Can you guess whose pumpkin is whose?
Our approaches to pumpkin carving were a good example of our varying approaches to most things in life.
I kept my design simple since I had never carved a pumpkin before, but I still put a lot of thought into it. I sketched out my design, created vector art in Illustrator, printed it out, taped it to my pumpkin, and traced over it with a pushpin.
Finally, I was able to start carving.
Nathan grabbed a knife and went at it, with no plan whatsoever.
"Are you making a dog or an alien?"
"I'm not sure yet!"
We're good for each other.
I toasted most of the seeds, but I wasn't impressed with how they turned out. I'm not sure if I did something wrong or if I'm just not a fan.
I also put all the cutout pieces into the crock pot and made puree out of them. I got about a cup and a half out of it. Now I just have to decide what to do with it. I've made four pumpkin recipes so far this season, but I still have several recipes on my Pinterest pumpkin board left to try.
Have you had any adventures with pumpkin this year?
