Today is the first day of October, 2012.
What a perfect day to start my blog about my favorite things, in my favorite month! What I love about October is that it's "officially" accepted to use pumpkin and sweet potato in anything and EVERYTHING you want! I haven't baked with pumpkin much, but I do make a killer pumpkin cheesecake, which will be possibly one of the first postings I share since Thanksgiving is right around the corner! Not only does baking with pumpkin make me excited its October, but also enjoying drinks that taste like pumpkin. I'm sure it's everyone's guilty pleasure in the fall, the addicting Starbucks Pumpkin Spiced Latte which, of course must be accompanied by their amazing Pumpkin Scone, which I will be attempting to duplicate this fall! Stay tuned!

Birthdays!
And to top it all off, at the middle and end of October it is all of my sibling's and my birthdays! Mine is first! October 11th is the best day, it usually falls on the Thanksgiving weekend, which I'm sure my parents planned, because they're so thankful to have me as their youngest :). And as strange as it is, my brother Dacen was born on October 23rd and Shelsea was born on October 27th! We must have thankful parents! Or... there must have been some pretty cold winters back in late 80's.
