Pinterest

This child does not look 2 months old.  I'm not quite sure how old I think he looks, but I really can't believe how big he is and how quickly he is outgrowing things.  I also try and see if I can see myself in him, but he pretty much always looks like a mini Jesse.

Onto another subject.  I like to get inspiration for house projects and clothes on the web, the newest craze is pinterest.  I'm sure most of you have heard about it, but when you find pictures you like, you can pin them onto a virtual board and it links you back to the original posting on the web.  The other day I was about to create my own pinterest account when I ran into a slight problem.  You see you have to have a facebook or twitter account to sign up.  I do not have either of them, and really don't want to.  But I'm pretty sure Jesse doesn't want me to hijack his facebook account to save a bunch of style and decorating items....people might get the wrong idea about him.
And if I had a pinterest account I would be sharing this pumpkin recipe with everyone through a link.  Instead I have to try and copy everything and post pictures in order for you to see it.  But I love the fall and all the great apple and pumpkin recipes so here is the first one I want to try.

Pumpkin Dip
16 oz. light Cool Whip, thawed out
1 (5-ounce) packet of vanilla pudding (instant)
1 small can of Libby's pumpkin - (15 oz.)
1 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

In a large bowl, mix together pudding, pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice and vanilla. Gently stir in Cool Whip.This takes about 5 minutes to get the mixture smooth. (After mixing, I usually stick this in the refrigerator
for a while before serving it.)

Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Chips
Flour tortillas (I used about 7 large tortillas) and holiday cookie cutters
1 Tbsp. cinnamon
1/2 c. sugar
Butter flavored Pam cooking spray

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix cinnamon and sugar together in a bowl. Use metal cookie cutters and a cutting board to cut your tortillas into desired shapes (use leaves for fall, gingerbread men, trees, stars, etc. for Christmas). Place them on parchment or foil-lined baking sheets.
Spray all of the tortilla cut-outs with butter flavored cooking spray on the top side that is facing you.
Sprinkle them with cinnamon sugar mixture.  Lightly spray again with cooking spray to make sure the cinnamon sticks.
Bake for 10 minutes, or until lightly browned. Place the chips on racks to cool off. Serve with Pumpkin Dip.
