It’s officially fall! Technically, that happened on September 22nd for the rest of the world, but for us Southern California folks, that didn’t happen until about 3 hours ago, honestly. Even so, our sunny fall days don’t stop us from joining the rest of the country in it’s favorite time of year… Pumpkin Season! With...
