Ok, so technically we are in October. Nah, it really is October. Geez. Where did September go people? Mandarins are in season in September, but let's not mince months. They are still super deliciouso! I just got a bag of them and can not help but munch on them 24/7 until my tummy aches. I love them! I don't put them in an Asian Salad or make a silly fruit cup. Nope! I eat them straight up. They are super easy to peel and usually don't have any seeds. (In fact, I think I need to eat one right now.) They are so sweet, tangy and tart. Despite this unpredictable up and down weather, one thing is for sure, Fall produces my favorite foods. Period. Exclamation point! Everything tastes so much richer and deeper in flavor.
I also saved all my mandarin peels (which is plenty) and added some cinnamon sticks to some water and left it simmering in a small pot in my kitchen. It's my own potpourri creation. I'm sure it's been done before, but it's new to me! It makes home feel cozier and makes me want to wash all my sheets with extra fabric softener and cuddle on the couch with my puppies. Even though I do all that stuff anyways, it entices me to do it morel!!
