Here it seems you just don't always know what season it is! Just when it appears to be changing seasons, the weather reverts back. This fall, we've had beautiful weather with some rain but one day we may have 80 something degrees, the next day it's 60 something. Then 24 hours later it's in the 80's again. I prefer the weather to be more consistant!
Autumn is my fave season so I really want it to come and stay. Regardless, I've fully embraced everything that this time of year brings. I love the bright colors of the leaves, the chilly weather (when it's here, like today!), and of course PUMPKINS!! My favorite part! Right now in fact, I am boiling pumpkin seeds in salt water to prepare for roasting. In my house right now, not only do I have a pie pumpkin (grown in Prosser WA!) sitting on the counter BUT I also have fresh pureed pumpkin in the freezer, pumpkin spice milk, pumpkin pasta sauce, pumpkin spice Hershey's kisses, pumpkin spice coffee, pumpkin gnocchi, pumpkin spiced sparkling apple cider, pumpkin soup, homemade pumpkin spice cream cheese spread and pumpkin butter. Oh and pumpkin pie dessert shooters. Not only do I have the flavored food but I happen to be wearing socks right now that are argyle with pumpkins. My bathroom hand soap dispenser might also be pumpkin shaped.
Obsessed? Yes. Yes, perhaps I am.
This weekend I am going to try a couple more pumpkin recipes such as Sweet and Sour Grilled Pumpkin and Pumpkin Spiced Oatmeal Cookies.
Yummy!
