Pickled pumpkin,

Today I made first time homemade pickled pumpkin. As I wrote before, it is first time for me to do it, since it has been first year ago, I ate first time it. Since I did not have any recipe self, I asked it nicely from my aunt. Now it is done and waiting to be eaten later, since it wants to stand bit so that pumpkin can take all spices into it.
Here comes recipe I used, if someone would like to make it after.

Ingredients:

1 kg cleaned and chopped pumpkin
3/4 liter water
300 gr sugar
5 corn allspice
7 corn clove
3 tbl. spoon 30% plain vinegar
small pieces cinnamon bark

Clean and peel pumpkin and chop it small square bites. After that make pickling water.  Put water in one big bowl or pot. Add sugar and mix it well through until all sugar is melted. After that add all spices and vinegar. Pour all over the pumpkin and let it stay over night in chilled room.
Day two let it boil. Boil around 10-15 minutes and mix it as much as you can carefully, so that pumpkin does not get mashed.

Ler it stay at least couple of days and Bon apetit :D Nice salad for main course :)

Weekend,

Soon weekend is over and new week will arrive. This weekend has flied very fast again in some reason.

Weekend have been so far very nice, if I do not think and look of the back pain, what I still have. I have had that pain past 1,5 weeks. I truly hope that soon I will be free from that pain.

Weekend at home has been good. Quite many things has been made and some things still can be done more. One big thing todays plan is to finish my marinated pumpkin. It has been in marinade since yesterday and has to be couple of hours more and when it is ready to be cooked and canned. First time for me to do pumpkin and I believe that it will be interesting to see how the result will be. It has been a year since I started to eat pumpkin even thought my family has made it in since I was child. Can't give any reason, why I never have eaten it before. Therefore it is interesting for me to see how the result is :)

I want to wish you all a nice weekend. It might happen, that i will write bit more later, but I will not give any promises for that :) I admit, I just love Garfield ;)
