Officially Fall!!!

I have this thing each year that it's not "officially" fall until...

Punkin' Pie!!!

It's always better with whipped cream... :-)

Enjoying it with special people...

The "long awaited" bite!

Fall is my ultimate favorite season. I love the colors, the leaves, the smells, the memories! But, I never really consider it fall until the first pumpkin pie is made! It is definitely a comfort food to me whether because of its rich creaminess, its bright orange color, or its cozy smell! I love the atmosphere of watching mom make it and adding the different spices to the mixture, each with their distinct scents and tastes! I love eating it after it has had time to chill in the refrigerator, with a small glass of milk! I love the special moments!!!
