the night before halloween.....

I absolutely love the smell of fresh pumpkin. 

Right when the top is cut off and you get the first whiff.....mmm....

And then scraping and pulling the gushy guts out barehanded. 

Slippery seed sorting.

Drawing faces.....which one should we choose?

I feel seven years old again. 

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

rinse pumpkin seeds to remove all the "guts"

toss in olive oil and spread on to pans

sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar

or

coarse salt and cracked pepper. 

bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes until crispy (shaking the pan a few times while baking)

yum.

happy halloween!
