Ah ha! Found my way in in.
Okay, started off simply and old school with some Candy Corns yesterday.
Well, unless you include the piece of leftover homemade "harvest potpie" from the weekend - pork, acorn squash, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, kale, and cranberries tucked in a buttery flakey crust, topped with apple/caramelised onion gastrique (think sweet, vinegary drizzle). Lovely.
On to the next...0 -
Yum! Would love to do this with the pears from my tree! Is that an 8" flour tortilla?Ok... got something.
Cinnamon sugar tortillas topped with baked cinnamon sugar apples, Edy's caramel delight ice cream, and caramel sauce. 310 calories of happiness.0 -
Yes, brushed with butter and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar and baked for 5 minutes. So good.0

Day 2: I went out to Trader Joes and Target and grabbed a few things so I can make sweet potato cupcakes and caramel apple cupcakes this weekend, and picked up some of these as well.
They're pretty good. Nice and spicy soft cookie with creamy cool cream cheese icing; I feared they'd be overly sweet but they aren't. I love spice cakes/cookies this time of year.
Still on the lookout for apple cider. Back in PA the farmers market would sell it so I'm gonna hope the same is true in CA and hit up the neighborhood market tomorrow.0 -

Update on the Pumpkin Spice Oreos....
They're fantastic. Like... seriously fantastic.0 -
Just came from Walgreens, where I bought a variety of Russell Stovers pumpkins. I don't really care for much that's pumpkin flavored, so pumpkin shaped will have to do.
Also got some s'mores candy corn to try. 0 -

I'm in the same boat as Acrylics, not a pumpkin fan.Just came from Walgreens, where I bought a variety of Russell Stovers pumpkins. I don't really care for much that's pumpkin flavored, so pumpkin shaped will have to do. Also got some s'mores candy corn to try.
Regret to say that today for the first time I tried candy corn (I know, I know) and I didn't like it. However, smores candy corn sounds appealing.
In my experience Smores candy corn does not taste like smores. It's not bad (but then I like normal candy corn so take that as you will) but it is not 'smores'0 -

That's like the candy corn M&Ms. They're good, but they taste nothing like candy corn.0 -

Don't waste your money on the Candy Apple M&Ms either. They only had a tiny bit of an apple taste.0 -
I love pumpkin for about a month then I got sick of it... Speaking of which, I made pumpkin ricotta pancakes this morning. Yum.
Not going to do the daily challenge though, I don't like Fall flavors THAT much.0 -
Dunkin Donuts Pumpkin Cake donut.....I'll be on the elliptical a little longer to work it off haha.....but I'd give it like a 6.5/10.
Anyone try the Pumpkin Pie donut yet?0 -

Day One: Pumpkin Spice CoffeeMate Creamer
Day Two: Pumpkin Spice Gelato and Toasted Almond Gelato. Great combination... the pumpkin spice gelato by itself was a little much. The toasted almond balanced it perfectly.

I have a confession. I don't like candy corn. There. I said it. I feel much better.0

I found pumpkin Joe-Joes, pumpkin pie mochi ice cream, and pumpkin gingersnap ice cream sandwiches at Trader Joe's today. That should last me the weekend.0

Day 3: I made caramel apple spice cupcakes and a caramel...glaze. See, it was meant to be an icing but I got kinda heavy handed with the caramel (while my husband hovered behind and said crazy things like 'I think that's enough caramel. No seriously, that's enough.') and...glaze.
