Level Headed

My friends, today I saw the light! Only briefly, but it was there. A patch of afternoon sun.

IMG_7770-2Blog

Meanwhile, I built some shelves. Pretty proud of this accomplishment!

IMG_7763-2Blog

Now we have double the storage downstairs!

IMG_7768-2Blog

The secret of life: use a level when hanging photos and building things. Especially if you’re alone with no eyeballs to visually check your work!

IMG_7772-2Blog

Matt brought me a present from the bakery!!

Let there be flowing pumpkin all around us! No shortage of pumpkin here. I just have to figure out how to use it all before it goes bad in my fridge once I open a can and transfer to tupperware. Does pumpkin freeze ok?

IMG_7787-2Blog

IMG_7776-2Blog

For dinner I made this BBQ chicken recipe along with maple steamed kale and toasted bread

IMG_7778-2BlogIMG_7777-2Blog

From Hot Bagel Co’s oven!

IMG_7780-2BlogIMG_7785-2Blog

Evening activities included mixology:

Overnight oats for her.

Beer yeast for him! [Preparing for a brew fest on a Wednesday off!]

IMG_7788-2Blog

We’d love to watch The Office together, but we’re going to wait one more day until we have our new couch! If we watched it tonight, it would be two people crunched into one armchair! Or the floor. Neither sounds appealing.

Nite!

    I’ve frozen pumpkin before and the water sort of separates out. It gets freezer burn pretty quickly too. Maybe you can just take a small can’s worth from the bakery and leave the rest there for muffins .

    I’ve frozen homemade pumpkin puree many times with no problems. I put portions in plastic baggies, which lets me get all the air out, and that seems to prevent freezer burn / separation.

    I’ve frozen pumpkin before and its worked ok. Don’t leave it in the freezer for too long either. I am so jealous of seeing this pumpkin all over blogs! We ordered a case on Amazon and I am anxiously awaiting its arrival-couldn’t find it in any stores yet! I still have a pumpkin chocolate chip muffin my grandma sent so maybe I’ll eat that tomorrow to hold me over until the pumpkin comes. That’s a good idea actually 😀 Yum!

    the best way ive managed to freeze pumpkin is in baggies, flat, with every bit of air squeezed out. (or those crazy vacuum seal appliances work well- but lets be real, my kitchen is too small for extra appliances.) allie is right though, its POSSIBLE to keep the freezerburn to a minimum, but tough to keep the water from separating out. almost seven pounds of pumpkin…dang.

    Yes, it freezes fine provided that you’re not going to be using it to make a pie recipe that you’re submitting to Food & Wine magazine or anything 🙂

    If I use half a can, I take the other half, put it in a tupperware, freeze it, thaw it later on for the next use, i.e. baking, smoothies, oatmeal, etc and no real issues.

    And your shelving looks great!

    Although I have not tried pumpkin, I use my FoodSaver and my Mason jars and things last days to weeks longer in the fridge. In the freezer I use the FoodSaver bags. In the three years I have been using the Foodsaver, nothing has gone bad or gotten freezer burn.

      Hey Sara,

      It’s not so much a recipe as a technique.

      Wash and rinse kale and tear into bite-sized pieces.
      Heat big pot to medium high.
      Don’t dry kale – let it stay wet and add it along with about 2 tbsp water.
      Add lid and steam for 5 minutes.
      Remove and partially drain.
      Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
      Drizzle with maple. Toss.
      Serve!

    You can freeze the pumpkin, but I’ve read in several places that you don’t want to freeze it for more than 6 months and freeze them in smaller quart size bags, not gallon size (of course unless you need to use that much in one sitting!)

    Last year there was a shortage of canned pumpkin in the Chicago land area, but I haven’t checked the shelves yet!

    I freeze enough pumpkin (from the pun’kin patch) every season to last the year. Muffin tin cups are roughly 1/3 cup – I fill up my tins and flash freeze those puppies. After they set, turn them upside down onto a platter; the warmth of your hands loosens them and they pop out. Frozen, pre-portioned pumpkin to last until next year. The only problem is, I always seem to run out around May . . . 🙂

      I definitely don’t think I’d call myself a KERF minion, but I’m stumped as to why someone would have so many issues with a particular blog and yet continue to read it. And I always roll my eyes a little when someone anonymously posts a scathing comment. If healthy living blogs are freaky and cultish, maybe you should read a different one. Plenty of people seem to enjoy this one as is. You are certainly entitled to your own opinion, but the viciousness of your comments seems a bit unnecessary.

Kath doesn’t always make oatmeal either: pancakes, oat bakes, yogurt bowls, cold cereal, etc all make appearances.

    I’m not sure re. freezing canned pumpkin, but fresh pumpkin/squash freezes just fine. (I’m not a canned p’kin fan…it tastes, well, canned to me.)

    Great handiwork, Kath…jealous of your leveling skills!

    I’m afraid to say that based on the first episode of the season, The Office has lost its mojo…it’s just not the same without Michael Scott. In fact, the season opener left this household very disappointed. So sad…

    First of all – I CAN’T FIND PUMPKIN ANYWHERE!! It’s driving me crazy!! This happens from time to time and it’s just the worst. It’s nearly October and I have yet to find any. This is just absolutely unacceptable.

    Second of all – We have those same storage shelves, they’re AWESOME.

    Great job building the furniture! 🙂 Dinner looks phenomenal! I’m loving kale lately. Perhaps I will have some with dinner tonight. Yum!

    I have a shelving unit like that in my kitchen. It’s not IKEA, I got mine from Costco. I put all the appliances that I use quite regularly on it that way I don’t have to dig them out of my cabinets or upper shelves of my pantry. I have items like the crock pots, food processor, blender, popcorn air popper, big container of Pretzels (husband’s item), bowls etc. stored on it.

    You are becoming Mrs. Handywoman 🙂

    I cannot believe there is a pumpkin shortage, or at least that is what I heard.

    And yes, I have heard that you can freeze pumpkin, and it still tastes good!

    I love the idea of making maple steamed kale–thank you for that idea! I believe that our daughter will love that!

    I love, love, love The Office!!! However, I do not think it will be the same without Steve Carell’s humor! He is SOOOOOOO hysterical! I bet he makes his wife laugh all the time.

    Wow – a yeast starter, you guys are much more advanced homebrewers than we are! One day we’ll get there too. 🙂

    I stocked up on cans of Pumpkin while grocery shopping yesterday and I think my husband thinks I’m crazy now. “What in the world are you going to do with all this Pumpkin?” I have no idea yet, but it sure is yummy!

    Just tried your BBQ sauce tonight!!! SUPER delicious! I would totally do this with tofu. You can marinate it in the sauce and then bake it in the oven at 375 for about 30 min. Yummy…
