Pumpkin Pudding Cake

For all of you who loved this blueberry pudding cake that’s in my arsenal,  here’s an autumn version- Pumpkin Pudding Cake! This cake is a cross between a bread pudding, a pumpkin pie, and a tasty doughnut.  It also kind of reminds me of my favorite thanksgiving sweet potato dish! 

 

Magic happens when you pour hot water and on the brown sugar nut mixture on top of the batter; you get the tastiest brown sugar glaze. 

I shared some with my neighbors because it would have allllllll been gone if I had it in my kitchen long enough. So good!

Intentions for the Week

Looking to get your head in the game? Tracy from Shutterbean makes a weekly TO DO LIST called her Intentions for the Week. Here's what this week looks like:

Intentions for the Week – Week 42 of 2020

Happy Monday! Here we are! Another week. I can’t believe we have 10 weeks left of 2020. That’s wild! This weekend we went to a small outdoor (distanced) party for my friend. I also went for a walk with a friend and did a little bit of meal prep (not enough to warrant a photo apparently) and rested. I might have been a little peopled out!  Let’s see what’s coming up this week as we write down our Intentions for the Week!

My Everyday Life Week 41

Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 41

Cooper went to school in person 2 1/2 days this week!  It was such a surreal experience. 

It was so weird to make him lunch again! I tucked this note into his lunchbox. 

Meal prepping in motion.

I chopped up a bunch of garlic in my mini food processor for my meal prep.

Caught them together!

Watching the sun go down.

Red Curry Shrimp

Hi, it’s me, your friend who has a new recipe for us to make. If you like curries, I bet you’ll like this simple Red Curry Shrimp I made this week. This is a curry that gets better the second day and that’s PERFECT for meal prep/leftovers. With all the working from home, dinner leftovers make work lunches so simple. 

 

It’s also pretty versatile- you can play around with the vegetables.

I think sweet potatoes would be good in there too! I’ll try that next time.

Hooray for another dinner to add to the rotation!!!! I was getting pretty bored for a bit.
