It’s the Great Pumpkin (Recipes), Charlie Brown!

As a big pumpkin fan, I felt very blessed during the pumpkin shortage earlier this year to have cans of Libby’s pumpkin lined up in rows on my shelves. I had purchased them on sale last November. It was a lesson on how preparedness can help us to enjoy simple comforts, as well as sustain us in difficult times.

Canned pumpkin is a great addition to food storage.  It packs a nutritious punch, but (I have to be honest) I store it because I’m addicted to the spicy sweetness of pumpkin cookies, pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins, etc.  The aroma of anything pumpkin baking in the oven is almost intoxicating!  So, I was thrilled to find this fun site dedicated to pumpkin recipes. I’m posting it here for all of you fellow pumpkin addicts to enjoy as well.

The pumpkin shortage is over, so be sure to stock up on canned pumpkin for your food storage next month, while it’s on sale for Thanksgiving!
