    I love both the recipe (looks fantastic), but also the thoughtful way you approach food as so much more than physical sustenance - truly lovely 🙂 I'm so glad to have found your site as well - I need to brew a cup of tea and just sit with it for a cozy hour (or two!) warmly, Andrea :: Crafting Connections

    For the longest time the only way I cooked with pumpkin was in pie, not any more! Your muffins sound just perfect, Catherine. Thank you so much for sharing...

    Hi Catherine, It is not Fall until I can smell the aroma of pumpkins in muffins, pies, or cakes. Great recipe! By the way I love your plates that you present your recipes on. Just beautiful and colorful as well. Thanks for the recipe...Blessings Dottie :o)
