Rice krispies

So, I am a little behind, having an 11 week old can do that to a person. Some days I am lucky he let's me brush my hair let alone cook... but I did make pumpkin rice krispies... and they tasted really good...much better than the ones I made last year which were hardly had a pumpkin... but the texture was wrong. So next year I will use the same general approach but switch it up. Wish me luck at getting this week done. Hopefully one day soon having five minutes to cook will get easier... and my blogs more interesting!

Pumpkin cheesecake

Okay, so last weeks pumpkin treat was indeed cheesecake.... and the on I picked was too fancy! Don't get me wrong it was delicious... but too much work to make for the taste. I also would have loved a plain cheesecake! Next year we will do it differently!

Cookies

Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. I love pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, they are the first pumpkin item Tyson and I ever made together... though we do not use that recipe anymore because it was SO super sweet.... I don't think I could eat half a cookie. This year I went with a cakeier cookie and it was awesome! Not too sweet, lots of pumpkin flavor. I was super happy!!

Book switch

Well, I am a bit disappointed in myself and my own boredom... what happens sometimes is there will be a book I really want to read and I will start and them because of the place I'm at in my life life I can't focus on it if it switches characters too often. I don't care how important to the story the others are I'm interested in the one I started reading the story for. I'm going to have to switch books, read something else for a while.... because while I really want to know how this trilogy ends I just don't cars about these other characters and there is enough stress in my life I want reading to be fun not work to get through them... so I will have to find another book and come back to this one day in the future. Wish me luck in picking a new book!!

Pumpkin crumb cake

So, I'm a few days behind but Saturday I did indeed make my pumpkin snack for the week. A pumpkin crumb cake, and I was soooo much happier with it than my cookies! I rather quite enjoyed it. I think I made it a bit darker than I would have preferred but it was still well worth it and next year I could make it even better!!
