I'm sorry I can't help you out on where Mrs. B. got her pretty turtleneck. =)<BR/>An update on that little girl who fell on the rebar...as far as we can tell she is living a normal life and doesn't seem to have complications or infections from her fall. GOD IS AWESOME and we praise Him for touching her! <BR/>Have a blessed day in Jesus!The Dickinsonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01689122652341720167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474643432450421614.post-72298538560729321652008-10-07T14:17:00.000-07:002008-10-07T14:17:00.000-07:00Glad you liked the pumpkin muffins.

I'm a pastor's wife, too, and occassionally ask you for updates - particularly of the girl who fell on the rebar. My heart just goes out to her. I love fall and look forward to trying your Aunt Libby's cookie recipe. Oh, and I was going to say - I found your blog through Martha C. I don't know her either, but I'm a BJ grad, and found her blog when I was looking up something about BJ. So, I read Martha's blog occassionally to keep me updated on what's going on in Greenville. Now that Troy's finished with school, I don't hear much of that anymore. But, that at least explains how I found you. Oh, I also know Philip and Marianne B. from their time at BJ. I read their blog, too, but don't comment 'cause I don't have a login. I'm dying to know, though, where Mrs. B. (Philip's mom) got her pretty, feminine turtleneck that she's wearing in the birth announcement post of Stephen. So, if you happen to find out, I'd like to know.<BR/><BR/>Little anon.

If you like pumpkin muffins you'll love this one. <BR/><BR/>2 1/2 c. flour<BR/>1/2 t. baking soda<BR/>1/4 t. salt<BR/>2 t. pumpkin pie spice<BR/> <BR/>(If you don't have pumpkin pie spice it's easy to make. 1 t. cinnamon, 1/2 t. ginger, 1/4 t. nutmeg 1/4 t. cloves OR allspice.)<BR/><BR/>1 c. dark brown sugar, packed<BR/>1/2 c. white sugar<BR/>3/4 c. salted butter softened<BR/>1 lg. egg<BR/>1 c. pumpkin<BR/>1 t. vanilla<BR/>1 c. rasins<BR/>1/2 c. walnuts, chopped<BR/><BR/>Preheat oven to 300. Mix flour, soda, salt and pumpkin pie spice in a med. bowl with wire whisk and set aside. <BR/>In a large bowl blend sugars with an electric mixer set at medium speed. Add the butter and beat to form a grainy paste. (I usually beat around 5 minutes, butter will turn a lighter lemony color) Add egg, pumpkin and vanilla. Beat at medium speed until light and fluffy.<BR/>Add the flour mixture, raisins and walnuts. Blend at low speed just until combined. Do not over mix.<BR/>Drop by rounded tablespoons about 1 1/2" apart. Bake 22-24 minutes.<BR/><BR/>Scott calls raisins "old lady food" and will not eat them, so I leave them out. I love pecans so I replace the walnuts with pecans. The recipe says to "whisk" the dry ing., but I like the old fashoned way best, sifting them together. There are no baking soda clumps to make the cookies taste bad. These are almost like little pumpkin muffins. Yummy<BR/><BR/>Sorry about the BG comment, I just like cookies much better.<BR/><BR/>Love <BR/>Aunt LibbyScott and Libbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17648312303670968352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8474643432450421614.post-58165992109590514552008-10-06T17:13:00.000-07:002008-10-06T17:13:00.000-07:00Elijah is getting so big.
