-Below is my meeting with constituents schedule for the rest of the year. Come to one or all for some good conversation about what is going on in Delaware politics.

 

October:

Wednesday, October 18th Noon to 1 p.m. Mamie Warren Senior Center. Smyrna, DE

Saturday, October 21st 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. 3 Palms Zoo – Clayton, DE. Boo at the Zoo!  with a rain date of Saturday, October 28th

 

-November: 

Friday, November 3rd 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.  Harvest Ridge Winery. Marydel, DE

Monday, November 20th 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. Willey Farms. Townsend, DE

October means a lot of things to a lot of people. A big one is pumpkin flavored everything. I find pumpkin repulsive. But, I love pumpkin seeds. After carving one with Saul today I cooked up the seeds in a couple different ways. This was my favorite:

-1/2 pumpkin worth of seeds with the orange goo mostly removed

-Cooking spray

-Smoked salt

-Dark brown sugar

-Peri Peri chili (aka Birds Eye chili. Aka African Yellow Peppers) powder

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a non-stick pan with the cooking spray. Toss the seeds with some salt, brown sugar, and chili powder. Spread evenly on pan. Cook for 15 minutes. Stir and re-spread. Cook for another 5-10 minutes or until the seeds are golden brown and the sugar has caramelized.

 

— Thanks.
