My roommate, Claire , laughs at me because I have a special way of addressing the name of my favorite gourd. I don't say that I love pumpkin. Rather, I say that I love THE Pumpkin. It's deliciousness is certainly worthy of an extra article (:
The Pumpkin is alive and well in the Shuler/Borne home. For the past two weeks, I've made pumpkin oatmeal for breakfast. I have canned pumpkin as a side dish at dinner. Soon, I will whip up a big batch of Spicy Pumpkin Chili for my school lunches. And I even found Kashi pumpkin spice granola bars, as well as these awesome little pumpkin chocolate chip cookies yesterday at Target. Yum. Oh, and let us not forget Starbucks' Pumpkin Spice Latte in all of its delectable glory.
There is even evidence of The Pumpkin in our living room, dining room, and kitchen in the form of decor. More pumpkin-ness will be on display after my visit to one of Flower Mound's many Pumpkin patches.
What can I say....except that The Pumpkin makes me happy and I love how I can see, taste, or smell it everywhere I go.
Fall is so, so great (:

Wow friend, I had no idea...can't say that i love pumpkin as much as you, but I got a little pumpkin for our front entry way. I'm just scared to put it outside because I think the maintenance man will throw it away. :(
Thanks for introducing me to the Pumpkin Spice Latte last night...I can't believe I haven't enjoyed it before.
(Check out my sister's blog for more pumpkin goodnes...there is a pumpkin bagel and pumpkin squares which are delicious!)
Be careful! I'm sure that, similar to carrots, if you eat too much pumpkin you could turn orange. I'm just sayin'... :)
