It’s Pumpkin Spice Season
It’s that time of year…. fall…. or pumpkin spice season, as some like to call it. I did a little research on the fall phenomenon that is pumpkin spice and was quite intrigued by my findings.

They are a guilty pleasure in our household because they taste absolutely amazing when drenched in butter 😊 We recently acquired some “baking shells” and though it would be a fun way to bake scallops.
