Pumpkins are Food!


My roommate and I invited some friends over to carve pumpkins for Halloween! I am not very artistic but everyone else did a really great job on their pumpkins! We collected all the seeds in a bin and then baked them with salt and pepper afterwards. It was a lot of fun!

My pumpkin is the one with his tongue sticking out! :P I accidently carved the top of the pumpkin wrong so the top wouldn’t stay on! At least I didn’t cut myself this time! What did everyone else do with their pumpkins this year? What’s the worst job you have ever done carving a pumpkin?


Poutine!

My friend and I decided that we wanted to make some poutine! We both have a thing for really unhealthy food so I had the great idea to add ground beef to it is well!

What we did is we fried some ground beef into a pan, then added water and a packaged gravy mix to it. We then added lots of random spices to it until we thought it tasted really good! We made french fries in the oven and grated some cheese while they were cooking. We then put the cheese and ground-beef mixture onto the fries! The mixture does not look very great, but I assure you it tasted awesome!

We decided that the next time we make poutine it will be even better! I think adding tomatoes, peppers and jalapeno peppers to the mixture would make it taste even better than this time! Has anyone else ever made deluxe poutine, or even nachos? What did you add to it?
