More fall...

[kelliem]

Another thing I like about autumn... the cool weather makes it possible to bake without dying of heat prostration. Today's total: 2 loaves of pumpkin nut bread, a tray of pumpkin nut muffins, and a pumpkin pie. I was just going to make pie, but the only can of pumpkin I had on hand was a huge one so I had to do something with the two cups that were still left after the pie, hence the muffins and bread. We also carved our jack-o-lantern, a traditional goofy-evil face, and then made pepitas with the seeds. Those things are crack, I tell you.

I still owe theamusedone some almond cookies because I discovered I didn't have any almond extract on hand. Must shop before I can do that batch.
