It’s fall…and that means it’s pumpkin season!

If I wasn’t already aware of that fact, just a few minutes in the supermarket would be notification enough. Pumpkin spice has taken over! 

It’s just so exciting to try all of the pumpkin and pumpkin spice versions of our favorite foods. (I didn’t buy the pumpkin pasta sauce this time, but there’s always next week. Last year, I mixed it with an Alfredo sauce, and it was delicious!)

I’m trying some new pumpkin-flavored foods this year including the pumpkin spice oatmeal, yogurt, and almonds. They are all surprisingly delicious! (They even have pumpkin spice Jell-O…I was a bit undecided on that one. If I can think of a good recipe that calls for it between now and next week, I might try it then.)

I’m trying my best to pace myself with all these pumpkin foods, but it’s hard to do when we know these goodies won’t be around for long. Each time I go to the store, I find something new that is pumpkin-flavored to try. It’s almost as much fun as going picking for real pumpkins!
