Happy weekend, friends!

If you were in the patch of Hurricane Milton, I hope that you are safe and damage was minimal ❤️

Wishing you all a wonderful few days of rest and relaxation (and hopefully something delicious, too)!

On Brown Eyed Baker This Week

Pumpkin Scones with Spiced Glaze – These pumpkin scones are a copycat version of Starbucks' pumpkin scone; they are warmly spiced and topped with two sweet glazes - one plain and one spiced. Grab a hot cup of coffee and enjoy one of these scones for breakfast, a snack, or dessert.

Friday Things #544 – School pictures, wildlife photography, slow cookers and InstantPots, self-imposed deadlines, TV, and more…

1. Grandma's Banana Nut Bread

2. Classic Beef Chili

3. Copycat Chipotle Chicken

4. Buffalo Chicken Dip

5. Traditional Key Lime Pie

1. Large Silicone Dough Mat - I LOVE having a big dedicated silicone mat just for rolling out dough, and the one I have has the measurement markings both along the edges and in circles in the middle, perfect for pies, cut-out sugar cookies, pizza dough, and any pastry dough. I can't recommend this enough! (Currently over 50% off)

2. OxiClean MaxForce Laundry Stain Remover Spray – My go-to stain remover!

3. Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce (for making the copycat Chipotle chicken recipe!)

4. Indoor Plug-In Fly Trap - We started using this last summer; it's AMAZING at catching flies and fruit flies. We keep it plugged in year-round.

5. Shape Shifting Box – Dominic got one for Christmas last year, and all three kids constantly want to play with it. I picked up two more this week!

6. Ancho Chile Powder - Another ingredient that packs tons of flavor into the reader-favorite copycat Chipotle chicken recipe.

What I Bookmarked This Week

I’ve never had true wild rice soup, and I can’t wait to make this version when the cold weather hits!

Love, love, love this turkey sandwich with apple, bacon, and gouda.

I’m 100% ready for holiday baking; bring on the eggnog muffins with crunchy streusel!

And might as well throw in this gingerbread cream pie, too!

This chocolate chip cookie dough cake looks outstanding.

Have a delicious weekend!
