Welcoming autumn with fall comforts

I am sitting here drinking coffee and enjoying a piece of zucchini coffee cake that a lady from our church district dropped off here for us. It is delicious, and I would like to ask her for the recipe. I do hope it doesn’t have many calories!

For most corn and soybeans crops, the rain is probably too late but it may help on late or double crop soybeans (planted after wheat) and for new wheat or cover crops being planted this fall. Of course; fruit trees, lawns and other vegetation needed the rain.
