I was not an Autumn lover, but in the past couple of years she tricked me little by little, and I think now it’s my favourite season.
How could I ignore her? In September we go on our beach holiday (the water is perfect, the weather is not so hot like in the summer days and it’s not crowded), the markets are full of fresh fruits and vegetables and nature’s colors are insanely beautiful.
Also Autumn reminds me of this particular dessert that my grandmother used to make for us- the Plum Upside-Down Cake, a very easy and refreshing sweet, that you can enjoy next to a hot cup of tea on a chilly Autumn evening.
Enjoy!
