Pumpkin Spiced, Nah….
Fall is in the air. Even in Austin, people are accessorizing for the mid-October season. Sandals, t-shirts, and the ubiquitous Pumpkin Spice Latte in hand. Speaking of #PSL —have you seen the turquoise cups at Starbucks?
I bet Starbucks chose the autumn-themed cups just for Front Yard People, don’t you think?
We can’t get enough of the fall flavors right now. Apples, cinnamon, pumpkin. . . and the cooler mornings leave us craving for something warm and cozy like these easy pumpkin pancakes.
