Ten good uses for pumpkins
When we think of pumpkins, we think of Halloween, Jack-O-Lanterns, pumpkin pie, and maybe Thanksgiving. But the truth is that there are plenty of ways to use a pumpkin!
During October, pumpkins abound. Sometimes they are too abundant. And it's not uncommon to see a side of excess pumpkin or left to putrefaction after Halloween, but there is really no need to let the extras go to waste. The following are just some of the great uses for pumpkins:
