This year for Halloween, I am not dressing up. I am working the graveyard shift tonight, so I will just be wearing my Halloween nursing scrubs.
I did carve a pumpkin though! It’s very basic, since I am very uncoordinated with carving knifes. Here it is.
With the seeds I roasted them in the oven. First I washed them with cold water. Then I placed them on two cookie sheets spread as evenly as possible. Finally I sprinkled lots of salt on them. I then baked them in my preheated oven at 300 degrees C for 7 minutes. Then I flipped them with a spatula and baked them for another 6 minutes. They are slightly crispy and crunchy, and oh so yummy. Here are a couple photos.
For the trick or treaters, we will be giving out these. First we will be removing some of the coffee crisps though since it is a house hold favourite.
Have a happy and safe Halloween.J
