my poor deprived children

Lest you think Aaron is a poor soul who doesn't get any sweets, here he is demonstrating how creative he can be once he's done with his favorite "peshial treat" which is Tim Horton's old fashioned plain timbits. (which is probably the least sweet of all the donuts, but still.)

I get coffee, he gets sweets...we are all happy campers. Even Evan, who gets some later. About 4 hours later. He likes donut and coffee flavored milk. Incidentally, it's fall, which means I'm having a grand time eating all manners of pumpkin flavored everything. I need to bake some pumpkin muffins now that I've visited Kara's blog and seen her scrumptious looking photos. I am also very disappointed that the Schwan man sold out of pumpkin ice cream before I got around to ordering any.

What's your favorite treat this time of year?

Warning - this is totally unrelated to your post. Does the sippy cup Aaron has on his tray ever leak for you? I really like that cup (Owen has the same one), but I hate that it leaks whenever he throws it. (Trust me, we are working on him throwing his cup. He just can't stand to have ANYTHING on his tray that he is not immediately using).

Kelly - I love this cup too! I find that if the valves aren't in all the way, the cup leaks. I did end up buying several replacement valves about 3 months or so ago and that seemed to solve the problem. I think the plastic on the old ones just wore down. The only place I've been able to find them is at Babies R Us. Hope that helps!

Pumpkin roll! You know with the cream cheese filling... it's so yummy. And pumpkin cake and pumpkin muffins, of course. :)

I just bought pumpkin ice cream my self from Dryers and it's pretty good.
My favorite ice cream is the peppermint.
This time of year anything pumpkin is nice.

pumpkin is one of our favorite flavors, too - almost ranks right up there with raspberries!

pumpkin smoothies are a nice alternative to ice cream, and super easy to make. we also like pumpkin soup!

Let's see... what am I craving this time of year... pumpkin rolls most definitely...and coffee with pumpkin spice creamer or caramel something or other creamer... and cold weather (even sixty degrees would be great) to enjoy the coffee and pumpkin roll in. :-) I've quit drinking coffee because it heats me up so much which isn't the great way to start or end the day.

I've never seen pumpkins here at the vegetable and fruit stands. Maybe I'll have to get my dictionary out and inquire about pumpkins here in Cameroon.
