The leaves do not fall to their death
they are falling to start a new life.
Today
11 am- The colors on my street.
Yesterday
8 pm- I'd love to tell you this story.
I keep noticing the last things I do
as an unmarried woman ... my last
staff meeting, my last women's group,
my last copy editing class, my last
Wednesday where I work from home
while I catch up on laundry and baking.
But I'm not dying.
Far from it in fact.
Here's to new life!
And here's what I made today.
My own recipe "Pumpkin pumpkin cookies."
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup whole grain flour
1/2 cup Trader Joe's pumpkin pancake mix
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 heaping teaspoon of cinnamon
I avoid a mixer as often as possible, this recipe is easy to mix with a fork as long as you do the wet ingredients together first, then the spices, then the flours. Bake for 12 minutes at 350. Try not to eat all the batter.
awesome!
