Positively in love...

First of all, I have to show you this article that popped up on my yahoo tonight.  It is way too funny and oh so true:-) Read for yourself the article titled, "Food trends men hate" and you will realize just what I am talking about.

Oh. My…..I have fallen in love…...In l-o-v-e with these chickpeas that is;-) These may just be another new fall fav of mine.  And low and behold, they are pumpkin flavored!  Therefore, I knew they’d be ah-mazing.  I never took people seriously when they told me roasted chickpeas were pretty great.  Well, these Pumpkin Spice Chickpeas are like pretty great bites of heaven. Be careful-once you start munching, there’s no stopping with these babies. Highly addicting.

I found this recipe on Purple Carrot while carrying out my new favorite time-waster; studying cooking blogs :-)  Hope you are as in love with this recipe as I am-Bon Appetit!
