Fried Pumpkin

The last pumpkin of the season made its way into the kitchen today. I sliced and diced it, put some flour, salt, and pepper on the slices (about 1/4 inch thick) and put them in a pan of hot grease and fried them bad boys. Fried pumpkin is good. I took some and made the wife a treat by putting some confectioner sugar and cinnamon on some of them. That will make your tongue slap the back of your neck. Ummmmmm, I can't wait till this years crop is ready. I also made some pumpkin chips. I thinly slice the pumpkin and bake the slices at 425 degrees till they curl up on the end and turn just slightly golden. I like mine still moist, but you can continue to cook them till they are dry. I like to put taco seasoning on them. Pumpkin is not just for pies. Try it, you'll like it. Maybe this year I can get Andy to fry some up at a tailgate. Hm, not a bad idea.

I have tried to grow pumpkins the last 2 years for Halloween. 2 years ago I harvested 2 and last year I couldn't get any females to grow (determined the seeds were gay).

I didn't realize you could harvest them this late in the year.

You winter them over to have to eat. Once you harvest your winter squashes in the fall, you put them in a dry cool place and they will last through the winter and beyond.

People don't use winter squash as they should. Soups, casseroles, and other dishes made from any winter squash is delish this time of year.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Yeah and he succeeded at an even higher level in LA with an even better surrounding cast. Goff is a guy that isn't really able to dramatically elevate players around him but he can make a good situation even better. He is capable of that. Some QB's aren't. I am not sure Dak is able to do that and he is in a similar "class" as Goff, IMO.

      Snow in the high country

      i think i could handle that for a year. beyond that....i don't know.  back where we lived, when we had a few inches of snow, it might have been a couple feet because we weren't getting out and doing anything. i remember times where power would go out for days on end. we had propane and electric heat, depending on the floor. basement (had a couple bedrooms and a living room and kitchen down there) and main floor had gas logs. main floor gas logs was enough to take care of the upstairs, so we could stay warm and cook on the grill when we needed. we had a well so that was always an issue when the power went out. had to make sure tubs were filled with water for the toilets and we had gallons of water for drinking and cooking available. always had to make sure we were ready. that wasn't always the case. we had a couple moments where we were going through propane quickly and because we were dealing with the worst propane company in the world (amerigas) they wouldn't get out to put gas in our 900 gallon tank. made for some nerve racking moments.  i know y'all were probably a lot more able to handle that kind of thing, but after the little bit (comparatively) that we got here i just have no desire to get trapped again. maybe for a day or two a year get snowed in and i'm good.

      We finally get to see Brooks this week

      I think he is just drawing a DC to them line and that's about as far as his thought process went. It makes almost no sense outside of that. Also, it doesn't make sense for Pittsburgh or Seattle at this juncture either.  I think our "veteran" pool is basically gonna be the Dalton/Flacco tier or the "pick your poison" options of young busts(Jones/Z. Wilson) or wild, TO prone gunslingers(Darnold/Winston/etc). We have the option to pursue I genuinely believe(depending on the way the rest of this season goes), we either draft a QB in the top 10 or resign Dalton. Outlier third option on taking one of the wild gunslingers that Dave feels like he can work with.
