Autumn is in full swing here in AK and my heart longs for pumpkin delights night and day. This recipe that I got off of Allrecipes.com I have made twice this week. My little guy has had fun eating them for breakfast. Yes, I will probably get the mother of the year for that one!
Enjoy!

Yes - it is finally pumpkin time! I have notices that for most bloggers this is their favorite time of year. I wonder why that is...
These look so good! And nothing says fall more than pumpkin.
