It's a very wet and chilly evening tonight and I decided I needed to have a fire in the woodstove!
It nice and warm now. I have company coming by on Thursday afternoon to see my cottage and my grand baby. I will be babysitting this weekend so Otto will be here. He will be 2 months old tomorrow.
I have been looking through my recipes and will be doing some baking tomorrow. Jim will be coming back soon and I know he will enjoy a few fall goodies too. I do believe I need to bake something with pumpkin. I made a pumpkin bread a few weeks ago and that's always a hit around the Colantino's.
I'm going to make this soft pumpkin drop cookie with a cream cheese frosting. Looks soooo good.
Have you ever wondered what is in PUMPKIN PIE SPICE? Have you ever run out of it and didn't want to rush off to the store? Well, I looked it up and you can make your own. It's always nice to have fresh spices for holiday baking.

Hello from Spain: pumpkin pie is very appetizing. I love it. Interesting recipe. Keep in touch
Oh Linda. Those look delectable!
So you will have your little Otto on the weekend! Overnight? Wowsers, if yes, that'll be a challenge!
I take care of my baby granddaughter from 7 a.m. til 3 p.m. , Monday-Wednesday. WOO HOO! Keeps me young! She's one year old now. Susan
My mouth is watering just thinking about pumpkin bread and all those delicious baking spices. Thanks for the recipe for pumpkin pie spice. You'll have to research and share "allspice" with us next. :-)
Have a wonderful weekend with grandbaby Otto!
