Pumpkin Love....

It seems like everyone is pumpkin crazy this year.  Everywhere you look there is pumpkin spice something for sale.  From the Pumpkin Spice Latte to pumpkin ice cream to pumpkin candles.  Pumpkin is everywhere!

Some of my favorites:

The Pumpkin Pie ice cream from Safeway.  We tried it for the first time last year and I am hoping that I can find it again this year.  The graham cracker crust pieces swirled in the pumpkin ice cream give it a truly authentic pumpkin pie taste.  Safeway also had a pumpkin yogurt last year that was super tasty.


Pumpkin Spice LiquidCoffee-mate Pumpkin Spice Creamer.  Move over Starbucks.  This is the perfect way to easily recreate the PSL at home.  I have actually never bought this because I don't buy creamer but I have a friend who buys it (for me, perhaps?) and when we are at her house scrap booking it is my creamer of choice in the fall.  Maybe one day I'll purchase my very own!


Pumpkin Spice CoffeeGreen Mountain Coffee Pumpkin Spice K-cup.  The smell   brings everyone in to the kitchen when this is brewing.  I fell in love with this one last year and plan to stock up this fall.

And a few I'm eager to try:

 Thomas'® Pumpkin Spice English MuffinsThomas' Pumpkin Spice English Muffins.  Although I haven't seen these at stores here yet, I'm hoping to be able to try these this fall.  Imagine one of those with your PSL - yum!

Pepperidge Farm Pumpkin Cheesecake Cookies. Pumpkin & Cheesecake together?  I'm in.  With that combo, there's really no way they can be bad.


HERSHEY’S KISSES Pumpkin Spice Flavored CandiesPumpkin Spice Hershey's Kisses.  I admit I am a milk chocolate kisses kind of girl.  I don't care for most of the new flavors but this one has caught my interest and I will definitely give them a try because you just never know.

What pumpkin products are on your shopping list?

I am all over anything pumpkin! Pumpkin spice coffee and creamer, yum! And I was looking for those kisses, because I saw a recipe for cookies that uses them. I'm going to have to make them for my Thanksgiving cookie platter! Now your post has made me hungry...

We love the Pepperidge Farms Pumpkin Swirl Bread. My 3yr old son is crazy about having his PB&J sandwiches made with it. Soooo good. I have also seen that they have a caramel apple swirl bread. I need to find that, too!

YUM, I love pumpkin. One of the best parts of Fall! We don't have any Safeways nearby, but I want to try everything else now. I love Panera Bread's Pumpkin Spice Latte. When I went back to get another one a day later, the cashier said, "Got you addicted, huh?" XD

Changes...

I posted some photos of my living room a while back. I realized how blah and boring it looks. I appreciate the suggestions I was given. One of them was 'paint'. We had the walls painted a couple years ago so I really didn't want to do it again just yet so I had to figure what else I could do to get some color in there. I thought about painting a canvas red to match the chair ( below). After talking to my sister she suggested dipping cool whip containers in paint to make the circles and an idea was born. I bought the 3 canvases (20" X 20") at Michaels at 50% off - the three cost $21. I got a quart of paint at Lowe's ($12 - Martha Stewart's Cranberry something or the other). The blue paint was a sample size of Olympic that someone didn't buy -$1. Cool whip container and little round container I had in the kitchen - free. Fleur de lis printed off computer, traced on canvas and painted - free. So for $34 I got this new look. Very David Bro...

Should I stay or should I go...

In December (the last day of school before Christmas break) Little Miss came down with pink eye. It was her first bout with it but I was pretty sure it was contagious and the school nurse confirmed that and suggested that she go straight to the doctor. Easier said than done, apparently. LM has been going to the same pediatrician since she was born. She has been for all her scheduled checkups to this same doctor. I have only had to take her ONCE in almost 8 yrs for something other than a checkup (she had swimmers ear when she was about 2). I am not one of those people who call for an appointment every time she has a sniffle. Apparently, that doesn't mean anything. At least not at Dr. O's office. I call in the late morning to see if LM can get in for her (contagious) pink eye. The receptionist says WITH A STRAIGHT FACE 'let's see, we can see her on Jan 6th.' OH, apparently she didn't hear me say she had pink eye. Yes, she heard me and then babbled on abo...

Lunch Box Granola...

Image
LM's teacher gave her class an extra credit assignment for math last week.  It was a cooking assignment which helps the kids with fractions.  They had two recipe choices and she picked the lunch box granola.   I have been wanting to make granola for a while so I was happy she chose this one.   She made a list of everything I would need to buy and I headed to the store while she was at school on Friday.   $16 later , I had the missing ingredients.  I was a bit shocked that some of these items cost so much.  I felt like we just bought a grade! All the ingredients ready to go. Recipe Fresh out of the oven. The finished product. LM did everything herself except put the cookie sheet in the oven and take it out. She emailed a picture of it to the teacher and turned in a paragraph about it on Monday.  It turned out delicious and I know I'll be making it again, using up the ingredients I bought.  I don't think I'll ever buy granola again ...
