Pumpkin time!

I love pumpkin season! I have a hard time finding a descent pumpkin in Texas so my family brought done a bunch of my favorite little jack pumpkins. Most people don't know that the best tasting pumpkins are those little short and squaty ones that most use as decor. Those little jacks are by far the tastiest of all! By no comparison what so ever! Well, that is if you get a ripe one. Because most people consider these tasty gems as mere decor I wonder if farmers pick them before there ripe. Such a shame. My parents brought me a mini patch (literally!) Of these pumpkins when they came to visit and I roasted some up in the oven. So freaking good! Better than I remember of what I'd get when I lived in upstate NY. These pumpkins are sweet! Really sweet! Now i'm googling for all kinds of ideas of how to put these babies to good use. For now, i'm just topping the pumpkin with some coconut cream. Yum!
