Pumpkin

In other news, I decided to try make my own pumpking (for baking) this year. 


Brandon and I have really been enjoying "working" together lately.
He did stick with this too long since it was pretty hard to scrape the seeds out, but
at least he was willing to give it a try.

I tried two methods.  Half of the pumpkin was oven roasted and the other half was cooked in the crockpot. 
The oven definitely works better.


Measured pumpkin, ready to use.

Last week pumpkins were on sale at Freds for 18 cents/lb.  A can of pumpkin (1lb) is $1.69.  That's a pretty significant difference...nevermind that it's healthier this way. 

Have a good day.
