Purpose of this Blog...

You may have noticed that not all books are equal in capturing children's imaginations and in cultivating those innocent, tender souls. My goal is to help you find the ones that do!

PUMPKINS (AND JOE JOE'S) ARE HERE!

Look what found it's way into my shopping cart yesterday:  a mini pumpkin and a box of Halloween Joe Joe's!  If you're lucky enough to have a Trader Joe's in your area, you know that Joe Joe's are their version of Oreo's (but Joe Joe's don't contain high fructose corn syrup and the orange cream centers are flavored with real vanilla bean).

These little jack-o'lantern faced cookies are so cute.  My daughter and I did a taste test last night - they are yummy.  But  we have to admit, our favorites are still the Peppermint Joe Joe's that show up on the shelves before Christmas.

Oh, and for fun books about pumpkins, you can check out my past post, by CLICKING HERE.
