Hey everyone, it's Jeremy here and I have something to get off of my chest...
I hate summer. Okay, hate is a strong word. I strongly dislike summer.
What does summer have to offer? Bugs, pit stains, lack of air conditioning, crowded beaches, construction, my car being preheated to 400°F at all times, sweat in general, and did I mention SO MUCH construction?
I just REALLY prefer fall. I mean what is there not to love? We've got crunchy leaves, jeans, PSLs, hot coffee, soup, orange trees, and Halloween. A major yes, please!
Fall is the season of change, and I can already feel it happening. My current life might be a crazy mess but I totally am walking hand in hand with fall through it all. So let's cheers to a season of gratitude, positivity, and most importantly, YUMMY FOOD.

Pumpkin Spiced Cashew Cream Toast
"Everything about this has me drooling.. can’t get enough of the cashew cream!" -Megan

Vegan Butternut Squash Pasta
"Ohh myyy heavens! This is delish! I made it last night.. and accidentally chose the largest butternut squash that Trader Joe’s ever did see! I had to double the recipe! Good thing I have a hungry boyfriend at home who can eat a box of pasta in one sitting!" -Athina
Golden French Lentil Soup

Pumpkin Pie Protein No-Bake Bites

"Great recipe!! Thank you for sharing, it’s delish! I added black beans instead of white kidney, some jalapeño, paprika, and some corn. Soooo yum." -Tara A.

While I do love summer, and I'm a June baby, autumn has my whole heart!! This season cannot be beat...at all! The crisp air, excitement, changing leaves, cozy sweaters, hot coffee, allthefallfood. I could go on and on, but for the sake of this comment, I'll just cut it short and say fall is perfect. This roundup, oh my word so many amazing recipes! I really love all of them, especially the savory meals. I can't wait to enjoy them! I did make the Cranberry Pecan Goat Cheese Bites and Gingerbread last year, and I'll def be making them again! Thanks, Jeremy!

This post just made me so HUNGRY!! Gotta agree with your thoughts on summer.... it always LOOKS nice in the magazines, but it's truly not the most glamorous time of year. Looking so forward to the coziness of fall 🙂

Glad I am not the only one with these thoughts on summer. (:

Nicole @ Laughing My Abs Off says
Ah these are all so lovely, and you even introduced me to some oldies that I hadn't ever Bookmarked before! I will say, in defense of summer, that it is also the season of vacation (if you're not yet of working age), iced coffee, and fun (everyone lets loose a bit in summer) 😉
Jeremy King says
I agree with your defense of summer! Though summer to me always means summer classes 🙁 I think you are inspiring me to take a vacation soon. Also.... Iced coffee is GREAT in fall, imo, 😉

I’m such a hardcore summer produce fan, so this transition to fall produce will be tough! I’m excited for all those pumpkin recipes though!
