🎃 Delicious Fall Recipe: Roasting Pumpkin Seeds If you're anything like me, your favorite season is Autumn, and I get excited when making fall snacks and new recipes. My family loves it when I roast pumpkin seeds for a quick and easy snack. Roasting pumpkin seeds is one of those simple pleasures that turns seasonal scraps into a crunchy, crave-worthy snack. Here's my step-by-step method—with measurements—to help you make the perfect batch. Step 1: Scoop Out the Seeds Begin by carefully using a sharp kitchen knife to slice off the top portion of your pumpkin, making your cut around the stem to create a wide enough opening for easy access to the interior.  Once the top is removed, reach inside the pumpkin to extract the seeds. You can do this with your bare hands, but I prefer wearing a latex glove to keep things clean and comfortable—though this step is entirely optional.  Alternatively, you can use tools like an ice cream scooper, a sturdy fork, or a specialized pumpkin seed...

  “You don't make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” ―  Ansel Adams My husband planned a short trip for us to visit Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Although it was just a brief getaway, we created so many wonderful memories. I celebrated my birthday in September along with my youngest daughter, and my husband arranged for us to explore Milwaukee. We were excited to see one of our favorite bands, Twenty One Pilots. We had recently attended their performance in Colorado during the Clancy World Tour, and this time we were going to see them for the Clancy Tour-Breach. On our first day in Milwaukee, our luggage was misplaced. We were exhausted from our journey, and not having our belongings made it even more challenging. Fortunately, it could have been worse. After contacting the luggage department, we learned they were tracking our bags and asked u...
