October Pumpkin-Fest

Two weeks to go and then October will be here. I am committed to my 31 days of pumpkin. I took the plunge and jotted down my 31 post ideas. Plus a few extra in case some don't quite pan out.

31 days is quite a commitment for me. I am hoping to get a bunch typed up and saved so that I won't really be stressing out in front of the computer every day. I would hate to grow bitter towards pumpkin.

I am doing okay with my new school blog, The School Lunch Box, but I hope I am not trying to take too much on. 12 posts a week is quite a bit when I think my total in the last year wasn't that high.


So come back in two weeks for your pumpkin viewing pleasure.

In Love with Pumpkin

Fall is just around the corner. Can you guess what I am most excited for?

PUMPKIN

That's right.

I am hoping to join up to the 31 days of blogging in the 31 days of October. Do I love pumpkin that much? I think I just might.

So I am going to spend the rest of this month gathering all things pumpkin, as well as stocking up on canned pumpkin (because I just don't feel motivated enough to make my own pumpkin puree).

I spent 2 hours yesterday cleaning my "new" oven (because we moved 2 weeks ago). I just need to touch up a few spots with some Arm & Hammer toothpaste (thank you Anna), and I will be set.

And on a side note, if you live in my neighborhood and would like to enjoy some pumpkin treats, let me know because I may soon have an abundance.
