how to be early and late in one shot
last week's TAST and this week's. both funners especially the stitch with 4 names that comes out like a line of little ducklings :) i also used some raised chain stitch with it and i think with a less bulky thread it could look good. seems that raised chain stitch has become a favorite of many people including myself.
on another note i'm on an extended bad hair day-literally. my hopes of turning from witch to princess via a haircut bombed right in the middle and i was turned into a toad. i ended up with what is called a granny haircut. hate it and following murphy's law this time it will take forever to grow back.

remnants turned to gold
this is a quick post with very little fiber content unless your pumpkin was of the fibrous watery kind.
what to do with all the remains of the pumpkins? oh no! more pie? more soup?
here's an easy one:
- cubed pumpkin
- raspberries
- butter
- balsamic vinegar
judge by eye the quantities of the ingredients depending on how much pumpkin you have
boil the pumpkin cubes until done, but keeping them firm.
in a skillet melt butter add a few drops of oil to prevent it from scrching.
sauté the cubes until tender
add half a teaspoon balsamic
add the raspberries blend all adjust butter if needed.
add a turn of the pepper mill and serve hot.
you can garnish it with some more uncooked raspberries.
it's a tart-sweet side dish that goes well with meat or fowl.
in a short while i'll be sacrificing my scraggly over grown hair at the hairdresser and will go from witch to princess :) here i go!
