Pumpkin guts...

I was just reading a few entries in the Jack-o-lantern gallery and noticed that so many people seem to have the dad doing the carving. Since *I* do our pumpkin carving, I was thinking about women and pumpkin guts...

I'm sure a good number of you are up to your elbows in pumpkin guts and I'd love for us to showcase what Moms can do with the grosses holiday prep (do you think pumpkin guts or turkey cleaning is worse???)

I've never quite figured out how, but my mom always cleaned off the seeds from inside the pumpkins, then baked them in the oven. With a little salt, they tasted a little like popcorn. I've tried to make them myself, but, of course they never taste the same as Mom's.

Sheesh

I made them one year - and they were SO good. But I didn't write it down and the next year - BLEH!
