Happy weekend, friends!
If you were in the patch of Hurricane Milton, I hope that you are safe and damage was minimal ❤️
Wishing you all a wonderful few days of rest and relaxation (and hopefully something delicious, too)!
On Brown Eyed Baker This Week
Pumpkin Scones with Spiced Glaze – These pumpkin scones are a copycat version of Starbucks’ pumpkin scone; they are warmly spiced and topped with two sweet glazes – one plain and one spiced. Grab a hot cup of coffee and enjoy one of these scones for breakfast, a snack, or dessert.

Most Popular Product Shares This Week:
1. Large Silicone Dough Mat – I LOVE having a big dedicated silicone mat just for rolling out dough, and the one I have has the measurement markings both along the edges and in circles in the middle, perfect for pies, cut-out sugar cookies, pizza dough, and any pastry dough. I can’t recommend this enough! (Currently over 50% off)
2. OxiClean MaxForce Laundry Stain Remover Spray – My go-to stain remover!
3. Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce (for making the copycat Chipotle chicken recipe!)
4. Indoor Plug-In Fly Trap – We started using this last summer; it’s AMAZING at catching flies and fruit flies. We keep it plugged in year-round.
5. Shape Shifting Box – Dominic got one for Christmas last year, and all three kids constantly want to play with it. I picked up two more this week!
6. Ancho Chile Powder – Another ingredient that packs tons of flavor into the reader-favorite copycat Chipotle chicken recipe.

What I Bookmarked This Week
I’ve never had true wild rice soup, and I can’t wait to make this version when the cold weather hits!
Love, love, love this turkey sandwich with apple, bacon, and gouda.
I’m 100% ready for holiday baking; bring on the eggnog muffins with crunchy streusel!
And might as well throw in this gingerbread cream pie, too!
This chocolate chip cookie dough cake looks outstanding.
Have a delicious weekend!
