one of my favorite food blogs is TasteSpotting, where i can look at images to decide whether or not i was to try making it. i, myself, have not felt my photos are up to par, but someday i will be up to par! anyway, one of the best things about TS, is that they post images and recipes from other food blogs and i've been able to find a couple others that i love. one of which is called Lovin' From the Oven. kim seems to be a talented, innovative baker, who totally understands what desserts and sweets are all about! i was in the mood to bake, but was looking for a recipe that was easy and that i already had ingredients to. so, i found a recipe for pumpkin bars. i haven't had pumpkin since christmas and once i saw the recipe, i suddenly had a hankering, of course. but, when i was done, i think i'd done something wrong because it had more of the consistency of cake...oh well, it's still delicious! i just wished i had cream cheese so i could frost it.
