No, I did not really eat pie for breakfast, though it did taste a bit reminiscent of pumpkin pie. Check out my find from grocery shopping this week:
Grocery shopping is a lot like treasure hunting, isn’t it?
Pumpkin spice Philadelphia cream cheese. You know that once I checked the label & confirmed it was gluten-free, there was no leaving that in the store, right? It did help that it was on sale, but I doubt if $.30 would have stopped me.
Not only have I enjoyed this on Food for Life English muffins, but Van’s waffles, too! I am not even sure that putting this on something is necessary – it is fantastic on its own, though that is probably not the healthiest way to eat it. It is like having pumpkin pie & cheesecake for breakfast. I added raisins on top of my waffles for some extra flavor today – really don’t see this lasting long in this house.
What is your favorite flavor of cream cheese? Are you a sucker for pumpkin like I am?
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!! Any fun plans?

My son and me, November 2000. This is before we were gluten-free/diagnosed Celiac.
There is a pumpkin hummus from FreshaPeel in my area that tastes just like pumpkin pie. It's amazing! And I love pumpkin. There should be a support group for me. Really. I might have to stay on the lookout for this pumpkin cream cheese it sounds delish!
Ooooh…now that sounds good, too!!! I'll have to see if I can find it!
I am a sucker for pumpkin, but pumpkin cream cheese is the first thing I got sick on in pregnancy. I really hope I get over that taste aversion!
There is a new website called http://www.alice.com which is a virtual grocery store and they do have some gluten free items. They are trying to get more. You just put in the search bar what gluten free items you would llike and they display what they have. after the 6 item you purchase the shipping is is free
I have not tried this yet but it does look interesting
Thank you

Thanks for sharing.
Kim where did you find the cream cheese? I’ve looked at both Kroger and Giant Eagle with no such luck. I’m living close to upper arlington so that’s where I looked. Maybe I should try another area of Columbus.
Sara,
I found it at Meijer on Maxtown Rd in Westerville.
I bet the other Meijer stores stock it, too.

In my house, pumpkin pie IS the breakfast the Friday after Thanksgiving. My husband started the tradition when he was a kid. One of our 2 kids follows his footsteps. Luckily, I have found a GF pumpkin pie that I really like.
Kathie – That is great! Which GF pie crust do you use? We like the frozen one from Whole Foods.
