September is always a time when we slow down get ready to go back to school. The evenings are cooler and we start gather our harvest and prepare to hibernate. This September has been extremely warm! We have enjoyed plus 30 temperatures and it seems like summer is finally here!
September 12, 2011 was the Moon Festival and my family were all together on the weekend to enjoy a meal together and celebrate. Probably only second to Chinese New Years this holiday is very significant in Asian culture.

Our family have our own harvest festival, usually in the gathering of apples and the production of apple pies...factory style! Every fall we pick apples from my Dad's two apple trees and make a dozen or more pies, peel apples and freeze them for future apple crisps and other delights. This year the young nephews were also taking part and learning about how to make Mom's special pies.
