Now that Halloween is out of the way, it's time to focus on Thanksgiving. The day we stuff ourselves till we about burst. Oh, I can't wait. My dear friend and hubby will be in NYC for turkey day, so I am starting thing about what I am going to make...I still don't know, but I am having fun deciding.
I found a delicious recipe for a pumpkin roll cake. I made it for a client to take to a party. SUCCESS!
Here it is, kosher soul pumpkin roll!
Nosh on,
