Happy Friday! I love the freedom that comes with Fridays and the free time available on the weekends that I am able to celebrate life with family and friends. Today I wanted to share with you some a few things I am loving lately!
First of all, I am loving all the "pumpkiness" that is around. The pumpkin treats, pumpkin shakes and pumpkin beers all just taste so great this time of year.
Other things that make me smile include all the Halloween decor and baked treats. I am going to decorate some pumpkins this weekend and I cannot wait.
I am also loving baking with pumpkin. You may recall I recently made a pumpkin mug cake and Pumpkin Pecan Cookies. I have also incorporated the flavor of pumpkin in a few breakfast items.
I am especially loving all the fall cooking and baking shows on TV too. As you know I am already a big fan of shows like Masterchef and Holiday Baking Championship. Well, when I saw that my friend Ashlee is currently on the Halloween Baking Championship on The Food Network, I was so excited so I taped the series! I do not know if she wins yet because it is still on and she cannot say, of course, but I hope she does! Ashlee is a cake chef and blogger, and she just did an interview on Blab the other night with my friend, Melissa Reyes, and you can catch that podcast here.
