It was a lot of work, but that's because I had so many pumpkins. I think the results are well worth it, though.<br /><br />Actually, Andrea, I can't take credit for growing them. My girls used last year's pumpkins, let them go to seed, and grew them. I watered them, though. Does that count?<br /><br />Jessica, you're welcome! I got my baking tip from Busy Vegan Mama. <br /><br />Carissa, a green house would be great - good luck!<br /><br />Jenny, I encourage you to do it!

We use a lot of pumpkin here, and at lunchtime I got inspired to try a colonial inspired side- mashed pumpkin with a little real maple syrup and butter. Sort of like baked butternut squash, but more maple. I am knocking around the idea of trying to make pumpkin whole wheat noodles , just to try to take pumpkin to a new horizon. Have fun working with your bounty !Dihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04694756762570280051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561395185167982469.post-54230526115458141982010-11-15T10:58:29.427-08:002010-11-15T10:58:29.427-08:00what a wonderful harvest...Praise The Lord!
