Pumpkin Challenge: Day 28
Tuesday has been a continuation of the trying to cross out my to-do-list items. Tuesday has been a somewhat back-to-back sort of day. Tuesday was a day to combine my consumption challenges into one item! A desire to eat something sweet joined forces with a desire to clean out my system and the need to…

Pumpkin Challenge: Days 23, 24, 25, 26, and 27
In my defence, the Internet was inaccessible where I stayed this weekend. Then Monday was a bit disorganized and required attention to bring order back to my life. I don’t have any excuse for how Thursday was left out of the mix. Now it is Tuesday, and I can provide an update for each pumpkin…

Pumpkin Challenge: Day 16
Almost Friday.One more big push before the freedom of Friday. Not enough sleep, an emotional hangover, and a need for something to get me through the morning – what could help with all of these conditions?Pumpkin pie in a bowl.

Pumpkin Challenge: Day 15
A day late! Clearly, I am not on my pumpkin posting game. Yesterday seemed to carry with it a need for therapeutic baking, because three of the six people living in my flat decided to make baked goods at the same time yesterday evening! I certainly needed something delicious and melodic to soothe my busy…
