Recipe : Baked Apple Donuts
I absolutely love this time of year! The crisp chill in the air and leaves turning every shade of golden. Apples and pumpkins are at their prime and ready for picking.

The first thing that comes to mind when I think of summer is not barbecues or lemonades or days spent at the beach, but rather William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Several years back I had the opportunity to watch the play at the Globe Theater in London. I do not recall much about the cast nor their interpretation of the text, but I do recall a particular scene in the woods where the ... Continue Reading
