As if it ever goes on hiatus with confectioners and having a sweet-tooth. This year I wanted to try another holiday favourite and dived right in with making my own Homemade Torrone, Round I, test sample (above); a soft and chewy nougat with toasted nuts and freeze-dried strawberries. Soo delicious! and even more exciting with adding a beloved fruit. Last year, here. A great way to celebrate making it to the end of another 'wild' year. What would you make? :) Recent reads and loved finds below...

I'm convinced Summer and Fall had a bit of a falling out this year... summer would not let go, giving us maximum, joyful sunny days and more, and fall, well, adopted a quiet okey-dokey mode... "sooner or later, I will happen; it's the nature of things." And so it flowed with our favourite season (for most) now in full flourishing flux and delivering lots of elevated days too. More behind the scenes after the jump, and I'm very excited to share a new fun and flavourful chicken dish coming up this week. It's even on the table for this year's turkey main #2. Happy Sunday!...

Of all the fruits available this time of the year, guavas have always had a warm and mellow full-bodied feel during our chillier mountain weather.
