I have a tendency to procrastinate until I have no reason left to do so, and this extends to projects for the birds. Birdie bread (aka a grain bake) has been on my to-do list for awhile now, but I …

Fall now means Pumpkin Spice everything, so we thought it would be the perfect time to try out some new birdie bread ideas.
