    I'm definitely thinking we need a "holiday" challenge next-- maybe roll November and December into one? Or we could take a month off and then do December. I've had some good stuff this month but I'm not feeling too inspired at this point-- not being a huge pumpkin fan has made this challenge less enjoyable than usual for me.

    Yeah I'd probably not do a Holiday challenge for that reason... hate peppermint! Except in tea, but I'm not drinking it every day, lol.

    In other news, I participate in this monthly thing called Foodie Pen Pals and you get sent a box of food from someone else and you send them a box of food. My box this month had Pumpkin Fruit Butter and Pumpkin Spice coffee!

    PS - I love the idea of a holiday challenge!

    Went to Panera Bread for lunch today. They had a Turkey Cranberry Flatbread, so I got it, because I mean, come on, lol. I took the Spinach off because I'm weird like that and it was 250 cals (280 cal with Spinach) and had some Baked Potato Soup. So yummy.

    Also had Pumpkin Oatmeal for breakfast.

    ^^^^ Crumbly Coffee Cake Muffin looks incredible!


    I had a single Caramel Apple Oreo after cardio because they were sitting out on the kitchen counter. Sweetness bomb! Way too sweet for me, but if you have a sweet tooth, these may be the cure for what ails you. 70 cals for a single cookie though!

    Yesterday I went on a cooking and baking spree. Dinner was turkey, brie & homemade cranberry chutney sandwiches. Then for treats:

    Damn I was hoping it was this weekend also, we would have gone. I guess I'll just have to go to the 3 floor ice cream parlor in Brooklyn.

    Oh I want pictures of the ice cream parlor. Next year you and Dora can come for the festival and we can eat our way through :)
