Pumpkin Pie Popsicles and A Great Movie

Yes you read that right, Pumpkin Pie Popsicles!  And believe it or not, they are really good!

I cooked 2 small butternut squash (in the oven, but you could boil them too).  I scooped out the squash and added 1/2 cup pure maple syrup, 2/3 cup light cream (I used 1/2 & 1/2) and 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice.  Smash it all up really well and scoop into Popsicle molds.  I swear these are da bomb!!  This great recipe also came from this months Family Fun Magazine.

Tonight I met with my Mother Artist Group to see the movie, Who Does She Think She Is? Excellent documentary about Women/Mother artists.  It is a powerful statement of how society has and still does view women artists and how these women struggle to be a wife and mother and still answer the overpowering need to create.  Check out their site and find the screening near you.  And go see it!

And look what I came home to!
