Hubby and I and the housemate we're willing to keep are going to a buffet tomorrow. Hubby used to like to cook it all up, but now the joy of no dishes to wash or cooking to do, plus his general blahness, have won. Being as none of us are from families that clamor for our company, it's a good thing. We will then come home and watch Castle DVDs.

I am thankful that I have friends wacky enough to call me and remind me my keys are in the fridge. Also, msbelle, I hope it's nothing with your mother.
My father went to the hospital yesterday to get an ECG. No, he hasn't told me this yet, and I'm not sure if I'm going to tell him he knows. No news yet on the outcome or possible severity of what sent him there. But it's not often he feels bad enough to get my mother to take him in.
you misspelled helpful and delightful.
ugh, whyfor parents?!?
It's weird how my accent comes through in my typing too, innit?
OK, anyone think of something easy and preferably savory to do with half a large can of pumpkin? The 29 oz cans were all I could find, and my pie recipe (which I just made) only calls for 16 oz can. I don't need another pie or anything sweet.
I had a delicious Afghan pumpkin thing last night -- it was chunks of squash with a meat sauce, but maybe looking that direction would lead you some spicing ideas.
Ravioli, maybe? (Made with wonton wrappers so you don't have to roll your own pasta.)
pumpkin curry soup
pumpkin and sausage ravioli.
ravioli is delicious, I just had some squash ravioli from TJ's...but I'd have to make it. That seems like a lot of effort. Pumpkin soup it is! :) (Though I am tempted by a "pumpkin pecan pasta casserole" a friend posted about, and a google finds me a yummy looking casserole...but again, I'd have to go get ricotta).
