Amazing! Wonderful! Lovely! Blankets of LOVE!!! I hope, hope this year I can be inspired to make some I feel like I was so blessed to receive one when my son died, it was a simple blue crochet blanket, he was buried in it and it was so beautiful and meaningful... I think I owe it to make and give some of my own.

Pumpkin Better Than Sex Cake

•1 box yellow cake mix
•1 – 15 oz. can pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix)
•1 – 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk (fat free is ok)
•1 – 8 oz. tub cool whip (lite is ok)
•½ bag Heath Bits
•Caramel Sundae Sauce

Instructions
1.In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix and pumpkin puree until a smooth batter forms.
2.Pour batter into a greased 9×13 baking dish, and bake at 350º, according to the directions on the cake mix box (approx 23-28 mins).
3.Remove cake from oven and let cool for about 10 minutes after baking.
4.Using the end of a wooden spoon to poke holes all over the top of the cake.
5.Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the cake. This should fill in the holes and soak into the cake.
6.Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
7.Remove cake from refrigerator and spread cool whip over top of cake. Sprinkle on the heath bits, and drizzle caramel over top. (I didn’t think the cake needed a lot of caramel at this point so I only used about ¼ of the jar. I thinned it out first by heating it in the microwave.)
8.Refrigerate for 3-4 hours, or overnig

This one I have not tried yet, reminds me of fall; hey, it is FALL. And September is flying by...at least to me. Love Apple Spice Cake, too. Plans of making hazel nut butterscotch oatmeal cookies. (PCers can relate to the Cowboy Cookies last Christmas) Dern scales weighted me too heavy today up another 10 poinds...in the wellness check. Lungs are better, Nurse thought the dizziness was due to not drinking enough water...and I am on water pills, too.
