Officially Fall...in my book anyway

Well its techinally not official until the 22nd but in my book it is FALL. All the stores have their fun and festive fall decorations (which of course I had to get some). And the best thing is all the pumpkin food, drinks, and flavors all around. I started the weekend off right with a pumpkin spiced latte and that really got me into the mood for more pumpkin. So I decide to do some baking since it has been a while. What to make was the big debate. I wanted something pretty quick and easy. So I visited my favorite food blog and found a recipe for pumpkin cupcakes that was quick and easy. Plus from my shopping adventures I had some super cute cupcake tins that I had to use. It was the perfect saturday afternoon recipe. The house smelled absolutely amazing!! I couldn't wait to dig into these delicious treats.

I think next on my list is making a trip to total wine to load up on pumpkin beers. Of course I will have to hit up one of the great american restaurants to get a growler of their pumpkin beer. I am totally obsessed with pumpkin and fall. The weather has been very comfortable all week. We have actually had our air off which has been really nice. It is great to go outside and not sweat to death.

After getting some pumpkin beers I will have Mike take me somewhere to pick out our personal pumpkins. Last year we were so busy with the new house and traveling that we did not get pumpkins. So I am excited to get some this year. Not sure Mike will be able to top his carving job from 2 years ago. They were pretty awesome! I guess Louie will also need a new halloween shirt.
