Like the kind of thunderstorms that wake you up in the middle of the night and you feel like it struck your house. The hubby slept through it but it got my heart pounding. But finally we are starting to see cooler fall like temperatures. I can’t wait to break out the sweaters and boots! I knew that I loved this recipe even before I made it....

Pumpkin Mug Cake If you love mug cakes and everything pumpkin spice, you will love these pumpkin mug cakes. My daughter Madison can’t get enough!

Roasted Tomatoes Burrata Pasta with Pesto is essentially Spaghetti al Pomodoro con Burrata e Pesto.

Instead, I decided to toss the pasta in roasted tomatoes and top with dollops of pesto and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. The end result is incredibly flavorful. It’s a summer pasta dish not to be missed....

For these cupcakes I used a cake mix and doctored it up a bit. That’s my favorite way to do cakes or cupcakes. It’s simple, but the cake still tastes rich and dense.
