Nutmeg, If You Please

I love fall for so many reasons, but I think I start to be ruled by scents and flavors during the fall....isn't that weird?  I start craving things like a pregnant woman (precision of language...as if I were a pregnant woman :)...like the other day I was planning to meet Brad at Wendy's for lunch, but, before I knew it, I realized I was in the parking lot of Steak 'n' Shake.  On the way to Wendy's I started thinking about Steak 'n' Shake's fall S'Mores shake and SUDDENLY I was there.  "Uhhhh....Hi Babe....change of plans....I'm at Steak 'n' Shake." :)

I decided to say HELLO to fall by making some pumpkin ice cream....it was an experiment.  No, it wasn't homemade this time, (thinking about that makes me want to make some more homemade blueberry ice cream...YUM!) but, the pumpkin had GREAT FLAVOR too!  I cheated and picked up some...

And some.....100% pumpkin (use half the can)

....add a little brown sugar, as much cinnamon as you like...nutmeg, if you please :) and the softened Butter Pecan ice cream....blend and refreeze.....my family loved it (and it was SUPER easy)!

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT IS THE FIRST DAY OF FALL!.....REALLY? 

DOESN'T SHE HAVE THE PERFECT EXPRESSION?!
