I love the pumpkin latte recipe! We’ve got lots of pumpkins right now from local farm families and I plan to keep a few cups of pumpkin puree on hand in the fridge during the next few weeks for some autumn recipes. This sounds like a perfect treat for me and my daughters (with almond milk). Yum!

Thanks too for the corn syrup link. I am apparently also part of the Borg.

Thank you so much for the blog on the corn syrup issue. It has become a matter of study for me as I am trying to get our family to begin eating healthier. No wonder we can’t loose weight, when everything we eat has excess sugar now added to it, plus; it made me think about so many friends who have children labeled ADD and ADHD….hmmmm, could all this sugar be adding to the cause?
Love to read you e-mails. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for these! I loved the sounds of the pumpkin latte but wanted to make it simpler and vegan. My kids and I ended up coming up with our own recipes (including one for pumpkin almond milk) after looking at the basics. They were delicious and will be new fall traditions here.

Loved the corn syrup article too. I guess I’m part of the borg!
