When it comes to fall, I cant get enough of pumpkins. Pumpkin recipes, decorations, jack-o-lanterns… and the smells of fall! Pumpkin pie, apples, cinnamon, mulled cider, it all just makes me feel so warm and comfy. Like these pumpkin pancakes. They smell so good while cooking, just like Fall time, and are equally delicious. It put me in a good mood as I cooked them, and a better mood after I ate them. I Love this time of year.
