Beets & Cream Ice Pops with Strawberries
It’s officially fall, and beets are in season! But depending on where you live, you may still have a few warm days ahead. Here in Montana, we’re enjoying the second wave of in-season, and wonderfully inexpensive strawberries. But with summer winding down, this will be the last of them. SO. It’s time to make the last cold treats of the year, and do so colorfully. Popsicles in general are very easy to make, and the recipe is much more of a general guideline than anything else.

I have nearly all of my plants started (I keep saying I’m done, and then I buy more seeds… oops), and the chicks have officially entered their ugly-teen-stage.

Poached Pear and Spice Loaf — Baking into Autumn
I didn’t realize how desperately I had starved for a true Autumn until it arrived. “Alaska in the fall” doesn’t really exist beyond the three days you may see yellow leaves before everything’s hastily buried in snow.
