It seems that you are either a summer person or not.

I love to swim, and I would give just about anything to live near the ocean, but I am positively NOT a summer person.

I sunburn even with protection. The heat gives me a migraine, and sweating is just plain GROSS. Plus it seems that summer is all about being out and about. Visiting with friends, family, traveling, and camp-outs.

I enjoy hanging with friends, camping in small doses, and traveling, but to be honest I am a total homebody. I think that’s why I love fall and winter so much. Hopefully this is going to be a RAINY fall and winter, perfect for hibernating.

Really, I’m not antisocial, well maybe a little.Β Β I just love being home with my kids, all cozy in jammies, watching movies or playing games.

Today, it’s 106 degrees, and while I may be hiding inside my air conditioned house, it’s not quite the same. I am SO ready for fall and all things apple and pumpkin.

This stovetop apple crisp is easy to throw together, makes your kitchen smell like fall, and in case it’s 106 where you live too, you don’t Β even have to turn the oven on.
