What is your favorite thing to do with pumpkins...besides smash them into smithereens?I like to plant them from seeds... the challenge is to get them to grow. I enjoy canning fresh pumpkin,and baking the seeds and adding sea salt for snacks.I enjoy eating pumpkin bread with nuts,frosted pumpkin cookies,pumpkin spice pudding and good ole traditional pumpkin pie.Carving a pumpkin for Halloween is fun and decorating a pumpkin Thanksgiving Centerpiece is always beautifully creative. Does anyone else have a favorite pumpkin food or idea they might like to share?

The first time we planted pumpkin seeds in TN we did it too early, they were ready and the weather was too hot they didn't hold up very well!
