Iced Pumpkin Cookies
So I got this recipe from allrecipes.com---I had to change it a bit...I added some brown sugar, a bit more pumpkin puree and flour to compensate for the added puree...and instead of cloves I added ginger. Try out the recipe and let me know what you think! My boys and I sure had a great time making them together and drizzling the icing on...and we even had a better time eating them!--Now we're off to go share some with our neighbors. I just love this season, don't you?!

Crock Pot Chicken Vindaloo
According to Wikipedia, Vindaloo originates from a Portuguese dish, essentially meaning wine/vinegar and garlic (in which the meat was preserved). Vindaloo keeps the three essential ingredients and adds all our beautiful Indian spices - and lots of them. A true Vindaloo is typically one the hottest dishes in India. Fear not, though: Here's a recipe that is a more reasonable heat level for us Americans, and in a crock pot to boot!
Ingredients:
3 Tbsp Vinegar
1 to 2 Tbsp garlic
1 Tbsp ginger
1 Tbsp curry powder
1 Tbsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp ground clove
1/4 tsp ground cardamom
1/4 to 1 tsp cayenne powder or diced chilies
1 Tbsp mustard seed
2 Tbsp oil
1 to 2 tsp or sticks cinnamon
8 oz can tomato sauce
1 onion, diced
3 breasts chicken (frozen is okay)
Directions
