A part of me feels like we should just rename Fall "Pumpkin Season." Does anyone else consider it officially Fall when you can start buying pumpkin spice lattes? Today at work, a colleague and I were discussing our love of pumpkin, but how that love can sometimes turn to hate if our favorite giant squash is not used correctly. So far, here's what I'm excited to make with pumpkin this Fall:
PUMPKIN PIE CHEESE BALL. I don't even know how I know about this. Someone must have described it and I must have made a mental note. You mix a can of pumpkin with 8 oz. of softened cream cheese, then roll it into a ball. Coat the entire ball with cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice, then dive in with some ginger snaps.
PUMPKIN DIP. This dip from Carolina Charm looks like a winner.
and especially...
PUMPKIN PIE POP TARTS. Because, wow. It's about time THIS happened.
What pumpkin items are you excited about this Fall?

Pumpkin Spice Lattes, of course, but also pumpkin scones from my favourite bakery (Cobs). They're SO much better than the ones that Starbucks makes. I'll probably be stocking up on those tomorrow. ;) Another favourite is my aunt's pumpkin soup and pumpkin pancakes. YUM! Now I'm totally craving all things pumpkin. :)

I just found at the grocery store THOMAS' PUMPKIN ENGLISH MUFFINS! They are so yummy but only available for a limited time. I may have to stock the freezer :)
