I still haven't carved my pumpkins

Yes, the pumpkins I bought are on the kitchen table. They are keeping quite well, thank you very much. I lost my craving for pumpkin seeds at the moment. They will probably rot there, but haven't yet.

Speaking of delayed holiday festivities, our Christmas party was last night. We had our choice of prime rib, almond-crusted walleye, or spicy chicken pasta. Husband went with the chicken pasta and he loved it. I had the fish, and it tasted like the reason why a lot of people don't like fish. Fishy! I saw the one long-hair from the main office and had him sit with us so my husband would be entertained. They really hit it off like I knew they would. Everyone was really happy I made the trip for the party. Hey, I get invited for food and drink, I show up.
