Piper, Piper Pumpkin Eater

I hate the smell of fresh pumpkin.  Hate it.  The only pumpkin-flavored dish that I like is pumpkin cake (but who doesn’t???), and that’s about it.  Anything in the gourd family is not my idea of a good vegetable.  Period.

When it comes down to carving pumpkins, I have never enjoyed the craft.  I particularly hated digging the guts out.  So when Luke decided to roast the seeds last week, it was his job.  And since I wasn’t going to be any help, he enlisted Piper’s support.

The initial analysis:

P1080701

P1080718

…and now for the true test of fun-ness:  Taste! (which truly brings tears to my eyes thinking of the horrendous taste, and god awful texture, of raw pumpkin…)

Trying…P1080708

…thinking…P1080713

The verdict?P1080710

That’s my girl.
