Another Pumpkin Recipe for my Friends Harvest Pumpkin Cobbler
It is a soggy morning and the earth is just soaking up all of the rain we received ALL DAY yesterday. What a gift in these parched Carolinas! God has blessed us with a tremendous friend that grows hay for horses . . . who only has enough this year for his favorite customers. We are so GRATEFUL to be counted among them because so many horses in the Southeast suffered last winter from lack of grass during the winter months here when grass goes dormant. Things are looking about the same this year as well. Many horses are being neglected as a result of the economic conditions as well. I wish I could just take care of every neglected animal out there, but I just can’t! I’m a firm believer in neutering all animals.
I got a little side-tracked there didn’t I? Here is another recipe for fall that I think you will enjoy!
