Happy Friday! Here’s the Stuff I’m Into lately. Pumpkins. I love anything having to do with pumpkins. I love decorating with them, big ones or small ones. I love pumpkin scented candles. I love pumpkin food. I could start off with some Pumpkin French Toast for breakfast, then follow it with Pumpkin Bread for a snack and then end the day with some Pumpkin Snickerdoodles for dessert. It’s a pumpkin food fest. Of course we cannot forget about THE drink of the season, pumpkin spice latte. I’m totally in love with Starbuck’s pumpkin spice latte. When I want to be at home in my PJs …
Oatmeal Cream Pies
Mmm cookies. My husband loves Little Debbie’s Oatmeal Cream Pies. For the record, he really loves almost any cookie (my kinda man), but lately he’s been on a Little Debbie food kick. Thankfully I’m not easily tempted by her cookies and brownies. I’m more of an Entenmann’s kind of girl and I have no will power when it comes to “E’s” cookies and doughnuts. My husband pulled some extra long hours at work last week so I thought that I’d bake him something special. Maybe something like a Little Debbie treat? Insert evil laughter here… Sandwich cookies are cool. It’s like getting two cookies for …
Spinach Pie (Spanakopita) Chicken Quesadillas
Who doesn’t love a quesadilla? You can make a bazillion different kinds of quesadillas and they’re mad easy to make. I bet you’ve whipped up some before. What kind was it? Was it a hit? No really, I’d love to know because I’m always looking for more interesting recipes to make. 🙂 Like any good Greek girl, I love spinach pie (aka spanakopita). Last year I was inspired to take the flavors from it and turn it into a low carb dinner. The result was a delicious Spinach Pie Spaghetti Squash dish. The spinach filling was so delicious that my husband …
Pumpkin Snickerdoodle White Chocolate Chip Cookies
Are you guys sick of pumpkin foods yet? I hope not because I’ve got another good one for you. I had two out of three failed recipes over the weekend. That’s not good odds. So what do I do? I bake cookies. The failures were probably a blessing in disguise because I need to start baking cookies for the holidays. Yes, I start this early and freeze them. I bake dozens and dozens of cookies and baking them ahead of time is really the only way to go (unless you want to bake for 9 days straight… all… day… long… not ideal). …
Pumpkin Spice Latte
I’m celebrating Halloween week with pumpkin spice lattes and orange nail polish. Can you believe it’s almost Halloween? It felt like just yesterday that I was in a bathing suit sipping a prickly pear margarita. Okay, maybe not literally yesterday, but it was vacation and it was hot in Arizona, so it wasn’t so long ago that it could already be Halloween. Could it? Pumpkin spice latte is THE coffee to have for Fall. Just ask every doughnut shop in your area how they feel about it. I happen to love it so I’d do what what any ordinary food blogger would …
