Writer's Workshop - Pin Me


Pinterest inspired! Try something you saw on Pinterest and share the results.

My Pinterest feed
has been full of all kinds of 
pumpkin delights
lately.
And,
being a HUGE Halloween fan
I thought I'd try a couple. 

Here is the 
Healthier Pumpkin Spice Latte
I found. 

(Click on the picture to go to original site)
Now,
I don't have a pretty clear mug
to show off my creation.
(Note to self:
Buy some clear mugs to show off drinks)
I also opted not 
to add the whip cream.
I can already hear my trainer
bug me
"Why are you drinking coffee?
Didn't I tell you to cut back?"
The last thing I need is for her to bug me
"Whipped cream? Are you serious?
Does your coffee really need whipped cream?"


So now,
I have an open can of pumpkin
with two spoonfuls missing.
Obvioulsy I need to try something else.
Thank you
Pinterest!


It looked good.
And easy to make.
So how hard can ot be,
right?

Very easy!
And fabulous!
I made it for my son
to eat as breakfast,
but am not sure I'm willing to share.

Here's my version.


Have your tried any Pumpkin
treats?

Chocolate Fruit Leathers

Ethan has been loving the fruit leathers
I have been making.
He has been bugging me
for a few weeks now
to make chocolate ones.
I decided,
if he wanted them,
he could make them.
So he did!

Ethan chops the bananas


Blends them with cocoa
We have to add here, 
we used pure cocoa powder from
I LOVE their chocolate.
The cocoa is awesome
as there is no added sugar.

Ethan helped me spread the mixture out
onto trays
and off in the dehydrator they went.

Yes he loves them!
