How to Make a Pumpkin Roll Video

It's Fall and it's time for my How to Make a Pumpkin Roll Video!  I recently had a friend ask for this recipe, and I thought it was about time I shared this recipe on the blog again.  With Canadian Thanksgiving just a few days away, it's a great time for Pumpkin Roll!

Years ago, I posted at HowDoesShe about the Pumpkin Roll recipe that I use that seems to be a hit everywhere I've taken it.

Since then I've had several people say that even with all of the photos in the tutorial, they're hesitant to try it. A friend of mine mentioned that a video tutorial might be helpful, so I had Ken video tape the process for me and I squished it into a 5 minute video.

Thursday Thoughts: Vlogging

Happy Thursday!

You guys, it's been a couple of months since I discovered vlogs. (Well, I had heard of vlogs and seen vlogs before, but I discovered a couple of youtube channels that I liked for different reasons and ever since then, I keep thinking about trying vlogging and I cannot get it out of my head, so I thought I'd give it a whirl and see where it takes me (or at least get it out of my system ;)

The thing is that I don't have a particular purpose in mind for vlogs and I ask myself what would I vlog about that I wouldn't blog about? Finally I decided that I'd just do a vlog for "Thursday Thoughts" (besides I don't do Thursday Thoughts very often, so maybe this would get it going more, and maybe it would be a good place to put things that I don't always feel like writing about). ANYWAY, today I give you my first Thursday Thoughts Vlog.

It's nothing earth-shattering, it's just a couple of things that have been on my mind & I wonder if you have any thoughts or solutions for me! I'm just chatting with (at?) you about the same things I would if we were just hanging out.


Please leave me a comment and tell me what you think- to vlog or not to vlog? Do you want me to do this again? Maybe with a more interesting topic? What would you like to see me vlog about? Do you care? haha :) If I don't hear any feedback from you, who knows what I'll do, but I do hope that vlogging might make you feel more open to sharing your thoughts with me and leaving comments more often- it's fun to actually communicate with people who are reading this blog! (or watching this vlog in today's case).

Thanks for watching! :)
