If you’ve been following me for a while, you already know all about my pumpkin fetish. It would be hard not to notice the massive number of pumpkin recipes I’ve been accumulating on the website, and here is the newest in my collection: Caramel Pumpkin Spice Latte Cupcakes.

How amazing do these scrumptious cupcakes look? Perfect for your holiday get-togethers, time with family, a special treat for the teens (or grown-ups!), and even elevated enough a more formal affair, these pumpkin spice latte cupcakes drizzled with caramel are pretty easy to make. The added coffee flavoring makes these a little extra special treat for those allowed caffeine indulgence and the cinnamon frosting takes our cupcakes over the top.

There is no better time to enjoy a delicious pumpkin dessert!

Here are a few tips for this recipe. 1) Let the PSL cupcakes cool completely before adding the frosting and caramel drizzle. Nothing is worse than droopy frosting. 2) A thin drizzle of caramel goes a long way, don’t overdo it. 3) A Stand Mixer makes a huge difference for your buttercream frostings. I burned out so many hand mixers making buttercream (at least five of them) and trying to get that smooth fluffy perfection — my mother-in-law finally bought me this stand mixer for Christmas. Twenty years later, it’s still going strong. Use your hand mixer for day-to-day stuff and pull out the stand mixer for buttercream.

Our Latest Shenanigans

See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I thought they were goners. See, my sister gave us the bulbs for Asiatic Lillies for Christmas last year, down in a bag full of dirt and told us to take them home and plant them in the cold so they would rest and come back next year. Or freeze them. I did neither. I knew we weren’t in our own home yet, and we were hoping to move into our forever home this summer, so I threw them in the closet and waited. They stayed dormant, and started to develop roots in the Spring, still in the bag in my closet. Come June 5, we moved into our new house, and I pulled out the bag around June 15 to plant them and found that the roots were turning to mush. The bulbs were starting to rot. I planted them anyway, but to make matters worse, I accidentally planted them upside down because I thought the roots were actually sprouts. Oops. Then, I hired my boys and their friends to weed the bed where these are planted and forgot to tell them to leave these alone. The “sprouts” disappeared. I thought they were gone forever. Here it is the middle of August, and a week or so ago, I found these baby Asiatic Lillies coming up. I texted a pic to my sis to ask if this was what they look like. Sure enough after all that trauma, this gift survived. I won’t have blooms this year, but I’m told they will come back next year and survive to bloom. What a sweet blessing that will be, God willing. And a sweet reminder to persevere under trials and hardship. God is doing something bigger, something hidden, something better than we can ever imagine. Hang in there! #momlife #momfierce #momforthewin #firmlyplanted
Today I’ve been sorting through some heavy stuff Today I’ve been sorting through some heavy stuff, especially the unmasking of pedophilia and it’s prominence in the US and in our backyards. This horrifies and frightens me. I am so grateful to know that God will prevail. In the end, He wins. Everything seems so dark here in the US and it’s because of the spiritual forces of evil — but I know God will prevail. His love never fails. I’m putting my hope in this truth. #loveneverfails #godwins #godisgreater #momlife #momfierce

There are so many things I need to tell you about There are so many things I need to tell you about this picture. First #sheisloved campaign with @mercyhouseglobal and sheispriceless.org - check that out it’s important. Second - that cute bracelet came from @mercyhouseglobal about a month ago and *didn’t fit*. Today it’s loose enough to twist. I haven’t lost a lot of pounds according to the scale — I kinda stalled out three or four weeks ago at 17 pounds lost — but apparently I’m losing fat. That’s a victory. Third, my hands look like my moms and will some day look like my grandmas. I consider that a blessing.  Finally, it’s been a beautiful day😍 but I’m kinda sad it took me this long to find a red marker and share the love. If you have one handy, it’s not too late to jump on board with @wearethatfamily and be a world-changer! #worldchanger #momfierce #prayformoms #especiallyteenmomsinkenya #mymomrocks
