Yep.
After we say goodbye to Jon and Gina, Joe and I talk about pumpkin and all of it’s many (over) uses this time of year. Pumpkin lattes, pumpkin beer, pumpkin whoopie pies, pumpkin soup… We agree that pumpkin generally sucks as an ingredient, but Joe does provide us with a pumpkin cake recipe, which you can read HERE.
Before any of that, we are joined by Jason Sandford from Ashvegas, who helps us deliver the Food News. This week we touch on the following:
