Pumpkin Spice No Bake Cookies

I don't want to go all pumpkin spice crazy on everyone, but I definitely enjoy myself some pumpkin spice. After seeing a picture of these gooey cookies on Facebook, I figured they would be a perfect fall-themed treat.
Yumminess!
I snagged the recipe from Once a Month Meals, so you can get the original here. My favorite part about no bake cookies (besides being pumpkin spice flavored) is that the girls can help make them!

First, we gathered our ingredients & supplies:
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup butter
2/3 cup milk
3 1/3 ounces of instant Pumpkin Spice Pudding Mix
1 tsp. Pumpkin Pie Spice
1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
3 1/2 cups Quick Cook Rolled Oats
waxed paper
medium sauce pan
silicone mixing spatula
teaspoon
wet and dry mixing cups
clean silverware teaspoon for scooping


Next, we began cooking:
1. In a saucepan, combine sugars, butter, and milk.
2. Bring to a boil and continue boiling for two minutes.
3. Remove from heat and add pudding mix to combine completely.
4. Add in pumpkin pie spice,vanilla, and oats.
5. Stir to combine.
6. Let stand 5 minutes.
7. Drop teaspoon sized cookies onto waxed paper and allow to cool.





Finally, (my favorite part) we devoured them!

February Festivities

This is the first weekend in a while where we haven’t really had anything going on, so the kids and I went crazy with the crafts and activities! Valentine Boxes First, we made the girls’ valentines boxes. Bah wanted a Valentine Monster, and Boo (of course) wanted a pig. I saved her pig from last year for almost the entire year but a little before Christmas she wanted to play with it and Bubs destroyed it. So we made a new one. They turned out pretty cute, and I love that as the girls are getting older they are able to help more. Valentine Gift -Denim Pouch After that, we decided to get some sewing in by making pouches as Valentines for our cousins and friends. We cut pieces of old denim and sewed them to create pouches. Then, the kids cut shapes and letters out of felt to personalize them. This project was much faster than I expected, so we even had time to make bath bombs. Valentine Gift - Bath Bombs My kiddos all love bath bombs or bath fizzies, and they were excited ...

With a chick, chick here...

I think I may have gone completely crazy. We just added FOUR more animals to our brood. Yes, you read that right, FOUR. Now, not only do we have a dog, a pig, and two turtles, we also have four chickens.  Bah is an animal lover - through and through. She is the pig whisper, worm charmer, and bug catcher. She has been asking for baby chicks for a few weeks now, and I kept telling her we had enough to keep us busy and didn't need any more animals. Then, her cousins got baby chicks and she (in her own words) just "couldn't stop thinking about baby chicks!" So after Boots and I had a long talk, we decided that maybe chickens would fit in fine with our little zoo. His reasoning was that he likes giving the kids responsibility and teaching them about where their food comes from. They know better than that food comes from the grocery store, but since we are not raising cows or meat-pigs, they do not have first hand experience with food-to-table animals. Therefore, w...

A season to be thankful

Now that Pumpkins and More A-maiz-ing Farm is closed for the season, we seem to have more time on our hands. With extra time, comes reflection. Each year, we try to begin the holiday season by getting into the spirit of kindness and generosity. This year, I decided to start a thankful tree. The process was really quite simple: 1. Get a branch from the yard 2. Find a large vase 3. Strip kernels off Indian corn for filler 4. Cut roughly 100 leaves from construction paper 5. Gather something to hang the leaves (I used fishing wire, but twine or ribbon would work well too) 6. Put the branch in the vase and use the corn to hold it in place Our Thankful Tree - the beginning Now each day, we will write something we are thankful for on a leaf and add it to the tree. By the end of November, our tree will be full and so will our hearts remembering all of the blessings in our lives. What "thankful" traditions have you started with your family? UPDATE: Trying to get caug...
