Peter's Wife Was One Lucky Lady!

So, maybe having your husband put you in a pumpkin shell doesn't sound too appealing to the average person, but think of all things pumpkin you could enjoy in your new home!

Are you still with me? Or are you questioning my mental stability seeing that I envy a creepy nursery rhyme that has themes of poverty and spousal abuse?

Once October hits, pumpkin is on my mind 24/7. FYI...I tend to become easily obsessed with something- a movie/song/cereal/chair- and will go overboard using it for a month and then, just as easily, I'll lose interest in it for the next year or more.

Recently, I have been consuming large amounts of pumpkin. Yesterday marked my first pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks (it was tasty, but surprisingly a little too sweet for me. Don't get me wrong, I'll still be ordering it for the rest of the fall!). Later this morning I'll be going to brunch at our favorite spot and know that a seasonal squash treat will be featured on their menu and ordered by me!

Overall, the best thing so far has been the pumpkin cupcake with maple frosting from Cupcake Royale. In one week's time I've consumed them on 3 separate occasions and am sure I'll be back for several more before they're gone on October 31st!

By any chance are you now craving pumpkin? I am!



The needed sugar and caffine rush needed to keep me awake past 8:00 on a Friday night.

It looks like I'm pausing to give thanks for this cupcake. I actually had just dropped some of the frosting and was contemplating if the 10 second rule applies to cafe tables!
