pumpkin mania

Tomorrow is the contest and my pumpkin pie will be judged along with many other tasty pumpkin desserts! I really should be baking right now but have decided to take a much needed break from all the gooey mess that comes with scooping seeds out of a pumpkin. Yes, my fingernails are stained orange and my kitchen looks like Halloween came early but the pies will be scrumptious. Plus when my boys get up from their nap they can help me clean up - that's what kids are for, right? Then there is Kate, our boxer pup, who sits patiently by my side hoping for anything to fall her way. Wish me well. I must return to my kitchen now. I will let you all know how it goes.

Your pies are always delightful! Except for that lemon one...ewww. ;-) Can't wait to try this new batch, it smells great. BTW, there is something sick and wrong about communicating like this when you are in the other room.

Oooh, don't be so hard on the lemon pie... nothing compares to the sorry attempt at "healthy pasta"... At least I solved the mystery of how to make wheat paste.

(congrats on finding "Baby".. whew!)
