Happy Thanksgiving From Bella Home Goods! I love this time of year it's so festive and full of happiness and music. This is the perfect time of the year to say thank you for all of our blessings so, I wanted to say Thank you to all of my readers for taking the time to read my blog, offer your support, and pointing me in the one direction in finding some awesome bloggers to read about and help with my new website design this year and some awesome shopping tips for the best discounts and coupons to save boatloads of money at Michael's, CVS, AC Moore, MS Letterman,Rite Aid, Shop Rite,NCIS swat team, Wegman's, A&P, Stop and Shop and of course the Dollar tree for keeping me busy with crafting. My Pampered Chef family for delicious recipes and getting me to cook, my daughter's horse back riding lessons and Special Strides, high school football, First Aid, Meridian Health Center and my gazillion Doctors that listen to my issues :*) and having two very successful cornea transplants. Yikes, there really are so many things that I am so grateful for. To be living in a beautiful community and church with my family and close to the New Jersey beaches. Well, it's the situation, I am grateful and Thank You from the bottom of my heart for all of your support. This is not the emmys' or grammys' so I will stop with my banter and all that fills me up.... and on to some Thanksgiving turkey talk who is watching football tomorrow? I know every year the Dallas Cowboys play? And I want to know what is cooking in your kitchen tonight?? I bet your getting ready for Thanksgiving day, baking and prepping your turkey and peeling all of those potatoes. Oh, your not cooking well hopefully your bringing something yummy with you to share with your loved ones.
It's hard to stick to not over indulging on food so whilst I am on baking duty I thought I would share a Weight Watcher recipe with you. It's called Pumpkin Fluff Dip and at a delicious Weight Watchers two points per serving I think you will love it. My boys thought it was delicious. You can dip fruit,and graham crackers in it. Apple Slices taste amaze. Recipe takes about 15 minutes to whip up plus chill time.
Ingredients:
15 oz canned pumpkin
1 package(s) fat-free sugar-free instant vanilla pudding mix
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
16 oz Cool Whip Whipped Topping, lite or Fat Free

I also made Pumpkin Bread Pudding and substituted white bread. It made the house smell so good and your family will love it. I made mine last night so this is the refrigerated version but, once it is heated up and the flavors sit over night it tastes really good and you can flip it upside down onto a serving platter so the caramel drips down from the top. Extra yum! Here's a snap shot of the gang in action prepping (minus me since I'm the photographer) Enjoy!
