stir in one can of pure pumpkin puree and two cups of water season with salt

simmer until thickend slightly about five minutes

then eat

so we did

need i say more?

this is why i personaly need to follow a resipie excatly. when i went to the srore to buy the stuff this morning i didnt read the recipie so i bought the stuff not knowing the amunt of corn or pumpkin needed i just grabed stuff and we didnt use chili pwder we used all spice instead after trying it the firs time we added a packet of chili mix and garlic powder and more salt then pepper it was better then perri added cheese to hers and she liked it better with that we think if you add chicken and bacon it would be better

so make this at your own risk this girl will probably never EVER make it again im sorry mom perri and chelsea that it didnt turn out i got the recipie from the rachel ray magazine and the recipie is fromcaroline wright

braided bread

so here is the next bread recipie i did i made it this morning here is everything that is needed to make it

combine and let sit foe 10 minutes: 3/4 cup of sugar 2 tbs of yeast 3 cups of waem water (it looks like this)

after 10 minutes add 1/3 cup of oil (vegetable or canola) 1 egg then add 1 tbs of salt 7 to 8 cups of flour (it should look like this)

(my shirt after mixing it all together) add flour till it pulls away from the side let it fise (cover with a towel or plastic wrap) for about an hour

punch down and divide the dough in half then take one half and divide into 3 equal pieces form 3 long snakes the size of your cookie sheet then braid it this makes 2 loafs youDON'T have to braid it you can put it into a loaf pan (2) or make little balls and put into a 9x13 inch pan and make rolls cook at 359 degrees for about 25 minutes *****side note***** mine came out doughy in the middle so you may want to cook it longer then 25 minutes

it is yummy
