As the weather warms up here in New England, it's the perfect time to give your wardrobe a little spring refresh. After months of layering up, our favorite basics—like tee shirts and tank tops —can start to show signs of wear. Whether it's stretched-out necklines, faded colors, or mystery stains that just won't budget, spring is the ideal season to replace those go-to pieces.

Should I make them from scratch or can I cut corners one more year and by the break-and-bake kind?

Despite the lingering questions, I know one thing for certain. I will torture myself by peeling fresh chestnuts, likely cursing the entire time. Then I will proceed to make my famous Apple Chestnut Stuffing.

In honor of the occasion, I'm sharing the recipe for my stuffing on the blog again, this time with updated photos. If you haven't tried this recipe before, then I encourage you to give it a whirl this Thanksgiving. The apples add a subtle sweetness to the dish and the chestnuts provide a lovely contrast in texture.

Baked in the bird or in a baking dish all on its own... either way, it'll be delicious!
