ode to pumpkin

As I smell my Yankee Pumpkin spice candle (thanks to my lovely sister) and think about what to make for Nana's Thanksgiving dessert...I begin to dream of the loveliness of pumpkin....

Pumpkin Pralene Pie, Gingersnap Pumpkin Parfait, Pumpkin cream cheese spread, and Pumpkin Charlotte...




I am thinking of some new and fun ways to use pumpkin this Thanksgiving season. I love baking. It makes me feel so warm, creative and house-wifeish. I enjoy nothing more than baking for people and watching them enjoy the treats I have made. Here are some that look yummy...
Pumpkin Tiramisu



Pumpkin Spice Cake with Caramel Cream Cheese Frosting... YUMO



Pumpkin Pie Creme Brulee

Need I say more?? Now which one to make....suggestions welcome... :-)

I have been wondering the same thing, I am in charge of the pumpkin dessert as well. I do have a pie crust, but I looove trying new things and plain old pumpkin pie sounds boring!
