 I have a confession to make. I have never ever eaten or cooked pumpkin before. Ever.                           Every autumn almost all stores packed full with pumpkins.

Don’t you just love when things work out better then you expected? Like your meals, you plan one but end up with completely different meal. I definitely love. It gives this nice, warm feeling inside me. Very satisfied feeling I should say.Like these peppers. They suppose to be stuffed with meat and some other vegetables, and slowly simmered in a tomato sauce in a pot over a stove. But because time wasn’t on my side I had to think of something else.
