Fabulous Food Friday #97

Technically it's not autumn yet, but I am sure I'm not the only one that wishes it would be here sooner! Not only do I wish for cooler days, cute cardigans and any excuse to make a pot of soup, but I wish for those fabulous recipes using pumpkin. You either love or hate pumpkin and I happen to be a person who loves it! So I thought, "Why wait?" All month long I am going to post recipes using that funny orange pumpkin!
