Are you a Pumpkin Eater?

With the little ghosts and goblins at home

eating their haul, I took my pie pumpkins off the porch

and (add a ghoulish laugh) butchered them!!

 

No sense wasting perfectly good pumpkins

when there seems to be another shortage.

Peter, the Pumpkin Eater would be glad I was

so resourceful.

One of my families favorite pumpkin recipes is

Pumpkin Rolls.

These are a yeast bread, soft and yummy.

Not a lot of pumpkin taste, but it adds to the texture and color.

The fun part about making these is that

you make dough snakes and then

tie them in a knot.

Kids would think that was too much fun.

I'll send anyone the recipe if you're interested.

They're great with any meal, including Thanksgiving.

I put a bunch in the freeze.

But for now they're served with the soup of the week.

Roast Butternut Squash Soup.

Soup = less cooking time = more quilting time.

It's a good plan.

Until Next Time-
