Hey! I'm back.
So my life went crazy for a while. I discovered that I had a competition this past Saturday for rock climbing so I had to train and get lots of other stuff done. So now I have a couple seconds to say hello and give you my dinner from a few nights ago (actually more like a week ago..) I had leftover pumpkin from a pie I made over the weekend, and didn't want more pie (there was soo much pie) So I made up this because I was sort of on a sugar high that entire weekend...

Pumpkin Soup
Add about a table spoon of vegetable oil to the bottom of the pan, once it's heated up add about 1 minced onion, size doesn't matter, so don't get to caught up with that. Once it goes translucent add about 3 cloves of garlic, also minced. cook until the onions just start to caramelize. Once you finish that Remove about half of the onions and set aside. Add a 15oz can of a can of pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling, it should be just pumpkin) to the pan you used to cook the onions. Add a bit of chicken stock to thin it out Again there is no set recipe, I just added it until it seemed right. Using thyme, cayenne pepper, black pepper and salt, season to taste. Allow this to come to a boil, then reduce the heat and allow it to simmer for about 30 minutes. Remove it from the pan and pour it into a blender, Blend the mixture until it is smooth. Put the pumpkin mix back into your pan and add half and half to taste. gently heat until the soup is hot and serve.

You don't need much of this, it's extremely rich, goes very well with a basic preparation of chicken. I used the onion and a bit of olive oil to cook my chicken and served it alongside the soup, but it's up to you.
Enjoy, and next time I'll post up my costume exploits (this could get funny to read...)
