Pumpkin Chili!

Been meaning to write a post for a while but life got hectic! So here's a little of a catch up post. Been busy in the kitchen again, and we were craving some chili. I've cut back a lot on meat so he was ok with a vegetarian chili. I made this one before but it's been quite a while and I should make it more often, it's so good!

I got this recipe from my cookbook called Thug kitchen. I found the recipe online as well, and I absolutely love their cookbook, and their website is just like their book and I love it. Check out the recipe here.

I also saw a post on Facebook from Joyous Health about a London Fog latte and I had to try it, and glad I did, it was so good!

I did use my frother for the almond milk but I find when using almond milk it doesn't froth up very much but still turned out delicious! I had that with sprouted bread toasted with peanut butter and banana, it was one really yummy breakfast!

We also had a beautiful Saturday a few weeks ago so I went for a nice long walk and it was great! We have some snow now so trails would be wet so I'm glad I went when I did





 Last weekend, my friend and I decided to do some baking. We made biscuits and sugar cookies


The biscuits are two different recipes. The ones on the left turned out better. Not that the ones on the right are horrible, they just taste a little doughy.

For the sugar cookies, we are not experts in decorating them but they are delicious which is what counts! lol


 

This weekend is great so far. Last night, Friday, my dad and his girlfriend came over, and we did a little shopping in stores, of course wearing masks and being as careful as possible. My dad is almost done his Christmas shopping now. I only got a few gifts, so I finished my shopping a little in stores, just hit 2 stores quickly and the rest was online. So now just have to wait for a few deliveries, and wrap up gifts and I'm all set! I usually don't wait this long to shop but with Covid I wasn't sure how to go about things. I'm hoping I won't get gifts delivered late, but we will see.

So after our shopping yesterday, we came back here and I got supper ready, we had roasted chicken, which the chicken was spatchcock so it would cook faster, and I put the chicken and rib rub from Epicure with some white white at the bottom and it turned out delicious! We also had a garden salad, mashed potatoes and gravy. We played some cards after, so it was a great day. With more shopping today, and I did some laundry, now time to relax tonight, and glad we still have another day to the weekend.
