They're all dead now, but I'm sure we'll adopt some more in the next few days :p

I have. I'm going to sell them just before Christmas. They're sure to go up in value close to the end of the year. BTW they're not shares! They're futures :p

Pumpkin Pie is my very favorite pie...with whipped cream.
Followed closely by Apple Pie with Cheddar. Yum!

I've had some yummy things with pumpkin in at restuarants and ready made, but whenever I've tried cooking with pumpkin it has gone badly wrong and tasted horrible. Is there a trick to pumpkin cookery?

Cool. I remember about 3 years ago my friend and I went out to buy pumpkins to carve only to find them sold out in our local Sainsburys. We ended up carving red and green peppers and putting candles in. They sat out in my front garden for ages until one got so hot it melted into a blob. Still it was good fun!

Fancy a trip to Sainsburys tonight to buy a pumpkin or at the very least some carving peppers? :p

Hey, you can carve alone if you like!

Yes, schmenke, peppers melt and twist and contort into blobby shapes. Candles and peppers are not the best mix tbh.

... melt and twist and contort into blobby shapes. ...

Sounds a bit like Mrs. Schmenke when we cuddle...
