Pumpkin Bread! One of my best friend's moms, Miss Pat, gave us her secret Pumpkin Bread recipe, which is absolutely amazing! I didn't really even like pumpkin things until I had this bread! I have started making it every fall. This year my mom also bought me this cute loaf pan that makes the bread mold into she shapes of pumpkins and leaves...so cute! The picture doesn't do it justice. The best part of the bread is the yummy caramel icing on top. I think I might go get a piece right now!
I love being around a fire on a cool night. Last year, for Kevin's birthday, my parents bought him a chiminea. We love building little fires in it and sitting on our patio with our dogs. Here we are enjoying the first fire of the season with Chris and Jill, Kevin's brother and our sis-in-law. Our nephew, Fred, enjoyed burning things in it before he had to go to bed. We burn sticks and branches out of our yard, so it helps keep our yard clean too!
This is one of my favorite fall smells, my Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Wallflower. If any of you are looking for good fall scent, this is it. It smells just like you have a pumpkin pie in the oven. Yummy!
