Halloween flew by us this year. Touching up on the prototypes, finishing our first recipe book, and doing promoting work in Shanghai (we’ll have that in a separate post soon!).
While the Canadian Thanksgiving is long gone, we can still look forward to the American Thanksgiving coming up in the next few weeks. It’s our last chance for pumpkin!
Today’s recipe is a smooth and extremely pumpkin-y pudding. Great for pumpkin lovers, but for those who are iffy about pumpkin, don’t come back later telling us we didn’t warn you about the pumpkin 😉
