  1. You keep telling yourself that....

    I just read that Libby is 100% pumpkin. As in pumpkin, pumpkin. I'd be pretty disappointed if Lakeshore isn't as well.

     

    Anyway, the pies turned out OK. I was a little short on the crust because I wanted to use the 10-inch deep dish pans I have. The crust ended up thinner than usual, and I left them in a few minutes too long. A touch beyond golden brown. The effect is nice, though. Nice and brown and crispy. Yes, I've already cut into one. Will be better tomorrow when the custard sets up.

  2. Have you ever made pumpkin pie using actual pumpkin?  Roast pie pumpkins (don't use jackolantern pumpkins, they are less sweet and more stringy) just like you would squash (until very tender) and use that as the filling base instead of canned.  You might not go back to canned.

     

    Orrrr........ dirty little secret is canned pumpkin is mostly squash anyway.  Hubbard squash makes amazing filling.

    Yeah I'll get right on that. :)

     

    Hmmm, the can says "pumpkin." I'd be pretty disappointed to find out it's not all pumpkin, although it sounds like it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing. Still...

  3. I did not imply that was a concern of mine, nor did I imply that was a motivation for my posting an objection to that line of talk.

     

    Tread lightly when you reference my kids, dear old e-friend.

    My apologies. But you brought up having a daughter approaching college age in the context of being offended by stripper talk. It was just a joke.

  4. I'm making pumpkin pies after while. It'll suck having to smell them and wait until tomorrow until they're cool and set up to eat them. Lakeshore Pumpkin of course. Evaporated milk, eggs, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice. Light on the sugar and heavy on the spice. I like them more spicy and less sweet. I make my own crust too. I'll make a fine wife someday.

  5. Shave the goalie pads and actually call hooking.

     

     

    I certainly wouldn't make nets bigger however. 

    Won't that mess up all the nutscaping photos?

     

     

    Oh... pads.

    To the original post: The NHL is currently on pace to set a record for lowest number of goals per game.

     

    They've gotta get this fixed. Or at least tweaked.

    All time record? I didn't realize it was this bad.

    The Core certainly teased us a bit here and there.

  7. I hate nickels because they're just big enough for me to mistake them for quarters every now and again. Good to know that you're one of the old ladies that I donate to :P

    Get back to me when you're older and people are lighting up ones for a good chuckle.

  8. Canada is so much smarter than us.  Whenever I get pennies/nickels back as change I throw them on the ground.  Some little old lady might enjoy them.

    I've started seeing nickels and dimes ending up in the little courtesy change trays at convenience stores and the like. Pennies, OK. Anything silvery? No way, Jose. That's cray cray.
