Now that it's fall, though, I can feel the world slowing down. Things are getting a bit cooler, I'm busting out my scarf collection, and that magical flavor has returned.
Yes, I'm talking about pumpkin.
If you follow me on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter, you may have noticed my hashtag: pumpkinspiceeverything. I'm serious about it, too. Drinks, pancakes, bread, cookies, cakes, pie, coffee syrup, candles, body spray. I love pumpkin.
I started the season off with a pumpkin spice frappuccino and pumpkin bread from Starbucks (of course). It was like the heavens opened up and the angels sang their little hearts out.
(I also bought the new album from The Civil Wars. It's absolutely brilliant. Go buy it.)
I followed that by several more pumpkin spice drinks before busting out the canned pumpkin. The first thing I made was pumpkin spice cookies with my own little twist, and they were fabulous. The next was pumpkin spice French toast.
I wasn't able to get a picture of that, and I am so sad, but I definitely will next time I make it.
Pumpkin flavored breakfasts are a big hit at 314, so of course I had to make another one. On Saturday, I brainstormed a bit before coming up with this beauty.
Husband gave this a 9/10. This is seriously only the third thing he has ever rated this high, and we have been together for almost 5 years. That must tell you how good these are.
