Throw a Pumpkin-Themed Dinner Party
Despite the quickly dropping temperatures and the dwindling daylight, autumn is my favorite season. Pumpkin is a big reason. I'm a forever fan of this orange gourd, and judging by bakeries and coffee shops this time of year, I'm not alone. If you're pro-pumpkin and looking for a way to celebrate the season, why not throw a pumpkin party? Here's a table and a menu inspired by this star squash.
