three things | fall comfort food edition

three recipes that i am wanting to whip up

one | three cheese macaroni a la martha stewart

two | oatmeal chewies via dessert for two

three | pumpkin spice cake with cinnamon bourbon buttercream frosting from m loves m blog

...

and before you say it...i am completely aware that none of these are health foods. not this time of year. nope. give me all the cheesy pasta and baked goods. but, at least i am getting my calcium in. oooh, and oats. oats are good for you. and 'tis the season for pumpkin. that festive gourd is a veggie. plus i am thinking about making a healthified version of the cake...but i won't be messing with that frosting. buttercream just needs to be buttercream, you know?

here's to balancing out the green juices and chia seeds with some good stuff from the dark side. hashtag, balance.
