After a long hard day of putting together a cabinet... and eating...
Here's the second part of our day on 11.20.10, another fantastic video JD put together. In case you wanted to make pumpkin pie milkshakes or a delicious quiche for yourself, the recipes are below the video.
Also this month, we will be putting up our Christmas videos. It's bad luck to have your Christmas decorations up after December 31st. I hope it's not bad luck to show Christmas videos after the last day of December too...

Pumpkin Pie Milkshake
Recipe by Our Best Bites
1/3 C pumpkin, canned or homemade
1/4 - 1/2 C milk
1/4 t vanilla
1/2 t cinnamon
1/16 t cloves (just use a 1/8 t measure and fill it half way, or do a pinch)
1/16 t nutmeg
2 T brown sugar
2 C vanilla ice cream
1-2 graham crackers
Pop everything but graham crackers in a blender. Start with 1/4 C milk and then slowly add more if needed to make the blender process it all. I used somewhere between 1/4-1/2 C.
