It is almost time for Thanksgiving and our Weekend Bites. As the big day fast approaches and all of us have million and one things to do, we are spending the weekend foraging the local grocery stores and the Santa Barbara Farmer’s Market to prepare for the big holiday feast. Our mind is on pumpkins and squash this week and what tasty desserts and sides we can bring along to our friends for Thanksgiving.

Favorite Glamorous Quote:
“I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion.” ~ Henry David Thoreau
Happy Thanksgiving from our kitchen to yours!
I want to take a big bite out of the Pumpkin cupcakes! They look so much better than the pumpkin pie I made for tomorrow. Happy thanksgiving!
We are glad you liked the pumpkin cupcakes and hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! 🙂
Thanks Manali, hope you had a great Thanksgiving too!
Great photos, but the part I REALLY like was the Thoreau quote that I have never seen before. I loved it.
We love the quote also, but should change it to “I would rather sit on my own cushion holding a pumpkin” 🙂
Love all those gorgeous pumpkins and squash! Totally my favorite part about Thanksgiving. Have a great Thanksgiving tomorrow! 🙂
Thanks Sarah, hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving too!
Pumpkin fest! Cool pics and Happy turkey day!

Happy Thanksgiving! The little scene with the chair and pumpkins is just so cute.
Happy Thanksgiving too!
What a beautiful setting for Thanksgiving. Fall is my favorite season of the year with all those wonderful flavors. Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving!
Glad you liked it Sage. Hope you also have a lovely Thanksgiving!
Those pumpkin cupcakes looks so good that I can’t wait to make them and your delicata squash looks gorgeous.
