Autumn is coming! I am so excited! (Can you tell?! LOL) The crisp clear air, the sweet smells, and the beautiful fall colors. But boy oh boy, the food! What has to be the biggest reason that I love fall is definitely the food. It's harvest season, all the pumpkins and squash, persimmons, I could go on and on. One of my favorite things about fall is all the pumpkin stuff that is either only available during this season or just better right now. Blue Moon Pumpkin Ale, Pumpkin Pies, Pumpkin Spice Chai, Pumpkin Spice Candles! Again I could go on forever!As you can tell I love pumpkin, but I also love the spices that are generally used with pumpkin. Nutmeg, ginger, and cinnamon. These spices pair so well with my beloved orange behemoth that I find dishes like pumpkin pie to be pure Ecstasy. And it is now that I come to the point of this rambling. I have never made a pumpkin pie! So I make it my mission this harvest season to take advantage of the abundance of this wonderful squash, and try my hand at a traditional pumpkin pie!
Wish me luck! I'll let you know how it goes.
