Ah, here it is…autumn cooking. Isn’t there something special about autumn? Apples, crock pot creations, baked sweet potatoes, spaghetti? The kitchen is in constant ‘good smell’ mode in autumn.

Do you have Thyme for Peaches and Cream (Fresh Peach and Thyme Gelato)?
It’s a good thing this recipe finishes up the last of the fresh, juicy peaches given to us by a friend of our youngest son because I was running out of clever headlines using peaches. Ha!

All of these are romantic and put you in the mind for love. And between Yes!Chef! and myself, we have been making quite a few strawberry recipes lately.
Strawberries, Basil, Ice Cream with a Roasted Cracker Crumble?
Berries are a good way to celebrate summer. Ice Cream always says summer. Add summertime Basil and you can make yourself a yummy summertime dessert that encompasses all three flavors plus a surprise crumble on top. I mean, seriously, how can you resist this?
