i almost burned the house down. i have that tendency (mom, remember the popcorn incident with sommer buhecker!).
here's the story......
halloween night, i carved the cutest pumpkin. luke helped me figure out how to make the idea i wanted and i carved it out. it was a very happy pumpkin. and i gutted it and kept all the seeds so i could soak them in my garlic solution and roast them the next day. yay!
soooooooo, the next night, i lay them all ou and start up the oven and i'm ready! i put the timer on 15 minutes, and when it buzzes i go check them out and stir them. they look great! but they aren't quite done, so i put them in for 10 minutes. yeah, bad idea. i go check them and there is smoke billowing out the oven and they are BLACK! grrrrrrr...... all my wonderful seeds are burned to a crisp! it was so sad! so, alas, no pumpkin seeds for me. so luke and i went back to the store to get another one yesterday, but there were no more. it just wasn't meant to be. :)
at least i have a cute pumpkin! :)

Hey goober, don't you have a microwave, you know that i used to do them in the microwave too and they were pretty good, but the oven is the best way,,,,,keep the heat very low, you don't want to fry the little guys just dry them out and cook them....
I can hear all the little Koreans now talking about you, "hey who is the white chick,,,dunno but she sure has a cute pumpkin"
bye cutie, love, dad
