    Wow it's quiet here. I guess everyone has given up? Oh well, only one day left anyway.

    Man, I had such a hectic/busy day today! I had an ultrasound, went out with hubby for lunch, carved 2 pumpkins and went to my daughter's school for "monster math" night. Then I came home and washed all my pumpkin seeds and now I have them drying out to roast tomorrow. I logged a Hershey's kiss Pumpkin spice.... but... I'm gonna have a milky way caramel apple mini instead, lol. I'd have more, but I had Taco bell AND pizza today... so.... heh... yeah.....

    Tomorrow will probably be literally nothing but candy for "dinner". lol! At least I'll get some exercise from taking the kiddo out trick or treating :open_mouth:

    I've pretty much given up. Lost the will to bake. *single tear*

    Today I had the last gingerbread cookie.

    I gave up on tracking it every day. Christmas goodies will be much easier.

    Oh no Amber :(

    If Acrylics has lost the will to bake then the world is a sad, sad place indeed....

    I haven't given up but I must admit, I didn't do much (if any) baking or cooking during this challenge like I thought I would and mostly just ended up falling back on my pumpkin spice creamer and the oreos...

    I did get a gift of pumpkin pecan butter last week that I haven't cracked open yet because I haven't had many spare calories or any good ideas of what to eat it on...

    I admit also, I didn't do much baking. It was mostly readily available bakery/packaged stuff, lol. Christmas will be a different story though, lol.

    Day 31: Pumpkin Spice Oatmeal and a whoooooole lotta candy. :D

    What do we want to do for Christmas? Shall we do a holiday challenge for, say, the week of Thanksgiving through Christmas? 6 weeks instead of a month?

    Sounds good to me.

    Yesterday had two Pumpkin Mellowcremes (eh not as good as I remembered), a Reese's Cup, & some ice cream.

    I think that would be perfect, and I'm expecting our recipe/sweet thread to go crazy with all the holiday baking.
