Killed Pumpkins


Halloween is over and I'm bottling all of that beautiful pumpkin today in preparation for the busy holiday season. I have a running list in my head of things that can be made with it, not unlike Forrest Gump's friend, Bubba, with his shrimp. Pumpkin soup, souffle, cheesecake, pie, jelly rolls, muffins, cookies....I'm sure the list goes on, but I'll stop there. Yesterday, when I was chopping through the Jack o'Lantern faces, Grace came into the kitchen and asked, "Are you killing that pumpkin?" Why, yes, I am! How could you tell? I guess the knife through the ghoulish face was the giveaway.

  2. I have one or two, but it depends on what you want. If its bread, well, I can't help you. If cake is what you really want, then I'm your huckleberry.
