A Very Fall Day

Happy first day of Fall!!! This is my favorite time of year. I've watched the leaves turn beautiful colors for awhile, but now that the true season is here, it's amazing. It seems like over night the trees knew it was fall and time to shed their leaves.
I had a very fall like day. I raked leaves in flip flops and a fleece jacket. I was shocked to smell that someone had a fire going, but it made me happy at the same time. I love watching the leaves fall while warm and comfy inside. It makes me want to stay home and make apple pies, and drinks tasty things.
Speaking of tasty things, Josh and I made dinner together tonight. We had pan fried garlic red potatoes, and grilled steak. Recently, we haven't had a lot of steak, and I have to say Josh is great at making it. The potatoes would have been prefect if they had a bit of parmesan cheese, but that isn't necessary. The best part about this recipes is that it can be made in less than 45 minutes, and requires very little prep work.
I love cooking with Josh! It gives me a chance to share something with him that I love to do. Yesterday I work an 11 hour shift and when I got home I was totally brain fried. I made shake and bake chicken for him, and I ate an apple and popcorn. Not the classiest meals, but it did the job. With this new work schedule, I need to revise the meals I make and how I prepare them. I envision my slow-cooker getting used a whole lot more. I love coming home to the house smelling amazing, so I don't think this will be hard.
