fall begins

so, ive been in the mood too bake...and today being the first day of fall, what better way to celebrate it than with some pumpkin whoopie pies! mmm!
oh heavenly little yummy delights! so light and fluffy
i got this recipe out of one of those recipe books you get at the grocery check out.. i really like it.. but i think i would either add more pumpkin(might change the consistency though??) OR add some pumpkin spice to it?.. overall.. very yum, light and fluffy. YAY fall!

on other randomness of my day.. the kids and i had running club this morning. oye.. the morning always comes too soon.  but somehow we managed to get out of the house and to the school. what a great surprise it was to feel the cool breeze and the LACK of humidity! wooohoo!  i think it made me run faster???  i only ran a mile.. but it was an 8 minute mile.. HELLO?! if you know how i run, you know i run slowwwwwwwly.  and i know me.. and know that theres no way in heck i couldve followed it up with a second mile at that pace-haha:) but hey, just gonna celebrate my teeny accomplishment.  so.. after the kids had their breakfasts..and i took lio to school i passed havanas  http://www.havanacubanfood.com/  remembering the conversation i recently had with jennifer about havanas breakfasts, i turned the car around and headed for the walk up counter.. this is what i ordered.. MMMMMMMMMM!  breakfast egg, cheese and uhmm bacon. hello bacon- you are delicious and i love you..  



needless to say, it was pretty filling and i was unable to finish(for all those locals- great sandwich to share with a friend! ) 

so from me to you..wishing everyone a happy fall.  i hope you get to breath in some crisp air, drink at least a few glasses of hot cider and walk through some rustling leaves :)
