I hear ya, Nancy. It's my fave, too! I am sooooooo happy it's now officially
fall and nice and cool outside.

I roasted a chicken a few days ago and have the carcass simmering away with
some veggies and bay leaves right now. Smells wonderful! Tonight is "Pizza
Night" at a local pizza place for our oldest daughter's elementary school
(for every order placed--using a special form--the restaurant donates some $
to the school), so we'll have pizza for dinner tonight. Will probably use
the stock to make soup tomorrow (type of soup TBD later), since we're
supposed to get a butt-load of rain over the next few days.
