Well, The Big Guy promised to take me to our local brew pub this week if the pumpkin ale is in o I'll be sure to check their website all week. It's due any day, now.
In return, all I had to promise was some sort of pumpkin goodie tonight. So, I'm making our favorite pumpkin cake. It's in the oven now so I can't post a pic yet. If there's enough left for a photo session, I'll try to show it to y'all tomorrow.
In the meantime, I'll share the recipe. Take my word for it, it's absolutely luscious!! (It was originally my cousin's recipe, so we all call it "Carole's Cake".) Hope y'all like it as much as our gang does!
