While I am not a fan of the cooler temps (and *gasp* the impending snow), there is one thing I do look forward to as fall progresses into early winter and that is the ushering in of one of my favorite seasons of the year- soup season








Honestly, we eat soup all year round in this house. But I definitely kick up my comforting and cozy soup game once the temperatures start to dip below the 40's on the regular.







I mean, what is better than a bowl of warm and creamy homemade soup when it is a cold and rainy (or snowy) outside? Not much else, folks. Except for maybe a mug of my Pumpkin Chai Hot Buttered Rum or a dish of my Slow Cooker Apple Butter Rice Pudding. ;)








This recipe for Chipotle Butternut Squash & Pumpkin Soup that I am sharing with you all today just might be the best fall-inspired homemade soup recipe that I have come up with so far for the blog. 




It is creamy & smoky, with a little kick of heat, and a touch of spice & sweetness. Everything you could possibly ask for in a fall-time soup!

A Sneak Peek At My Thanksgiving Dinner Spread #MyKindOfHoliday

How gorgeous is this display of Thanksgiving must-haves from Target??  I will take one of each, please. ;)


This will be my second year hosting my family's annual Thanksgiving dinner.  My first year was a little bit of a learning experience.  It was my first time ever roasting an entire turkey by myself.  It turned out well, but I am on a mission to roast the tastiest turkey ever this year.  
Last year I shared with you all a little sneak peek of my Thanksgiving dinner spread, so I thought it would be fun to post one again this year.  (And then next year and the year after... wait.  Did I just create a Thanksgiving Day tradition for the blog?  I think I did! ;) )
