Drink Your Pumpkin Pie...

 
So far this week the weather has cooled down a bit. Yet, it still is pretty warm in these parts. We have been looking forward to a change since this Summer has been extremely hot and long to boot...I am so in the mood for sweaters, hot tea, soups...You know...Comfort stuff. I ran across this Pumpkin Frappe recipe on Pinterest the other day. Perfect for getting in the mood for Autumn...yet, cool and refreshing on a warmer Autumn day.

It was quite tasty too. And good for you. It has healthy fat, low carbs, and low calories... So, of course I couldn't keep this to myself. The site I got it from claims it tastes like Starbucks...I couldn't tell you...Since I have never actually had one there. I will definitely try one later though.
