This morning it was my turn to bring goodies for our Sunday School class.  My aunt had just told me about these pumpkin squares that she likes so I got the recipe and tried it out.

I took them to Sunday School and people took about 2 bites before they asked, “Do you share recipes???”  Of course I do!  Especially since my aunt just shared it with me and now I share it with you.
