Mmmmmm, that’s a treat to look forward to; Stacey’s endless pumpkin recipes when the Halloween door is over and done with. Is there no end to this woman’s talents? I mean listening to her describe the ‘cakes, soups and casseroles’ she plans to make, it all sounds absolutely delicious….
… well I say delicious, it might not always be the case unfortunately. If you’re wondering what that special je ne sais quoi in Stacey’s offerings is, that underlying tang or certain something you can’t quite put your finger on, it’ll be the dog piss which those pumpkins are liberally sprayed with every time Teddy or Peanut pass the front door.
When that special urine based something is paired with the steady stream rodent and wildlife visitors to the door, inevitably attracted by the allure of fresh vegetables just sitting ripe and ready to be eaten, well those pumpkins are going to be super ’tasty’ when Stacey adds them to her delightful selection of autumnal recipes. Of course those vermin also won’t have too far to travel to the vegetable free-for-all either after Stacey and her dad converted that lovely little outbuilding into a specialist housing estate for them, or the ‘pantry’ as they also like to call it.
Anyway, grab a spoon and let’s all head round to the Swollomon’s for some delicious soup I say… what’s that? Whaddya mean you’re not hungry?!
