It’s 80 degrees every other day, though the leaves are turning copper and gold. A week before Thanksgiving and we’re still waiting for the crispness that announces itself and begins our daydreams about roasted butternut squash and warm, soothing spiced lattes.
If, in this strange prelude to autumn, as you wait for the real sugar-and-spice cravings to kick in you want something pumpkin-y that’s not a pie, try Dallas-based Paciugo Gelato’s spiced pumpkin gelato, a cool seasonal treat they dish out till January. The texture is creamy, the flavors cozy with pumpkin and spice. Heat wave, blizzard—I’ll have it either way.
