Loving fall!

Well welcome fall!  One of my favorite times of year!  Even though we are going to have unseasonably warm weather this weekend in New Hampshire, I can't help but start looking ahead and thinking about fall and the wonderful yummy crock-pot meals and pumpkin delights that I so enjoy in the fall.  Pulled down my fall pumpkin serving dish this morning.  I was hoping to make something pumpkin-y this weekend to share with my coworkers on Monday.  But I just realized that my boss will be out on Monday and Tuesday so maybe I will wait until Tuesday night to make some goodies to share and bring to work on Wednesday when the boss returns.  He loves the goodies we bring to share with him.  I just love this serving platter below and can't wait every year to pull it out and use it during the fall season.

I think I bought it at a CVS store at some mall years ago.  I just happened to be walking by and noticed it on a clearance display at the front of the store.  I fell in love instantly!  But when I flipped it over and noticed it was only $5 - well - just had to buy it!  Pumpkin bread, rum cake, pumpkin whoopie pies, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies all have graced this serving dish.  OH I might just try to whip up a pumpkin rum cake this year and see how well that goes over with friends and family.  I just love when I pull this dish out each year and think about the goodies I will make to display on it and the people I will share those goodies with.  Will you be one of them this year?
