Back To Baking - Sweet Edition

The first week of autumn has been dreary and a touch cooler here in the Hudson Valley. We have even slept with the windows open! All of that puts me in the mood to bake. How about you? This recipe roundup features fall flavors with seasonal scents. I have added some baking tools, because my kitchen could use some.
