"For man, autumn is a time of harvest, of gathering together.
For nature, it is a time of sowing, of scattering abroad."- Edwin Way Teale
"Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth
seeking the successive autumns." - George Eliot
seeking the successive autumns." - George Eliot
"A few days ago I walked along the edge of the lake and was treated to the crunch and rustle of leaves with each step I made. The acoustics of this season are different and all sounds, no matter how hushed, are as crisp as autumn air."- Eric Sloane

I got this recipe from a friend and it is GOOD!!
BLT Chopped Salad with Corn, Feta + Avocado
YIELD: SERVES 2
TOTAL TIME: 25 MINUTES
ingredients:
2 cups butter lettuce, chopped
2 cups fresh arugula, chopped 1 pint grape tomatos, quartered 4 slices thick-cut bacon, fried and crumbled 1 cup sweet corn 1 avocado, chopped 4 ounces feta, crumbled
1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lime, juiced 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper
directions:
As a note, to chop my lettuce I like to lay it out on a big
cutting board and just continuously run my knife through it (in all different
directions) until it's chopped as much as I like.
In a large bowl, combine lettuce, arugula, tomatoes, corn and
avocado. Add in salt, pepper, olive oil and lime juice then toss well to coat.
Fold in bacon and feta then divide evenly amount 2 plates. Serve!

Enjoy another wonderful day and I'll see you tomorrow. Betty
