Thank you for joining me today.😊

I have been promising recipes for the Holidays and today I am sharing another one-a little late, but I suppose better late than never!

Seems as though my blogging ebbs and flows even though I diligently try to put myself on a publishing schedule.

I commit then I re-commit then before I know it the week has flown by with not one written word or photograph uploaded. It is not because I don't love to bake, craft, garden, decorate and write, because I truly do!

The problem is that I get caught up in the shenanigans of life and more often than not that means family time!

Family time often leads to time spent in the kitchen so today that kitchen time resulted in this delicious Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread recipe!

• It freezes up to 2 months.
