(Sometimes pumpkin pie gets to be pumpkin pie!)You’ll also learn how Regina’s favorite question—“What can I add?”—can help you build satisfying, nourishing meals while still enjoying the foods you love, plus simple strategies for parties, holiday gatherings, blood sugar balance, and keeping seasonal treats special without making them forbidden.And because fall is about so much more than pumpkin spice, we’ll slow down to talk about harvest, gratitude, God’s incredible provision through food, and why caring for our bodies and celebrating around the table can beautifully coexist.The goal this fall?
