With fall rapidly arriving in this last week of classes before Fall Break, it’s easy to get excited about all the awesome things we have planned. A whole week off with nothing to do – the options are endless! All the things to make! All the things to bake! All the crafts to do!

Whew…getting a little too excited here. It must be the warm Apple Cider running through my veins.

Because of all the fresh fruit that is so seasonally perfect at this time of year, it was necessary that the next edition guiding you to a perfect fall was a food edition – hearty meals that highlight our favorites like apples, pumpkins, and cranberries galore.

Hailing from eastern Washington, Julia attends the University of Portland in Oregon, as a Communication Studies major with an emphasis on Journalism. As a magazine and book junkie, Julia reads everything (and anything) she can get her hands on, especially those passionate on young adult culture and entertainment. A woman that gets stir-crazy easily, Julia has been fortunate to have traveled many summers in a row to foreign countries, including a study abroad course in Austria, Germany, and Great Britain. Since a ripe age, she has grown and cultivated her passion and dream of working for a magazine and spreading awareness as well as happiness through the tips of her fingers. Always finding time for herself, Julia can frequently be found quoting movie lines (most frequently Will Ferrell or Vince Vaughn), having a 90's dance party with her roommates, or rereading "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" for the 40th time.
