Fall means taking every recipe of mine and adding pumpkin purée to it. Pumpkin chocolate chip muffins, pumpkin bread, pumpkin buttercream spread, pumpkin oats, pumpkin mac & cheese…

While we are discussing pumpkin I feel like I should admit something.

I don’t actually like pumpkin.

But you guys do, and all my friends do, so I will keep making and giving away these recipes!

It’s not that I hate pumpkin, it’s just not a flavor I’m particularly fond of. Unless it’s a pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks, then I detest it. The first time I tried one of their psl’s I actually thought I was going to have to spit it out.

I’m very strange, I know. And now I’m rambling and doing that thing bloggers do to try to reach a specific word count for SEO purposes. Just being honest LOL.

Still haven’t reached it, so I’ll tell you what I am doing this weekend! I am pretty excited for the weekend. I love Saturday’s and Sunday’s in DC and have missed them so much while I’ve been gone.

Tonight I am grabbing dinner with my boyfriend at a new spot we’ve been wanting to try, which is always nice. Tomorrow morning I’ll hit an early morning spin class, then grab a coffee with my boyfriend, go to the farmers market, and hopefully get some donuts.

Shockingly I haven’t had donuts in a month – not okay!

After the farmers market, we will probably just hang around Old Town and maybe go to Georgetown to shop/do returns. That’s all I have planned so far but so looking forward to it.

What are you up to this weekend? If you are looking for something to do – try these pumpkin cookie dough bites! As always, LMK if you make them!

P.S. If you liked these, and love pumpkin, try out my pumpkin bread! I took my mom’s OG recipe and made it gluten-free and refined-sugar free.
