hot to want to cook. Fall means apple pie, stew with root veggies, roasts, baked delicata squash with brown sugar and butter with just a touch of nutmeg and hot apple cider and the farm we supported through a CSA program. C’mon autumn!!
I love you, love your blog, and love this giveaway! As cliche as it sounds, I’d have to go with pumpkin pie! For some reason we never ever have pumpkin unless its in the fall. I miss it!
My own gingerbread cookies! I bake so many during the holidays that people think I’m crazy but I love sharing the simple cutout designs and the rich flavor. I periodically bake some in the spring but they just seem to taste better in the fall and winter!
hot cider!! i guess that’s technically a beverage, but it just screams of fall! and chili!! ohhhh wow! that’s real food! =)
(btw i might have to make that toasted marshmallow milkshake even if i don’t win!!) =)
