I am craving all things fallish right now and this hot chocolate sounds like a great way for me to get ready for Thanksgiving day. Pumpkin Pie White Hot Chocolate from Closet Cooking
3 cups whole milk
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/8 teaspoon cloves
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon vanilla
4ounces white chocolate (roughly chopped)
pinch salt
1. Heat the milk, pumpkin puree, and spices in a sauce pan until it just starts to simmer and remove form heat.
2. Add the chocolate and stir until it has melted.
3. Pour into mugs and top with whipped cream and garnish with cinnamon

Bits of heaven

I'm really looking forward to making these suckers. I've already got the bacon and dates. Unfortunatly my husband had been struck with the flu and he'd kill me if I made them all for myself. Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Medjool Dates from Closet Cooking

16 medjool dates


gorgonzola cheese (i'm going to hopefully use manchego cheese )


8 slices bacon (cut in half)


1. Cut the dates open along one side and remove the pits.


2. Stuff the dates with their filling and wrap each in a slice of bacon.


3. Place the bacon wrapped dates into a baking pan with the seam of the bacon down.


4. Bake in a preheated 425F oven until the bacon is cooked and slightly crispy, about 12-16 minutes, flipping once in the middle.


5. Let cool and enjoy.

Tumbling

So I have to admit, I'm not so good at putting together long cohesive posts. I'm far too scatterbrained for that. So I set up another tumblr account with interior inspirations. Go take a peek:

That's crazy

This house is on Arlington Ave, which I've been over there a few times and I would not say it's a bad neighborhood. Somehow this house is for sale for only $27,900! 2bd 1ba 807 sq ft. Hardoowds under the carpet. It even has a garage. Maybe this could be my art house...

Slow morning
