It's that pumpkin pie for breakfast time of year again! This year I have yet another peter, peter pumpkin eater with rosebud lips to feed. Eliza loves pumpkin pie! Okay, Eliza loves just about any food you put in front of her, well, except biscuits. She doesn't dig the biscuits.
More for me.
Do you know the best part about the most recent pumpkin pie I made? The pumpkin was free! I got five pumpkins from the library - no, they aren't on loan - they had made up a psuedo pumpkin patch for the storytime kids to walk through and pick out a pumpkin in. Judah and Eliza each got one pumpkin, but then because of the excess we were able to take one more for each of the kids. This means LOTS of pumpkin in my freezer for muffins, bread, and pie all winter long. Yum!
It's also that "fall back" time of year again. This first day of gaining an hour always feels to me like the absolute longest day of the year. Technically that particular day is in June but I would beg to differ. My goodness! I thought bedtime was never going to come. I am one tired girl. It probably doesn't help that we packed a whole lot of living into the last two days. But, it was a nice weekend with plenty of good things being accomplished. In fact, as of now you can walk from one end of our garage to the other without risking life and limb doing so. And if you think I am joking I can assure you I am not. Our garage was a death-trap.
Well... my eyes are burning and I keep finding myself staring off into space so I am going to wrap this day up. See ya tomorrow!
As an aside: I'm pretty good about posting nearly every day on here but just for kicks I joined in on the NaBloPoMo (on my sidebar). Joining means that I must blog every day for the month of November. I'm up for the challenge - are you? Let me know if you joined in also; I'd love to be NaBloPoMo buddies with you!

Oo, thanks for a recipe that doesn't use canned milk! I was looking for one. Definitely gonna try that one. Wyatt will totally eat this for breakfast, too, lol. I'm thinking about doing that NaBloPo thing. Hrm, will have to check that out when I have more time.
Your pie looks good and I'm glad you had a nice weekend. Our weekend with family comes in the next two weekends...Scott has worked the last two. But that is okay too. Life is good..
we watched a movie to get them to bedtime without a fight :) time changes are NOT for wimps!

I'm doing NaBloPoMo too. :)
I'm with you on the longest day of the year! My kids woke up "early," and I was literally counting the minutes in the last hour before bedtime!
You never fail to surprise me with your breakfasts and dinners. You have two of the BIGGEST FANS on the Planet here in Oklahoma. My Crumb Snatchers want to move to New Mexico and be adopted by the "blogger-lady who spoils her family ALL THE TIME"!!
I have enjoyed watching their faces when I've served dessert for dinner...and now, breakfast????
They will just melt...
Thanks for the fabulous traditions Mrs. Hub!
Ooh! this is the first time I've pureed my own pumpkin and it taste SO much better (sweeter, lighter) then canned! I made the most delish pumpkin oatmeal cookies/muffins with cranberries and walnuts-to die for. I LOVE all your recipes!
I made your pumpkin pie the other day and we just devoured it! I had to use canned pumpkin for that one, but our painted pumpkin is counting the days before it becomes a beautiful pie as well. I love pumpkin pie for breakfast!
that pie looks super yummy! i know this might sound weird but how do you make pumpkin pie from an actual pumpkin? i have always used canned.
good luck on blogging everyday in November!
I was loving 'fall back' on Sunday morning!
I've been on a fall baking and cooking streak, too. Lots of soups- tonight is Butternut Squash. I've never tried it before, so I thought 'no time like the present'.
I'm looking forward to pumpkin rolls soon, but pumpkin pie sounds yummy, too (the photo is enticing!). We just made apple sundaes this weekend.
I'm having to keep my running schedule up with all the wonderful fall comfort food we've been having.
Andrea, I just want to sit at your kitchen table for a minute.
I don't get it. How could the girl not like a biscuit? My kids never liked mashed potatoes as babies, still can't wrap my brain around that.
Time changes stink. Noah was in my room at 6. Ugh.
Im thinking of joining, but I am so not good at commitment. Other than the marriage kind, you know.
im in on nablopomo this year! last year i wanted to join in but didnt find out until later in the month as i was a rookie blogger. cheers!
I absolutley adore pumpkin pie! My grandma makes the best pumpkin pie and every time I come home, no matter the season, she makes it for me. I could eat that everyday!
I really want to do NaBloPo, but I think I'm going to wait until the next few hectic months go by. I know there's no way with moving coming up that I'll be able to do it. I look forward to reading your daily blogs though!
If they have figured out the friend glitch, we SO need to add each other over there.
We can do it!
I am with all of those above, that pie looks yummy!
That pie looks delicious!!!! i have been reading your blog after somebody linked to your Dessert for Dinner post a little while ago ( great idea) Just wanted to say hi and thanks for such a great read and loved your vblog as well.
When do you think you will hold your next V-blog?
I SO need a piece of that pie. I do believe I just might have to make that tomorrow. My family will love me and I will tell them it was all YOU! :)
