Brown Butter Pumpkin Blondies
Got you some seasonal ish, right here.
I am having a season of blondies. Since Beck has been old enough to vaguely care about helping in the kitchen I find that I enjoy baking more and more BUT, baking tends to take a lot of time, and Beck’s attention span is approximately 47 seconds.
So I’m always on the hunt for quick dessert recipes – things that don’t have a ton of ingredients or use a mixer, that sort of thing. Like my absolute favorite brownies: those are worth her attention.
Cue: Brown Butter Pumpkin Blondies.
…Five for Friday
Baby Will: 11 months.
For the last baby, can we keep counting months forever?
Will “turning” 11 months has brought tons of fun growth and development for him, tons of nostalgia for me. It’s not sadness, necessarily. I’m very careful to focus on how pleased I am every time one of my kids hits a milestone, and I really am pleased for them. It’s just that I like almost all of the stages of babyhood so much, when things turn out to be the last time I feel nostalgic for how quickly things are going.
- The last time Will rode in his infant carrier.
- The last time we gave him a baby food pouch.
- The last time we quartered (yes) blueberries for him.
- The last time we gave him a bath in the sink.
None of it was intentional and we didn’t know in the moment that it was the last time, it just was.
