Yum, pumpkin.

You know, I never know whether or not to treat pumpkin as a P3 or a P4 food. It works for some as a P3 food and for others as a P4 food. So I leave the decision up to you.

This is a really nice variety of flavors, and perfect for cold nights. It’s purposely been padded with a little extra fat in the form of butter, so adjust to taste.  Most awesome with a cold sweet dressing salad, then you have a whole variety of flavors your taste buds will thank you for!

Enjoy!

Thanks goes to Linda for tweaking […]

On the support group forum I belonged to however, they kept singing it’s praises and I finally succumbed. And I am glad I did! It was heavenly, and oh so filling! It kept me satiated for hours. Better than that, it was excellent cold, so I could make a few and keep in the fridge for those times […]

Recipe: Pumpkin Spice Latte

One of my very first experiences with Starbucks was my introduction to the Pumpkin Spice Latte.

I was out with a group of friends and it was a particularly cold day in December in Charleston, SC and the group wanted to stop at Starbucks. At the time, I was against anything having to do with SB cause I thought it was a waste of peoples money. Way too expensive, and really, what was the use. Coffee is coffee.

Boy, was I wrong. ::giggle::

What they neglected to tell me at the time was that it was a “seasonal” thing. Ok, sure, I […]
