Perfect Pumpkin Pie With A Time Saving Secret
I am a bit of a pumpkin pie snob. Canned pumpkin (or squash in reality) is just not as good as the real thing when you get down to the business of making pies. I have tried to concede over to the time saving merits of canned pumpkin when making pumpkin pies, but it just doesn’t taste as good. It …

Simply The Easiest Instant Pot Pumpkin Pie Puree
Last week I bought a pie pumpkin to use for my Holiday baking. I love using fresh pumpkin for my pies, because it really does tastes so much better than canned.

DIY Easy Jack-O-Lantern Felt Play Set
My youngest daughter loves felt play sets. Over the years we have created pizza felt kits and ice cream felt kits for her as they help to entertain and keep her quiet for times like when we are at church or elsewhere. Last week on a quick stop at our local craft store she zeroed in on the Fall colored …
Air Fryer Pumpkin Empanadas
I admit to being hesitant to jump on the whole air-fryer band wagon, but Jen’s Guy was fully enamored with the idea of them and has been wanting one for quite some time. So like the old married couple we are, a few weeks ago to celebrate 21 years of marriage I gifted him an air fryer. My previous hesitancy …
