The distinct chill of fall is in the air and I've started engaging in the usual rituals of preparation for cold weather — unearthing my pullovers and sweaters and hypoallergenic comforter.  I'm cancelling items on my social calendar in favor of curling up at home with a pair of knitting needles and a few skeins of yarn.  And with all this newfound time at home, I'm dreaming of roasting butternut squash with sage, baking a silky cinnamon spiked pumpkin pie, and mulling a comforting mug of apple cider. Seems like some of my favorite food bloggers have the same idea.  Check out these awesome autumnal recipes and share some of your own.
