Pumpkin soup season always sneaks up on me — one minute I’m making iced lattes, and the next I’m craving something warm, velvety, and a little bit nostalgic!
Maybe it’s the crisp mornings or the way my kitchen suddenly feels more inviting in October, but a good bowl of pumpkin soup just fits this time of year.
It’s comforting without being heavy, simple without feeling boring, and somehow makes even a regular Tuesday night feel a bit more intentional.
