Pumpkin Muffins
Muffins are a light, tasty snack that are good for both kids and adults. This recipe we found from Rhian’s Recipes not only sounds delicious and simple to make, it’s also vegan and gluten free so it can satisfy a wide range of dietary needs. Baking is always a fun activity involve the kids. Using caution of course, sitting on a beautiful kitchen counter helping mom or dad mix ingredients is a classic memory that many adults have from their childhood. Get to baking and let us know how these delicious muffins turn out!
Iced Pumpkin Coffee
Are you one of those who loves fall-inspired recipes but you just can’t pull the trigger until the weather cools off? If that’s you, try this amazing pumpkin iced coffee recipe from Babaganosh! This recipe has less than five ingredients and sounds like a refreshing way to enjoy the taste of pumpkin while also staying cool. And with school back in session and the to-do lists never ending, mama and daddy may really appreciate the caffeine in this recipe!
Fall Décor
Time to pull out the fall decorations and have your kiddos help you choose where to put them! A great place to start this is on your kitchen island so you have a space to lay everything out and remember what fall décor items you have from the previous year. If you have kids, get them involved by telling you which décor items are their favorites. Maybe place their favorites in the main area of your home. Something to save for later is this article from Refined Rooms that explains an easy way to organize and store your holiday décor items so packing them up and then pulling them back out is always a simple process.
We love hearing how you and your family make memories together at home. We also love working with people to help them design their dream kitchens to make those memories even more enjoyable.
