Thanksgiving Wontons, They're Filled With Pumpkin!


Yes that's right!  Pumpkin Filled Wonton Dumplings.  Really easy to make too.  Just mix some ingredients in a bowl, drop a little of the mixture on a wonton wrapper, and fold over.  Cook in boiling water and you're done!  Follow the link for complete instructions, with photos.

I Went to The Martha Stewart Show Live in NYC

You can go to the live taping of the Martha Stewart Show in New York.  The tickets are free, but you have to request them in advance.  I went twice.  The first time that I went, everyone in the audience got a Cuisinart Panini Griddle as a gift.  That was fantastic!!  A bit cumbersome walking around New York carrying something that weighs about ten pounds.  But I'm not complaining.  The second time, we all got a box of Minute rice and a Cadbury chocolate bar.  Oh well.  Again....not complaining!
If you're going to be in the New York area, it's easy to get tickets.  It just takes some advance planning.
Here is the site for ticket requests:

Halloween On The Ninth Floor - Part Deux

It started to rain around 7 o'clock last night so everyone on my floor settled in kind of early. I smelled fresh coffee brewing in the hallway and by 9 o'clock all the cupcakes were gone! So I put a few more out and by 10 o'clock they were gone too. I guess they wanted a late night snack. I'll put more out today.
