Peppa and the Peacock

Here's a picture of granddaughters Peppa Pig (Sophie) and the peacock (Maddie) with their friends Thomas the train and baby ladybug. For all you Americans, Peppa Pig is a British cartoon character that Sophie has fallen in love with. The Hub picked up her costume in Ireland a few weeks ago.

Old-Fashioned Pumpkin Loaf Bread
The Hub needed a snack to take to an office Halloween party, and we decided on this pumpkin bread recipe from Libby's. I don't know why this is called "old fashioned," seems like regular pumpkin bread to me. They've probably just run out of different names to call pumpkin bread. I made smaller loaves, but it still took the entire cook time. The Hub said it was gone so fast at the office, he didn't even get a piece himself.
