"It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!"

Perhaps not the Great Pumpkin but our large pumpkin was the bearer of many pumpkin seeds, soon to be roasted to yummy goodness!

• 6 tablespoons butter, melted
• 2 teaspoon salt
• 1.5 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 teaspoon seasoned salt (preferably Lowry's)
• 8 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 6 cups raw whole pumpkin seeds

Separate your pumpkin seeds, drain well and then mix with above seasonings.  bake at 275 for 1 hr, stirring frequently.

Add additional seasoning salt or seasonings to taste.

Happy Halloween!!

Spooky mice

What better to serve for a Halloween party than spooky mice covered in blood?

These mice are simply meatloaf shaped into an oval shape with little carrot or pea eyes and a bean or noodle for a tail.  Cover them in bbq for a bloody look!

Darn Facebook!  The final pics are missing and lost in a hardware crash :(

70 lbs of potatoes!

Yes.  I did it!  I bought 50 lbs of white fingerling potatoes and 20 lbs of red fingerling potatoes from Brookland farms.

Why?  These potatoes are low-glycemic and have a less starchy taste than other potatoes.  the red ones are pink inside when cooked.  And, they are very yummy!  I am told they will keep til June in my fridge - we'll check back on that later...

Tonight, I have simply boiled them and topped with shredded cheese and a touch of butter and pepper.

They go great with sauteed beans and chicken stuffed with brie and shallots and topped with a black pepper sauce.
