Fall is my favorite time of year...the smell of the fallen leaves, the crispness of the air, and of course the plentiful pumpkins! There are just so many things you can do with a pumpkin...my kids love to carve, draw on, or glue sparkly bits all over it to create a beautiful masterpiece. I feast on breads, muffins, pancakes and other yummy baked goods made with this beautiful orange gourd. And, we can't forget toasting the pumpkin seeds...the aroma of garlic oil and spicy black pepper coming from my oven makes my mouth water.
So, other than the fact that it is tasty and pretty, what else do you really know about it? Here are a few facts for you to whip out at your Thanksgiving feast to wow your guests!
Now that you are smart enough to wow your family on Turkey Day with your pumpkin knowledge, are you going to head out to the pumpkin patch and pick a peck of...pumpkins? If you do, what are you planning on doing with them? Are they destined for a pumpkin soup or are you going to let your kids put on Mr. Potato Head parts and let it adorn your dining room table?
I absolutely love fall for all the pumpkins! I could eat pretty much anything with pumpkin lol
My favorite season is Fall because you have Pumpkin Muffins, Pumpkin Spice Coffee, Pumpkin Bread, Pumpkin Pie, Pumpkin Latte's, Pumpkin Candles!

Fall is the best time of the year!
