Pumpkin Cake in a Mug

Hey friend! I definitely want to do a few "fall" desserts and foods before the season has already come and gone. I actually saw the recipe for this Pumpkin Cake in a Mug this morning and figured that I would give it a try this afternoon since I've been craving some type of pumpkin dessert. I recommend making this in a regular size mug, no need for an over-sized one. It did not even come close to spilling over the top.  It's convenient to do these mug recipes when you don't want an entire cake and just want one or two servings. I ended up making two of these because, SURPRISE, the husband actually liked it! I liked it as well. Even though the cake is not super sweet, after adding the powdered sugar to the top, it gave it just the right amount of sweetness! This is definitely an easy recipe to give you that pumpkin taste and help get you through until that Thanksgiving pumpkin pie 😉 (Scroll to bottom to see recipe without pictures.) Pumpkin C

Crock Pot Mushroom Roast

Hey friends! I've got a new recipe for you! It's called a Crock Pot Mushroom Roast, but really the only thing mushroom is the Campbell's Cream of Mushroom soup that you use. It also has carrots, red potatoes, and onion soup mix. Yum! (Scroll to bottom to see recipe without pictures.) I don't remember where I got the recipe from, but I have been making it for a few years, and it has become one of my husband's favorites. He requests it pretty often in the fall and winter months. Now that it's officially fall, this is the PERFECT dinner for those chilly evenings. (Not that it's chilly here in Arkansas yet. I mean, when I made this the other weekend it was 90 degrees outside.) Just p op a few dinner rolls in the oven right before serving, and you've got yourself an easy, warm, hearty meal great for any night of the week! Enjoy!
