It’s September. Finally.

It definitely doesn’t feel very September-y here in our 90 degree heat wave but bring on the pumpkin pancakes and butternut squash fritters.

I’m ready for you, Fall.

I’ll just be eating these super crispy butternut squash latkes, if you must, in my bikini by the pool.

I just need an extra dollop of sour cream on each fritter. K, thanks.
