Made me smile to remember her today.<br /><br />Never tried the pumpkin, but use my micro for acorn squash making it a breeze.<br /><br />LOVE pumpkin pie and it's one that I can actually make that tastes pretty good. Hope you try one and are pleased.Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10418918073683469543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8183659495792368796.post-87162968470691300262011-11-04T14:09:05.076-05:002011-11-04T14:09:05.076-05:00Proud of you for trying again.

When they are tender, after about 5 minutes, I drain them, cool them, and peel them. Then mash them with my hand held potato masher. Very easy. You can peel the chunks before microwaving them, too.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03816096081381689162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8183659495792368796.post-71855467787907085662011-11-04T08:50:04.606-05:002011-11-04T08:50:04.606-05:00I've never cooked pumpkin before - it's go...I've never cooked pumpkin before - it's good to know how to do it!Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289456727508305342noreply@blogger.com
