Yesterday, the temperature topped out around here at 86 degrees, F. The humidity was so high that when I stepped outside from my air conditioned digs, my sunglasses promptly fogged right up, forcing me to stumble my way to my car. Thats muggy, people! Now I ask you is that any way for Autumn to behave? Its November, for crying out loud!
I compensate by turning my a/c down really low and padding around the house in sweaters and big, woolly socks. Pathetic, isnt it? Another way I console myself about this situation is to cook and bake warm, spicy things, using many of the Fall fruits and vegetables I find at my local market. This lovely apple cake is one of them.
