My Pumpkin Addiction

Okay.. So I have a bit of a Pumpkin addiction. I am lucky enough to have a Trader Joes close to home, as they love Pumpkin questionably as much as I do. They were out of the main products I wanted to try :/ But I got what I could! (I will go earlier in the season next year.) I never knew the employees there were so friendly. One of the stockers saw me oogling the Pumpkin Macaroons, and asked if I have ever tried one. When I admitted that I hadn't, she busted the box open and let me try them right there on the sales floor. WOW! They were delicious. I bought an entire box, and had to put them in the trunk to keep from eating them on the ride home. I must learn how to recreate these little morsels of awesomeness...

  1. I wish we had a Trader Joe's!! I have never heard of Pumpkin soup before but it sounds delicious.. did you try it?!? How was it? The Pumpkin Pancake and Waffle Mix has me wondering too.. what was it like?!? I never realized how many different foods came in Pumpkin flavors lol. I just bought a Pumpkin Spice Cappuccino today and it was delicious but I love Autumn because of all of the fall flavored items that come out :) Thanks for sharing the pic and I can't wait to hear how everything was!

    1. I have not tried it yet. I live in Texas, so it is still not quite "soup weather". (Although I got a little impatient and made CrockPot Minestrone the other day.) The Pumpkin Pancake and Waffle mix is amazing! Especially with Maple Syrup. If you are familiar with the brand Stonewall Kitchen, I have heard they make a pretty good Pumpkin Pancake mix as well. Might be worth a try! I never realized it either. I was beyond excited. It was my second time at Trader Joe's, they are popping up everywhere. Hopefully near you soon, the prices are unbelievable! The Cappuccino sounds amazing. I must find one of those now.. I hope you are having a wonderful evening!
