As luck would have it, Mother Nature decided to start a Santa Ana Wind heat wave this week. When Phillip informed me yesterday that it was going to be nearly 100 degrees today, I said something to the effect of, "Shoot! I'm supposed to bake pumpkin cookies tomorrow, but if I fire up the oven we'll all roast!" Phillip looked momentarily crestfallen, then replied, "Well, just make sure you bake them in the morning." Wise man.

Pumpkin Cookie Season Is Now Open
Today is the autumnal equinox: the day of the year when nights stop being shorter than days (equinox = "equal night"), and autumn officially begins. It is a time honored tradition (translation: I started doing it two years ago as an excuse to make goodies . . . like I need an excuse) that I bake the year's first batch of pumpkin cookies on this day.
Mmmmm . . . pumpkin cookies.
