To quote a classic McSweeney's essay, it's decorative gourd season, motherfuckers! At the risk of sounding like the most basic of bitches, I love fall because I can drag my boyfriend to pumpkin patches and farmers' markets and all that other stuff that probably makes him want to abandon me in a corn maze.
As far as produce goes, you can forgo the grocery store in favor of Wenninghoff's squashes, tomatoes, peppers, and other autumnal produce. A garden-fresh tomato is to a real boob what a grocery store tomato is to a fake one, you know? This go around we picked up pumpkins, pears, hot peppers, cherry cider, Canadian bacon, and jerky. The jerky didn't even survive the car ride home. I'll be back to buy bison, grassfed butter, and eggs. It may be a bit longer of a drive than the grocery store, but it's worth it to me!
