The first day of fall isn't until September 21st but many of us are already thinking about the cool, crisp days and smell of pumpkin pie baking in the oven. Maybe it has to do with the kids going back to school and the cooler evenings, but for me September signifies fall, way before the 21st rolls around.
Pumpkins play a starring roll in fall decorations, drinks, and food. Pumpkin tastes good and is good for you, the trick is to limit the sugar you consume with it.
One way to get the benefits of pumpkin without the calories is to put it on your skin. There is a post here that discusses the skin care benefits of pumpkin.
I love the way goat milk soap feels on my skin and the benefits of pumpkin.....without the calories ;-)
To celebrate, we made Pumpkin Swirl Soap and want to to share it with you. Three lucky winners will receive three bars of Pumpkin Swirl goat milk soap.
We love pumpkin bread & roasting pumpkin seeds - nothing is as cozy as the smells of fall!!
