Pumpkin desserts not pies

So we all love pies, but in case you want to try something else, here are some fun and festive Thanksgiving Dessert Ideas that are not pies.

Hello Friends!

What a week this has been an eventful one with the time change and the elections. It always takes me about a week to adjust to the time change. I usually wake up too early and just am not able to get enough sleep.

We are on to the Holiday countdown. Thanksgiving and Christmas are making their way into my home in the form of decorations and shopping.

I am especially excited for a few days to just unwind and refresh.  I will be hosting Thanksgiving and am grateful for time with my family. Time is such a valuable resource and free days are the best.

    I'm not a huge pie fan, although I love whipped cream.
    So I really love this! Give me some ice cream and some Apple Pie Pumpkin Pie Cookies any day.
    Happy Thanksgiving, friend!! I'm thankful for our long blog friendship.

Hi, I'm Raquel! I am a self-proclaimed foodie and have enjoyed cooking and baking since I was little. I loved baking cookies with my mother and grandma as a child, and later making dinners for my parents to foster my passion while in high school. I also had a passion for organizing and keeping things tidy.
