BEST PUMPKIN PIE RECIPE...Pumpkin Chiffon Pie

Want to bring/make the favorite dish this year for Thanksgiving?? Look no further!

🤎🥧 Comment PIE to have the recipe sent to your DM

To be honest, I am not a huge traditional pumpkin pie fan.  However, this pumpkin pie my mom made growing up is my all time favorite.  It is pumpkin flavored, but very light.  It is absolutely delicious. If you are hosting this year or bringing a dessert, I highly recommend trying this Pumpkin Chiffon Pie!  It is sure to be a family & crowd favorite!

This recipe will always remind me of my mom & she gave me the original hand written recipe card that I have framed in my butlers pantry. It’s very special to me! Can’t wait to make it with her this Thanksgiving!

💚 I’m so excited to finally share my office reveal! 💚

It’s amazing what a little wallpaper and fabric can do to completely transform a room. I found the most beautiful designs at @spoonflower — one of my go-to sources for wallpaper and textiles.

From the wallpapered ceiling, to the block-print café curtains and coordinating fabric on the lamp and chair, these prints truly pulled the whole space together. The quality, selection, and customization options at Spoonflower are incredible!

I couldn’t love this space more.

✨Y’ALL… I’M OBSESSED!!! ✨ 

When we built this house, I dreamed of having gas lanterns—but with a propane tank, it just didn’t make sense. Back then, the “flame” bulbs that existed were super orange and totally fake-looking.

Fast forward to now… I found these new LED bulbs on Amazon and they are a complete GAME CHANGER. The color, the flicker—everything looks just like a real flame! They’re even prettier in person and at such a good price point.

I had to wait a little bit on shipping, but totally worth it!

📍WOODSTOCK, VT

This was one of my favorite stops on our fall New England trip. Seriously the most charming town. Think Star Hollows!

Everything was walkable and oh so charming.

🍁 TO DO:
*on the way to Woodstock check out Cold Hollow Cider Mill & get some donuts

•Sugarbush Farm: maple syrup & locally crafted cheese
•explore downtown: lots of cute shops (121 Home, F.H. Gillingham & Sons)
•get ice cream at Woodstock Scoops
•visit covered bridges: Middle Bridge (in town), Taftsville bridge
•Woodstock Inn..absolutely stunning! Get lots of pictures
•walk Pleasant St and see the famous pumpkin fence house & other gorgeous homes

🍁 FOOD:
•Montvert
•Soulfully Good Cafe

We stayed at The Shire. It was perfect for our family. Had a cute little market across the street that we picked some food up at one night and just went back to our room and watched a movie. We picked Goodwill Hunting since we were headed to Harvard the next day. It was a fun little evening.

we didn’t have time for this, but lots of people go hike  Quechee Gorge which is nearby & supposed to be incredible. 

We did Stowe & Woodstock and although I liked both, Woodstock was my favorite.

Driving around New England in the fall is spectacular. Everything looks like a painting. 

I highly recommend adding the scenic Kancamagus Highway to your trip. We left Kennebunkport, ME and took the Kancamagus Hwy on our way to Stowe, VT. It might not be the most direct way, but it was totally worth it. It’s 34 miles long through the White Mountains.

We left ample time that day so we could stop take pictures, explore, etc. 

TIP: make sure you have a full tank of gas, have snacks, go to the bathroom, etc. before you get started because there’s nowhere to stop on the way.

TOP SPOTS TO SEE:
• Albany covered bridge
• Lower Falls
• Rocky Gorge
• Sabbaday Falls
• Sugar Hill scenic overlook

• Champney Falls (if you have more time) This stop involves a more lengthy hike to see them

Have y’all ever driven “The Kanc” before? If so what were your favorite stops?

Also, if you see something that catches your eye just pull over. Some of the favorite spots we found while traveling New England were just random pit stops on the side of the road. Everything is gorgeous around there this time of year and looks like a postcard.

Salem surprised us… 
it was so much more than witches and Halloween. It’s a cute coastal town full of charm! Brick streets, cobblestone, gorgeous architecture, beautiful parks old candy shops…such a cute town.

You will hear mixed reviews. Some people love it at Halloween. Some people say avoid it. Yes it’s crowded, yes it’s touristy, but we loved it. We love Hocus Pocus so we soaked in all of that fun, but then we explored and really saw how beautiful everything was when you get outside of the main downtown area.

We were there a couple of hours & got everything in. It’s the perfect day trip from Boston. 

TO DO:
•Explore downtown
•get a picture with the Bewitched statue
•We took a self guided Hocus Pocus tour (see my other reel with all the spots and addresses), there are tons of guided ones if you prefer that
•walk by The Witch House
•check out the backyard at Ropes Mansion
•stroll Essex Street (keep walking straight past Ropes Mansion-Allison’s house in Hocus Pocus) & you’ll walk right into a gorgeous neighborhood full of Colonial homes. 
•go see Max & Dani’s house from the movie & explore that neighborhood. More gorgeous homes right on the coast
•Pioneer Village was fun to see
•if you’re into all the spooky stuff there are tons of tours and museums you can check out.

We had pizza at Flying Saucer & it was delicious. It was a fun little Halloween festive stop for us that we all enjoyed.
Almost everything is walkable.

Best road trip advice...just pull over!

We had a lot of time in the car on our trip to New England last year with lots of famous outlook sites and stops planned. Don’t get me wrong...they were all amazing, but some of the prettiest areas we saw were just random parts off the road. We would see something from the window and just pull over to soak it in. 
The trees are gorgeous everywhere, there is so much water, beautiful churches, cute little country stores, old cemeteries, barns, bridges...you name it!
This particular spot was somewhere in New Hampshire that we just saw and pulled over and it turned out to be one of our favorite photos! There was no one else there. It looks like a postcard and there are spots like this everywhere. Some of my favorite times on the trip were just driving in the car and soaking it all in! 🧡💛❤️🍂🍁

📍Stowe, Vermont

We visited Stowe in Mid October last year. The weather was absolutely gorgeous and the leaves didn’t disappoint. We were there during the week so it wasn’t overly crowded.
It had a small town, relaxed feel, but was bigger than some of the other places we visited. In the winter it’s a big ski town & it definitely had that vibe. 

We went with kids and it was a great family spot. We focused on kid friendly activities and restaurants.

EXPLORE DOWNTOWN:
⛪️ See the beautiful Stowe Community Church
🛍️ Explore the cute shops (Country Store on Main & Farm Home Marketplace were some of my favorites)
🥞 Breakfast at The Butlers Pantry...pro tip...it’s a very popular quaint restaurant in the heart of downtown with long waits BUT you can join the Yelp waitlist online before you go. We were able to walk right in
📸 Picture in front of the Stowe mural on the side of Laughing Moon Chocolates

VIEWS:
•Smugglers Notch Drive
•Gondola Sky Ride
•Drive on mountain road (just outside of downtown) for lots of great picture spots. This video is taken from a lookout about 2 min out of downtown.

ACTIVITIES:
🌽 Percy Farm corn maze was a hit with the kids
•Brookdale Bridge is close by and beautiful
🎶 Von Trapp Lodge & Brewery are worth seeing. Beautiful views & you can get a day pass to enjoy the incredible property

OTHER POPULAR ATTRACTIONS:
🍦 Ben & Jerry’s factory tour 
🍎 Cold Hollow Cider Mill
•Gold Brook Covered Bridge
