Halloween is my favorite “holiday” of the year!  I love the costumes and the creativity– especially because the more creative and crazy you get, the better the costume is.  This year, my Emma is a ladybug and I am a mom. 

For our very special Halloween breakfast, I made Pumpkin Pie Pancakes from Vegan Planet. These pancakes were light and fluffy, while not overly pumpkiny or spicy.  I followed the recipe exactly, except I used whole wheat pastry flour in place of the all purpose.  While I thought these were very good, the recipe could use a little more pumpkin and a little more spice.  Of course, Emma didn’t eat more than one bite.  *sigh*

After our pumpkin pancake feast, we watched The Nightmare Before Christmas.  What a perfect start to our Halloween!  Now, we just need to rain to go away so that we can trick-or-treat tonight.
