Is there some sort of fall holiday that I am ignorant of for the English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish, Manx, Picts, Italian*, et cetera, to gather and chow with the family over the harvest ?
* i’ve hears some people in the UK say that their family can traced to the Roman invasion so I count them as Italian.
On traditional foods at this time of year… you might throw a few baking potatoes into the ashes of a bonfire. Here in the North we have soul cakes and parkin.
