Favorite fall treats to share with friends.

One of my favorite things about our weekends is the spontaneity of seeing close friends at a moment's notice. Too often we strategize these intricate get-togethers only to have the best laid plans fall through.

In fact, my favorite memories often include a random text followed by my door bell ringing twenty minutes later. For cozy moments like these, I retreat to sweet treats and Starbucks® flavored K-Cup® Packs.

Since it's fall, let's be honest...pumpkin is on my mind. Know what pairs best with mini pumpkin pies (my favorite "mini" recipe)? I'll answer that for you: Starbucks® Cinnamon Dolce K-Cup® Packs.

The aroma of warm cinnamon and freshly baked pastries evokes many-a-childhood-memory for me. I suppose I want the same for my kiddos, too. Welcoming kitchens, cozy treats, steady friendly banter and lotsa laughs!

I mean, what else would you sip with a pie other than Starbucks® Cinnamon Dolce K-Cup® Packs?

A bit cliche? Guess what? Now that I am a mother of two, I am a walking cheesy cliche and pretty darn proud of it. 

Break out the pumpkins, turkeys, jack-o-lanterns and marshmallow candles because I've only just begun. Wait until you see what I've got in store for the holidays. (this is the part where my husband rolls his eyes)
