Looks like I’ve REALLY been lovin’ on smoothies lately. Guess you’ve kind of noticed…

Surprisingly enough, though, I hadn’t even made a pumpkin version yet.

Well, let me tell you, once I got that can of pumpkin puree opened up, I’ve been enjoying one of those babies every single day for the entire week!

Do I really need to tell you just how good it tastes?

I thought not…

Really, the name says it all! 😉
