This weekend I felt like a very lucky girl. I got to do some of my favorite things in abundance. First off I got to do some baking, lots of baking! I made six loafs of this freakin' delicious pumpkin bread. I can't take credit for the recipe though it is out of Bishops Pumpkin Farm Cookbook, man I love that place!
Three of the loaves were supposed to be for pastor appreciation month at church, but alas P was sick so we stayed home and ate one. We took a couple to my moms, and we still have one left. I also made some rocky road fudge for my brother's birthday, but I forgot to take a picture of that before I gave it to him. I am so over giving "stuff" as gifts, I think my new "thing" is going to be bring home baked goodness to people on special occasions.
On Saturday we went to a cute little root beer shop where they sell all sorts of cool bottled sodas. I noticed that they had bottle openers on the wall with a huge Plexiglas bin type thing filled with bottle caps. So of course I had to go ask them if they sell them and they replied that I may have as many as I'd like. So I made M reach in and get me several handfuls, lucky me.

Sounds like you've been having fun! So was the pumpkin bread recipe amazing? I'd love to see the recipe--how is it different than other ones?
Oh, and I finally posted our pumpkin patch pictures on my blog if you want to check them out!
Love the idea of giving homemade baked goods as gifts! The soda caps are a great find! you could use two of them to cover each side of a whistle, make a keychain from them, a brooch, fridge magnets, a cute charm braclet, or cover a pictue frame or even a journal...
