My kids used to love Halloween when they were younger. They used to love going trick or treating and I used to love seeing all the houses dressed up for Halloween with them. So much fun.

Recipes To Try

I am sure it will not be the same for the children this year but I bet a lot more families will be having a little Halloween dress-up fun at home.

Some Recipes To Try

My daughter visited this Pumpkin farm last year with my son’s girlfriend and I’ve been waiting to go all year!

It is a shame we went when it was raining as they got some amazing photos last year but happy to have eventually got there!!

Also in other news my son is home from the hospital and learning to live his new lifestyle changes.

So much to learn about living with Diabetes, type 1. Life really isn’t fair sometimes.

Thankfully we found out in time as a few more days could have been another story. Such an emotional few weeks. I am worn out.

We have 3 big Pumpkins which we brought from the farm to cut up and make some yummy food with and also carve the biggest one up tomorrow.

What to make? We still have not decided. If you’re struggling for ideas too I have 9 Pumpkin recipe ideas on the blog today too.

Have you been to a Pumpkin Farm before?

1.) Ginger Pumpkin Pie: Great Recipe For Autumn And Halloween:

Firstly, we couldn’t resist adding just one sweet recipe, but we think you’ll be pleased we did! Don’t worry too much about getting rid of all those seeds. Once cooked the roasted pumpkin is pushed through a sieve, to make a silky smooth, spiced filling. You could also use butternut squash and enjoy ‘pumpkin’ pie all year round. Ginger Pumpkin Pie: Great Recipe For Autumn And Halloween.

2.) Baked Pumpkin and Watercress Fondue. Secondly, Autumn comfort foods with Watercress. We may have said goodbye to summer, packed away our shorts, and come to realise that winter is just around the corner, but there’s no reason to feel gloomy about what’s on the menu at this time of year. Baked Pumpkin and Watercress Fondue.

3.) How To Make Vampire’s Pumpkin Muffins. Thirdly, today I have a fun Halloween recipe to share with you: Vampire’s Pumpkin Muffins. How spooktacular? These yummy savoury muffins are the perfect bite for Halloween! How To Make Vampire’s Pumpkin Muffins.

    I love visiting pumpkin farms, Claire – and I especially love pumpkin this time of year. I really enjoyed your photographs as well as the recipes you have linked to. I can never get enough pumpkin! Thank you for sharing and for being a part of the Hearth and Soul Link Party Community. I’m featuring this post at this month’s party which has just gone live. Hope to ‘see’ you there! Take care and I hope you are having a lovely weekend.

    I love to look at pumpkins but get tired of pumpkin-flavored everything by the time this season passes! Some of your recipes look good, though!
    Thanks for sharing.

    I am so glad to hear that your son is doing better and at home. That must have been a scare for sure. Isn’t the pumpkin patch a lot of fun?! They are the best time especially for fun photo ops and apple cider yummies! Love your red Hunter boots – so bold and vibrant!

      Thanks Maureen. So much sad news at minuter 🙁

    That looks like fun! We don’t have pumpkin farms or even really do any Halloween things here in Australia but it’s nice to see what other people do 🙂

    Hope that your week is off to a good start 🙂

    Looks like a wonderful time. Nice pics.

    I didn’t know your son was diagnosed with diabetes. I bet that has been quite an adjustment. Looks like you had a nice time at the pumpkin farm despite the rain. I have a pumpkin chili going in the crock pot right now (though I used canned pumpkin not fresh).

      Thanks Joanne. It has been a bad few months.
