  1. I gave this 4 stars. I loved toasted pumpkin seeds as a kid. We made ours different. We didn't use water we left ours out to dry on a cookie then bake them and salted them when still hot. I haven't had these since I was a kid. Thanks christine (internetnut)
     
  2. These were SO GOOD! And easy to make, too. They were actually easier to make than the ones that you boil, since you can just put them in the pot and do whatever you want until it's time to bake them. I made a curry flavored salty coating for one batch, and a sweet brown sugar & cinnamon coating for a second batch. YUM-MY!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!! I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch. We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
