December 1, 2011 by 7 Comments
I just finished the last bit of Pumpkin Spice ice cream from Edy's. It's indeed a sad, sad day. You may be asking why. Well, here's the thing. I have a bit of an obsession with pumpkin.

The day before Thanksgiving, crazy me, went into Stop and Shop … [Read more...]

I know I will soon find it. But right now it's time for me to get down and dirty and figure out what our … [Read more...]
