On the bike ride to Kanra

Another beautiful day! I quickly had to do laundry before the rain comes again ha. I went to Kanra again today for a pumpkin baking party this time. The bike ride along the main roads was quicker and I got to admire the rice fields turning golden with all the mountains. I brought my supplies so that we could also bake my pumpkin muffins in a real oven this time. We ended up with some mini muffins and big muffins, a sheet pan of pumpkin bars, and made tofu pesto burgers (a spontaneous invention) for lunch when another friend joined us. Ichigo-sensei and her daughter even dropped by briefly. Plus some snack food was eaten while we watched Downton Abbey. Butter beer was also made! She’s so talented and made cream soda and butterscotch from scratch! In the afternoon, we were joined by another lady shortly before I had to leave to get some cleaning done at home. She brought some apple crumble that was also yummy. Ah, I love pumpkin things and how the smell lingers.
