Fried Pumpkin

Recommended Posts

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.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
