Roasted Pumpkin Seeds {recipe}

Every year from our jack-o-lanterns we make roasted pumpkin seeds. 

Here is my favorite recipe:

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

2c. raw pumpkin seeds with shells

 about 2tsp. butter, melted

and about 3tsp. salt

Directions: Heat oven to 300 degrees

Toss seeds in bowl with melted butter and salt.

Spread seeds in a single layer on cookie sheet.

Bake for about 45 minutes or until browned.

Stirring occasionally.

When cooled shells should be dried and easy to eat, 

if they are not, reheat and cool.

Elegant White Pumpkin Tablescape

White pumpkins are so beautiful.

So for the first day of Autumn I set this tablescape for two.

Water goblets, wine glasses, salad and dinner plates, candles and napkins.

Black and white plates.

I made these napkin rings.

Candles and ivy.

The pumpkins steal the show.

Happy Autumn!
