Our Retro Texas School House Brownies are worth the wait for a great afterschool treat! When my kids were in school (a very long time ago) my friend gave me this recipe to make brownies for a school bake sale. I ended up making two batches of the brownies, because our family ate so many of them. This is without a doubt the best brownie that I have ever had. 

  Happy October y'all! The fall days are cooler, the leaves are starting to turn and the State Fair of Texas is open. I am sitting on the screen porch planning next weeks meal plans and I am so happy you can join me today. I will definitely be looking to include some of the favorite fall comfort recipes this week. This will be contingent on the availability of the products to prepare the recipes. Our Farmers Markets are full of amazing fall products right now, I can't wait go to the market!

  Welcome to Full Plate Thursday, 714 and welcome October! Fall is officially here and we are enjoying some amazing fall food and all the fun that goes with it. I am so excited that you are here to enjoy the party with us today. We have some great features from last weeks party, I sure hope you will enjoy all the features! I hope you have time to visit the country and take a walk down a country road to enjoy the beauty of fall. Thanks so much for coming today and we sure hope you will come back soon!

What's In Season and How Can I Use It? That is the question that we address in our Food and Recipe Basket. Fall garden production is hardy here because we still have temperatures that allow production to continue. Although we still have some of our summer production available, some of the all time favorite fall products are ready to harvest in the month of October. There was truly a bumper crop of squash this year, the apples and pears have been abundant. I love all these fruits and vegetable's and look forward to making the recipes that we will be presenting to you for our October Food and Recipe Basket.
