Pumpkin Season Everything but not PSL!

I know I have said this but I love Fall, especially October!  It's the weather, I love snuggling under the covers in the morning because the windows were open all night.  I love needing that blanket on the sofa while you read a book, I love crisp, crackling fires, and I love the season for baking and cooking.  Sunday is my fun cooking and baking day (when I can.)  Today (and its 2pm as I type this) I have baked pumpkin muffins with a cream cheese addition, banana muffins with a hint of coffee and cooked a pot of pumpkin chili *.  I also have egg-free pumpkin muffin batter ready to be cooked.  I lot of pumpkin you might think? well yes, I even purchased the dogs' pumpkin dog food today....what's funny is, I don't like PSL much at all, the smell, the taste, not a PSL fan....but I am a fan of PSL season, different pumpkins of all shapes, sizes, and colors, the house smelling of baked goods, warmth, and love.
Yes, the kitchen is the heart of the home.  I pour a lot of love into that area of my home and my life and it feeds my loved ones and that makes me happy.
Fall just seems like such a great time to gather, to be reminded of what we love and who we love and bring them closer.   What is your favorite fall recipe? or tradition?  I have included links to the recipes for the above-baked goods, that I may have tweaked but are in no way my own.

Pumpkin chili doesn't taste like pumpkin but flavorful, nutritious and a great color, add some cayenne for spice!

*Some Sundays I cook nothing and feel like I get nothing done, this was a great Sunday for me, the kind I aspire to have not my every Sunday   -Lo


Oh I love me a PSL but man pumpkin muffins sound amazing! Who knew they had dog food! That is so neat! And good for them. Love, Ro
