Pumpkin Whoopie Pies
I have seen whoopie pies all over the foodie blogosphere for sometime now. I’ve seen them in chocolate, red velvet, and S’mores flavors, but it was the pumpkin flavor that sold me.

Spicy Baked Potatoes
My husband is very nice about letting me experiment in the kitchen. He likes how I like to try cooking new things. He never requests or asks me to make things. I told him that I wish he would like something so much that he would beg me to make it. Well, today he found…
