How to Roast a Pumpkin

Today I decided to bake up one of the baking pumpkins not sure what I will do with is yet but I will be sure to show you :)

When I first looked up how to bake them it said on a cookie sheet then I decided to look further and found this one that makes more sense to me.

I took it a step further and figured since it will be in the oven why not add some pumpkin spice to the water to make the house smell like fall :)

Do you have any favorite pumpkin fall recipes that you would like to share with me?

Pause, Ponder and Prepare Advent Devotional

I was recently asked to help with a project for the Pause, Ponder, and Prepare Advent Devotional.  Diane and Bernice are getting ready to share with you all.

See my Advent Journal here,  I'm the one that made the simple journal version and can't wait to start the study :)  Your welcome to join!

I am also going to try and post some crafts to go along with the devotional my thought is to make a different ornament each day to add to my Christmas Tree this year.  If you would like to receive the emails with instructions and ideas of the ornaments that I make you can sign up on my website.

Watercolors and Turkeys

Finally was able to do a little crafting today after a few days of getting sidetracked by life. :)  I love being in my happy place.  I have been inspired lately with watercolors.  I love the way the paint does it's own thing.

I have been wanting to start entering craft challenges and this is my first one.
I used two of Paper Smooches free digital stamps to make this turkey card.  I used watercolor paints for the turkey and sign.   I love the way it came out simple yet cute :)

I look forward to using more of Paper Smooches products.
