Pumpkin Muffins

Brrrr...it feels more like Fall weather, rather than the end of Summer! So it got me in the mood to do some baking. Its been a long while since I have been in the mood to bake. While getting groceries on Friday, one of of the end caps they had a display of all Fall like baking goodies.. .pumpkin, some carmel apple cookie mix (I resisted the urge to buy these, next week maybe).

The house smells so yummy! I am off to go enjoy one while they are still warm!!


I did a video tutorial for you as well!
