Pumpkin Bread

It cooled down! Finally!

I am so excited! It hit high 50's yesterday and the first thing I did (after my happy dance) was pull out the cookbook and bundt pan.

I should say, I do not enjoy pumpkin spice flavored ANYTHING! I will not judge someone who does, it's just not for me. Pumpkin bread however I am a big fan of. I took a trusted banana bread recipe and subbed pumpkin for banana and it worked perfectly.

I had to eat some before I took a photo I couldn't help myself.

Here is the recipe! Enjoy 

Pumpkin Bread

2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups sugar
1 cup mashed pumpkin
3/4 cup oil
3 eggs (lightly beaten)
Preheat oven to 350 and grease bundt pan. Whisk dry ingredients together. Mix wet ingredients. Mix wet and dry together. Pour into pan and bake 40-45 minutes.

BBC says farewell to Great British Bake Off in a dramatic move to channel 4

The Great British Bake Off has left BBC and joined Channel 4. With millions of loyal viewers, many people seem to have concerns about the switch. For anyone who has never watched Great British Bake off, let's give you the rundown. Great British Bake Off, or GBBO as it is fondly known to many, is a British baking competition which brings in amateur bakers and selects the best one through a process of elimination. If you have watched a show such as MasterChef it is the same basic premise. GBBO, moved from BBC to Channel 4 for selective reasons. While these reasons are being guarded, it has been rumored that money was one of the leading reasons for the switch. While BBC offered a good amount of money, it simply was not enough and Channel 4 swooped in and purchased GBBO for 75 million.   When GBBO was on BBC there were no commercials. While many people are used to sitting through commercials while watching TV, faithful BBC viewers pay extra to not watch com...

Practice makes perfect!

So my sons 4th birthday is coming up. We're throwing him a party at Chuck E Cheese.  Oh Boy. I love to see my son happy, as does every mother, but Chuck E Cheese still makes me cringe a bit. Ok, a lot. But I am going to make him his cake of choice. He has a very hard time making decisions, something he gets from me. (Sorry Kiddo!) But, he has finally chosen. A blue and orange cake (like the Broncos!) with candy on the top. Lots of candy, and lollipops, not small ones big ones. Kids are very particular. I found this cake video on Facebook and it had a method that I wanted to try, so I made a cake last night. No direction and no thought behind it besides-practice. I came out with a watermelon cake 😂 The method was to put different colors of cake batter into piping bags and pipe alternating dots around the pan. I thought it turned out pretty well and will use the method for his cake. And the watermelon frosting, well, that just kind of happened 😂
