I absolutely love fall because the food during this time of year is filled with fall spices like cinnamon, allspice, anise, cloves and nutmeg. Yesterday, my house was filled with these warm smells of fall.
For dinner, I made a pork roast seasoned with these spices. 
I cut deep slits into the roast and put slices of garlic cloves in them. I then seasoned the roast with allspice, ground cloves, anise seeds and a little bit of salt and pepper. I added water to the bottom of the pan and baked in a 370 degree oven for 3 and a half hours (may have to add extra water during the 3 hours). 
After this time, I cubed an apple and added it to the pan and added dark brown sugar in the juice made by the roast, as well as packed some on the top of the roast and covered with foil and let cook for another hour, or until completely cooked through.
To go with the pork roast, I stir-fried asian vegetables, (frozen fresh: carrots, baby corn, and broccoli) in a wok with olive oil. When the veggies were cooked, I added soy sauce and a little sugar. I then took about a teaspoon of flour and mixed it with warm water and then added the mixture to the sauce in the wok to thicken. 
I also made a box of rice pilaf, which my family loves as an additional side.
