PUMPKIN

something about pumpkin makes me feel all warm inside.  I could eat pumpkin anything any day really- maybe thats weird I dunno.  Lately I have been on a pumpkin mission, I wanted to cook a pumpkin sausage cream pasta this week but babysitting my bosses sons has gotten in the way.  Sooo yesterday I decided on chocolate chip pumpkin cookies.  Even though Alex and my dad both said "weird combo" I knew these were going to be unreal.

These cookies are like little fluffy cakes and they are so easy to make I felt like I actually knew what the hell I was doing!

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

My additions:
2 pinches ground cloves
2 pinches of nutmeg


1. Combine pumpkin sugar oil and egg.  In a seperate bowl stir flour baking powder cinnamon and salt. (nutmeg and cloves) Dissolve baking soda in the milk and stir in.  Add flour mixture to pumpkin and mix well
