Raspberry Dark Chocolate Empanadas
Not too long ago I heard of the idea that being busy is nothing to brag about because it often times can mean that we aren’t taking the time to savor the moment, live in the present or smell those roses. I’m as guilty as the next for playing the “I’m SO busy” card, and while I have gotten slightly better over the years…I’ve got a long way to go. I’m out of town this weekend for Fitz’s wedding in Estes Park and come home to a week of work, work, work and fun, fun, fun. So busy. But not too busy to make these raspberry dark chocolate empanadas.

I don’t really like pie, so I don’t see a reason to celebrate it in my house. When is cake day? What about tart day? Because today I’ve got an Irish Apple Tart and I’m not sure where it fits.

Orchard Crumble
I commented to my friends the other day that I’ve really been enjoying the food of the last month or so. I laughed and shook my head when they both responded with, “you mean, U.S. food?” because yes, they’re correct, including this orchard crumble. As much as I love eating anything and everything different, when it comes to what I really crave, especially when the weather cools around this time of the year, I usually veer towards the comforting and familiar tastes of the good old U.S. of A (mom food excepted…paprikash!).
