We Got a Pumpkin!

On our way to a birthday party on Sunday we got detoured when we spotted two large pumpkins at a produce stand on the side of the road.  While we didn't get either of these large pumpkins we did get a (more conservatively sized) pumpkin.

When the Mister and I got to the birthday party we had a great time spending time with family and friends.  We snaked on party favorites like cake, cotton candy, and popcorn! ... and we got some cool balloon creations! Good times.

Five Weeks of Pumpkin!

Today is the first day of October and the countdown to Halloween has begun.  To countdown the weeks til Halloween, and the upcoming Holiday Season (I will go into more detail about Holiday Season in a future post) I have decided to try a new pumpkin recipe each Sunday for the entire month of October.  I'm not exactly sure which five recipes I will try but what I do know is that I'll need a lot of Libby's pumpkin mix!

Last November Libby's had a canned pumpkin shortage due to bad weather and a depleted back stock; I don't want to take any chances I will be left pumpkin-less so I'm heading to grocery store to get some pumpkin and the ingredients in Pumpkin Crunch, the Mister's favorite pumpkin dessert.
