Toasted Pumpkin Seeds Two Ways, Waiting On Martha || Photography Rustic White

One of my favorite, easiest, and semi-healthy treats of the season are toasted pumpkin seeds.  And not just plain jane toasted pumpkin seeds, but spicy mouth on fire and sugary cinnamon sweet pumpkin seeds.  It’s the best of both worlds (salty and sweet) and the perfect adult treat to be accompanied by an adult libation (spiked cider anyone) this Halloween night!  Trick or treat Loves!  Truly, MKR
