It's the first week of October, which means I exclusively cooked pumpkin things and I'm not sorry.
Pumpkin muffins, thanks to Miriel for reminding me about these. I made them with all white whole wheat flour so that my children would be less inclined to eat them all. It's working! |
Roasted butternut squash tacos. Also, if you object to my calling these "pumpkin," please refer to my family's favorite autumnal factiod. |
Definitely recommend adding live cats to your Halloween decorations this year, I find that it adds a certain what-exactly-is-happening-here quality that's hard to beat.
Yesterday Ivy was home from school with a fever, but it was the kind of sickness that responded well to medicine and caused me to have a very much perked up child by midday. This meant that every time I turned a corner I encountered these things attempting to trick-or-treat from me.
They made off with about $3 in change and a book of matches, I didn't really want to take chances with dead-eyed tricksters. |
