In The Air

Pumpkin Gingerdoodle Pie 02
I did it. I found a little joy this weekend, the joy that had been lying dormant. I baked…a lot. Well, a lot for me as of late. And not because I felt I had to just because I wanted to. It felt nice.

I’m going to guess that part of my mojo is back because it’s here. That nip in the air. The crispness that only the fall morning can bring. I realize that not everyone is getting it. When I lived in Phoenix it didn’t show up until the end of October, sometimes November. But here in the Seattle area fall is saying hello and I couldn’t be happier.

I’m a different person in the fall and winter. I feel more alive. While many people live for summer, I live for this time of year. I feel more connected to nature (perhaps because my allergies go away and I can actually breathe 🙂 ). All I have to do is step outside and take a deep breath and I’m invigorated.

I see fall bucket lists all over Pinterest and I think I need one of those:

Go to someone’s house to watch football. Not watch football but eat my weight in chips and dips instead.

Spaniel snuggle. The more and more the temperature dips down the more and more my pups seem to snuggle. I cannot sit on the couch or lay in bed now without MSF on me.

Husband snuggle. MDP has been super sick this week and I have had to avoid him in hopes of not catching it myself. I really miss snuggling with him now that the blankets are out.

Teach my husband to bake with yeast. He expressed interest just before summer but we never got around to it. So I contacted Red Star Yeast (since I use their product) to see if they would sponsor a few posts and they said sure. So if you fear the yeast you need to follow along with MDP as he learns. Cooking with my husband is one of my favorite things so I can’t wait for this!

Watch a ton of hockey. Duh. What I won’t be doing for a while sadly is playing hockey. Major sadness.

Make a couch fort and binge watch movies. Yes, I’m 10…plus 33. Now convincing the husband he wants to do this. 🙂 I know the dogs will want to.

And of course bake. And make stews. And roasts. Which leads to today’s recipe. Back in 2012 I made Pumpkin Gingerdoodles which were a cookie that was a pumpkin snickerdoodle and a gingersnap combined. They were insanely good. So when I saw a recipe for Snickerdoodle Pie I decided to make it into a Pumpkin Gingerdoodle Pie…I’m glad I did.

What’s on your fall bucket list?

    I am envious of your energy, but at the same time so happy you are finding it returning in spades of brown sugar.

    My bucket list for fall:
    1. Find someway to find hope and resilience as a full time caregiver.
    2. See family again.
    3. Build a support system for other significant-other caregivers.
    4. Travel again.
    5. Make a far better (more entertaining) bucket list.
    6. Feel alive again.

    I’m happy to hear that you’re feeling a little better and have gotten your mojo back. This pie looks very tasty. I don’t have a fall bucket list yet, but apple picking is definitely on there, as well as a lot of baking!

    I love fall and the cooler air. Sunshine and colorful leaves make me one happy chick. I understand how baking and summer just do not go well together. It is so much more than the kitchen being hot. The heavenly aroma of something yummy drifting from the oven fits perfect in my idea of lovely fall day so bake away. I am intimidated by yeast so as I follow along, may learn some confidence. Thank you for sharing with us because you show me the way to have confidence.

    Excellent list! I’m excited about the sponsored posts with Red Star….Maybe MDP and I can conquer our fear of yeast at the same time 🙂

    Your pie looks delicious!

    Is this more like a cookie? or custard-like? Just curious about the texture…soft? chewy? crunchy? any wisdom greatly appreciated.
