Favorite fall foods are on their way!

Today's trip to the farmer's market was markedly different from last week's, a sure sign that fall is on it's way. Sweet corn had been replaced by squashes in every shape and color. The green beans I had been hoping to buy and freeze were gone, potatoes red, brown, and purple in their place. Only a few small bouquets of sunflowers stood for my daughter to linger over. Soon, pumpkins, mums, and apples will take over and fall will have officially arrived.

Even as we prepare to say goodbye to sweet watermelon and juicy honey rocks, we're looking forward to the harvest fall has to bring. WebMD has a list of fall foods to be thankful for, including apples, cider, sweet potatoes, and butternut squash among them. (They also have a few ideas for lightening up those delicious, but often heavy, cool weather meals.) What about you...what are your favorite fall foods?
