So, I’m in a food funk.

I had a good dinner on Sunday for our wedding anniversary, but lately I just haven’t been feeling the food love.  Case in point: dinner last night – tuna salad sandwiches.  Dinner Monday?  Canned soup.  Dinner tonight?  Leftover tuna salad.

I haven’t fully changed seasonal gears yet, which is part of the problem.  Summer goodies are becoming more scarce, but so far I have not really managed to get the fall goodness under my skin.

That being said, it is starting to be apple season.  I need to get up to the orchards and find myself some Stayman Winesap apples.  If you haven’t tried these, do so.  They’re an heirloom variety – no super-sweet hybrid, this.  It was developed in the mid-1800s and is a beautiful apple for cooking as well as an unusual treat to eat out of hand.  It’s not a pretty fruit – dull red with a brownish bloom.  The flavor, though, is intensely sweet-tart and winy.  Many orchards grow them to add depth to their pressed cider.
