Carrot Pumpkin Bread with Cider Glaze will make you dream of sitting on the porch with leaves falling all around and a cup of hot cider in your hand. And is there anything that sounds better than that?

Telling food stories, one kitchen at a time
Back to the food!
Well, almost… I just want to say how much I love you guys. I’d like to write an entire warm-fuzzy post about all you blog friends, but I’ll keep it short and sweet and just say that I have the best Internet friends and the best in-person friends a girl could ask for and since I’m fat and happy on all the love in my life this past weekend, let’s lean out a little with something green.

Okay blog friends – prepare for an influx of recipes! I’ve had two free days this week to get busy in the kitchen and so I’ve got weeks of recipes lined up! And I have a lot of food in my refrigerator. But I’ve got some hungry friends coming over tonight to help with that.
SO MUCH FALL FOOD. First of all, we’ve got Game Day snacks. We are covering that today. These sliders and this caramel corn are also great Game Day treats.

Please tell me you have room left in your big food-loving heart for a last tomato recipe. Please tell me that you’re kitchen looks like mine and you have too many left over tomatoes (and bell peppers and jalapeños) than you know what to do with. And now, take a deep breath, because we are going to cook all of those tomatoes down into a smooth, creamy, almost sweet sauce that you can eat right away or freeze for those days when you have the wintertime blues and desperately need a late-summer tomato pick-me-up.

The. Ultimate. Sandwich.
[If you’ve been waiting, here is the Chipotle Mayo.]
This sandwich is pretty much stolen from The Porch. All I did was add an egg, which isn’t even an original idea, and then I added a letter E to change the name.
I wanted to change the name to The cBALTrEcMgsB, but that’s just not pronounceable.
BALTE, by the way, is pronounced “bahlt.” Or “bawlt” if you’re Southern.

I know some of you guys are waiting to hear what I made Chipotle Mayo for, but… Ermagherrrd. It can wait. I need to share my love for burrata cheese with the entire online world.
I mean, tomato season is on its way out the door. Don’t shoot the messenger. Just tellin’ it like it is. This is my absolute favorite way to eat tomatoes. I know I said the same thing last week. I wasn’t lying. Tomato & Goat Cheese Tart is crazy delicious. But its totally allowable to have a two-way tie, or an eight-way, or even a 17-way tie in the food world. I would say it’s encouraged even.

I swear I’m going to write about tomatoes, but all I really want to do is talk about Miller.
And how every time I get an email from a potential owner, my heart stops dead. Wee little Miller, who weighed 2.93 pounds at the vet’s office. Tiny, bouncy Miller, the snuggle partner. Her only fault is that she is so small, I might roll over and crush her one day. She had her first public outing yesterday. I found out that she is a people-person. I might have to use this to my advantage…

Happy Monday!
I had a good weekend. Not to brag or anything. The week leading up to it was pretty quiet… The Bachelorette has ended and we didn’t make up another excuse for girl’s night. Summer has kind of slowed down and I didn’t make much of an effort to pick the pace back up again.
I expected the weekend to be the same. But then it was full of random, last-minute adventures, which is the best kind of weekend. You start off slow, with no real plans, and then everything you do seems fun and surprising and spontaneous. Like…
