Pumpkin Patch Fun
Our pumpkin patch was this week, and we took the little sweethearts to pick some pumpkins and take some great photos. They mostly cooperated and loved the unusual pumpkins. But the sun was super bright. But we got a couple good pictures none the less. And the tractor was a big hit. Got to switch […]
Pumpkin and Sausage Penne

Menu Plan Monday
As I am planning this week’s menu I am still recovering from our 10 year high school reunion last night. I had such a blast and ending up partying till the wee hours of the morning (5 am). And yes I am feeling it today, I am definitely not 18 anymore. But I would certainly […]
Fall Garden planted

Pumpkin Blondies
I wanted to try this recipe since last year as I included it in my pumpkin round-up. I made it last week for our play group and so glad I did because I could have eaten the whole pan myself, they were moist, chewy and pumpkin-y. Just about everything you could look for in a […]
Menu Plan Monday
It’s pumpkin time again in our house, and I am desperately thinking of recipes and new ideas, it’s so bad in fact that I heard there could possibly be a canned pumpkin shortage, so every time I go to the store I pick up at least 4 cans. Obsessed much?? So far I think I’ve […]
