Pumpkin Chiffon Pie with a Triple Gingersnap Crust. This recipe for Pumpkin Chiffon Pie is a classic that was handed down from my grandmother to my mother and then to me. With only minor tweaks in spices, cookie crust, and the use of agar agar in place of gelatin to keep this a vegetarian dessert, […]

Nutella Stuffed Pumpkin Bread.    WOW I’ve had a long couple of weeks! Like I mentioned before, the web series I’ve been working on, Door to Door, premiered on Tuesday. We’re shooting another episode this weekend (which will be a blast), and this past week, due to a goal fulfillment agreement, I tried my hand […]

Pumpkin Spice Popcorn.  I am overjoyed by the potential that the weather is cooling down. I can’t even tell you how ready I am for soup and hot chocolate days by the fireplace. I live for rain and blankets and cozy candlelight. It’s the time of weather that allows me to catch up on my […]

Pumpkin Butter Stuffed Pumpkin Spice M&M Cookies. I really can’t believe that pumpkin season is already upon us… But it is! This year, while searching for early Halloween decorations, I stumbled across Pumpkin Spice M&M’s. YES! Can you believe it?! I couldn’t. Since I’m a sucker for anything pumpkin spice flavored, I went ahead and […]

Ginger Molasses Thumbprint Cookies I have been dying to try out my own version of a ginger molasses cookie for years. Seriously, years. For some reason, I thought this was going to be a very daunting task, but it wasn’t! And as soon as I had the idea to turn them into thumbprint cookies filled […]

Tah-dah!!! It’s pumpkin time! I find it amazing how many pumpkin recipes we all have to share, and all of them quite different from each other. I only have 2 or 3 to share with you this year, so I promise not drown you in pumpkin– This particular “recipe”, however, is the easiest freakin’ appetizer […]

Last week I discovered the most delicious combination of flavors that resulted in the chewiest, most addictive cookies I’ve ever tasted. At least that’s my opinion. I literally ate 9 of them by myself. Don’t tell. I was inspired by the season, by Halloween, and by my visit to the Hodges Farm Pumpkin Patch. I […]

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Spice Cake with Maple Cinnamon Glaze. It’s almost Halloween and fall is finally coming to Charlotte. The weather has cooled down significantly (at least this week it has), and a few of the trees in the neighborhood are finally changing color. I’m not sure why fall is holding off like this. My […]

How can I resist decorating with these beautiful things) and pumpkin recipes everywhere! I’m sure some people are getting a little tired of the pumpkin recipes and […]
