October - the month of everything pumpkin!

I recently saw a picture on Pinterest that had a beautiful fall scene with words over it saying "I'm so glad I live in a place where there are Octobers". That's my feeling today. I love October. I went for a run this morning and the gorgeous overcast sky and cool breeze made mew want to run forever (my legs on the other hand did not agree). October. Pumpkins and pumpkin flavored foods everywhere. Eric and I will be feasting on pumpkin bread soon - a close second to my all time favorite breakfast of bran muffins. Here's a new take on pumpkin bread: try it with a little margarine, sliced bananas and honey on top. Your world will be turned upside down. I am making my first pumpkin pie this evening in celebration for Eric's birthday this week (Thursday!). Like most first time recipes, I call my mom numerous times for clarification and support. Thanks Mom!
