These Pumpkin Waffles really hit the spot. They are crisp and perfectly spiced to smell like fall heaven. Then I topped these with freshly whipped cream, pecans, and warm maple syrup. I won't go back to plain waffles, at least not until January 1st.
Pumpkin Waffles with warm Maple syrup and pecans
It is amazing how much the weather and the date on the calendar dictate what we crave. If you offered me pumpkin anything January through September, I could only enjoy it in the smallest quantities. Then the calendar changes to October, and BAM!! Give me pumpkin!!! Pumpkin pie, and toasted pumpkin seeds are a given, but I love to use pumpkin in unexpected ways too.

I’m planning to start my blog soon, but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m completely confused. Any suggestions? Thanks a lot.

I personally love wordpress. I upgraded to the paid version a few years ago. If you plan on doing it as a hobby, stick with the free version. If you really want to get down to business jump in and go with a paid site.
