Happy Monday Peeps! How was your weekend? Mine was fantastic, but totally exhausting. A date night in (I’m convinced that sushi, red wine, and Scandal is my happy place) a date night out, lots of errands with the kids (two giant thumbs down to running errands with three kids), and apple picking!! I love apple picking. It’s one of my favorite fall traditions. The kids love climbing the trees and picking/eating their way through this amazing orchard. And I love taking pictures of them doing it. This was one of my favorites:

Those eyes, right? I’m totally in trouble. How do you say no to those!?!

One of my other favorite fall traditions? Making all the things PUMPKIN!!

Confession? This Pumpkin Cookie Dough Bark was going to be Pumpkin Cookie Dough Truffles, but after literally four truffles I got super sick of dipping. Bark is the answer to my lazy ways. I might never make another truffle again. This bark is seriously delicious, full of pumpkin meets cookie dough (egg free) flavor and it barely escaped the photo shoot. I’m serious. It was like take a picture take a bite until I realized I should probably make sure that the pictures turned out before I ate the whole batch. Proceed with caution!
