Meggie made her first jack-o-lantern today. She has decreed that all pumpkins shall be happy. No scary gourds allowed.
I didn't feel like making pie, just because I had the fixins. But I did roast the seeds with a little olive oil and chile con limon. (We love that stuff. We stocked up when we were in California. It's great on popcorn, too.)___________________

The pumpkin seeds were delicious. We'll be toasting the seeds from the second pumpkin, which we'll carve soon. A note about early jack-o-lanterns: It didn't even occur to me that we were putting the pumpkin out kind of early... But it hasn't rotted, because, well, it's frozen. Solid. Halloween is definitely a winterish holiday in Alaska. Sometimes cold weather has its benefits.
