Pumpkin = Fall.  Fall = Pumpkin.  They compliment each other perfectly like a happy, old married couple.  I’ve been playing around with several new pumpkin recipes.  I’m still working on perfecting my pumpkin spice waffles and pumpkin smoothie, HOWEVER in the meantime enjoy this pumpkin bread.  It’s sweet, moist and flavorful.  Make a loaf and let me know what you think!
