It’s Fall ya’ll! Bring on everything pumpkin! We are trying to get a cold front in Texas, but it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. The humidity is insane, but on a positive note, it’s the first of many and we need them to roll in to get rid of the monster mosquitos.

So this is something I was making for breakfast over the weekend, but it actually is better as a dessert. It’s more like a bread pudding. Really good, but a little heavy.
