I am lucky enough to live in a climate that experiences, in their fullest, each season the world has to offer. Of all four, fall is my favorite. The intense aromas and colors are unmatched in any other season. The sky is never bluer and the shadows seem to take on a life all their own in autumn.

The foods of this time of year also tend to be my favorites. Apples abound, pumpkins are ripe and ovens are lit in expectation of comforting dishes.

Rice is almost always served under something here in Dutch Pennsylvania -- whether it be gravy, chili or stewed chicken. The other way that it's enjoyed is in rice pudding. This is one of those dishes that everyone here has a recipe for. I love this recipe for two main reasons -- the sugar is very limited and there's lots of milk so the kids are getting a good kick of calcium. You can leave out the sugar altogether and add it per serving, but I found that the kids were adding way more that way. If you leave in the little there is, it incorporates through the whole pudding and isn't too sweet at all. This takes time but is very worth it!
