Punting on the pumpkin...

Well, I had purchased a pumpkin for carving, but I didn't have time to carve anything. So today I turned it into pumpking puree. 8 cups of pumpkin puree! That's like four pumpkin pies! Well, I'm currently cooking two pumpkin pies. Let's see how they turn out: I've never made pumpkin puree from scratch before; I hope it comes out okay.

Recipe the second for today

Hot Pepper Jelly. Got a whole bunch of hot yellow peppers from Ketra at the party and I decided to try to make hot pepper jelly. Well, I don't exactly know how hot those yellow peppers are, but I used a lot of them in the jelly. We'll see if it is edible. I used two red bell peppers and one yellow bell pepper, and oh, about 16 of those little yellow guys. Plus 1.5 cups of apple cider vinegar, 5.5 cups of sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, some red food coloring, and one packet of liquid pectin. So now I've got 7 jars of jelly setting up that will hopefully be edible.
