The last light on the dashboard of my car burned out this weekend. So now, when I’m driving at night, I can see where I’m going but not how fast I’m going.
When they first started burning out a couple of years ago, I used Velcro® to mount a small LED flashlight to light up the dash. Works well enough. Now I’ve been thinking about how I can wire up a string of LEDs to the car to illuminate the dash. Doesn’t seem like it should be too difficult.
I’ll put it on my list of Things To Do When I’m Bored
Today’s CSA pickup came with another pumpkin. I still hadn’t done anything with the one I picked up last week (or most of the other squashes from last week either).
This pumpkin bread recipe looked interesting, but I was out of eggs and too lazy to head out to the store this evening, so I decided to roast one of the pumpkins.
A good sharp knife makes splitting it in half a pretty easy job.
Scoop the innards out. I like to drizzle a little bit of olive oil inside before roasting.
Steamy. And much more yellow than I expected. The dogs get canned pumpkin every now and then, which is always orange. Perhaps just a different variety of pumpkin.
Then just scoop the pumpkin flesh out of the skin and let it finish cooling and draining a little.
It doesn’t taste like much by itself. Maybe after I get rid of some of the water it will start tasting like something.
Now I have to figure out what to do with this roasted pumpkin…
