Pumpkin Smoothie
This is a favorite family recipe! For an 'on the go' breakfast, I serve these to my family in plastic, disposable cups with a straw when they need it 'on the go'. What a delicious way to get Vitamin A! This smoothie was garnished with pineapple mint and spearmint.
1 cup soymilk
1 medium banana, frozen and broken into pieces
1/4 cup solid pack pumpkin
a dash or two of cinnamon
a dash of nutmeg
1/2 tsp. stevia (or to taste)
Place all the ingredients in a blender. Blend until very smooth. Delicious! Serves two.
***We enjoy this recipe year around. There's supposed to be a shortage of pumpkin this year because of flood conditions where pumpkins are grown. So --- to be prepared, we bought a case of pumpkin! It was even on sale for the holiday.
This sounds unusual to me. I love pumpkin but never thought about drinking it. But if it is from sweet La Tea Dah, I know it is good! Will give it a try :)

I have some antique sheet music that I am going to copy and make small scrolls out of to place at each setting with things I am thankful for about that person too.
Then the rest of the magic will be in the kitchen!! WOOHOO!! And I just love praising God for all of His many blessings, don't you??!!
May your celebration of thanks be filled with joy and memory making moments!!
