Pumpkin Cooking Club

Yumi, Summer and I hosted cooking club tonight at my house. Our theme was "Pumpkin." Since Halloween is right around the corner, I put out a few spooky decorations.



I started us off with a bourbon pumpkin smash cocktail, with a spiced sugar rim! These were amazing. And they tasted even better in my new unicorn glasses!



Yumi made a salad with arugula, roasted pumpkin pine nuts and feta. This was a hit and we ate it ALL!



She also made savory pumpkin scones that were amazing.



Time to eat!









I made pumpkin soup, and served it in pumpkin bowls! I topped the soup with sage blue cheese pesto and spicy pumpkin seeds. These beautiful pumpkins came from Primaterra Farm at the Athens Farmer's Market. I've gotta say, pumpkin soup tastes extra pumpkiny when you eat it from a pumpkin!



For dessert, Summer made pumpkin sweet potato pierogis with marshmallow sauce and pecans.



These were fabulous, and the marshmallow sauce was so fun!



Mmmmm. Three cheers for pumpkins!
