Pumpkin please!

This post may be a bit "out of season," but it is the result of a craving from last week :) so please enjoy.

I LOVE PUMPKIN.  I have had the pleasure of trying pumpkin granola, pumpkin pie, pumpkin roll, pumpkin crumble, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins, pumpkin bagels, pumpkin cupcakes, pumpkin frozen yogurt, pumpkin ice cream, pumpkin cream cheese, pumpkin greek yogurt, pumpkin seeds, pumpkin gum balls, pumpkin scones, pumpkin butter, pumpkin pancakes (every time I go to grandma’s house), pumpkin caramels, pumpkin truffles, pumpkin coffee, pumpkin biscotti, pumpkin creamer, pumpkin lattes, pumpkin smash smoothie, and pumpkin beer.  If it's pumpkin, pass it on over!

And I’m going to share my favorite pumpkin chocolate chip cookie recipe with y’all!
