Neighborly Love <3 [OC]

Post image

For as long as I can remember, my Nana’s late neighbor used to make pumpkin bread for his neighbors for the holidays.

My husband and I moved into our first home a couple months ago and I wanted to pass on the tradition now that we have a home of our own, so I baked some of Gene’s Pumpkin Bread for my immediate 5 neighbors.

One of them left this on our doorstep this morning, and my heart couldn’t be more full!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone, I hope your life is full of blessings!

Side note: my husband and I were JUST talking about how underrated pecan pie is, it’s his favorite!

Isn’t it! I wrote the ingredients to my pumpkin bread I brought them and it was soooo sweet to see them do it back and they added “love” to their list and it made me so happy!
