Craft, Create, Celebrate Life
I am cutting a big pumpkin today and making pumpkin roasted seeds, pumpkin bread, pumpkin cookies etc.
I can’t wait to smell the aroma of fresh baked goodies in my home today 🙂
Will post pics later with smell a vision

Seeds ready to be roasted

Pumpkin bread, couldn't get the picture before someone got to it 🙂
Have not done the cookies yet, still going to bake those though.
Would rather be crafting today, but I have to do the house keeping. No way to get around it has to be done. 🙁
Ah later will be crafting some and doing more baking 🙂
Here is a homemade chocolate box for my friends birthday. I hope she likes it, I am going to visit her tomorrow.
Above is the closed box and then the open box, yum. Now I will be temped to eat them 🙂
