1. I had a fabulous time in Kennebunkport, ME with my mom last week! Our rented cottage was 1/2 mile from Goose Rocks Beach on Goosefare Bay. We took twice daily (sunrise & sunset) walks on the gorgeous sandy beach with the dogs,
cooked some delicious meals, hiked through Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge,
ran along the quiet back roads, and spent a day in Portland, where we split a delicious Maine Lobster Roll at The Old Seaport Grill.
2. While in Kennebunkport, I discovered the simple joy of eating oatmeal out of a mug.
Pumpkin stovetop oats with candied walnuts, fig butter, and creamy almond butter.
Swoon.
3. Today on The Back Burner blog, I’m sharing a kid-friendly version of my Pumpkin Mac & Cheese from last fall.
This version features colby jack instead of gruyere, and is every bit as delicious as the original.
Don’t miss the recipe!!
