Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

This was my first attempt at making pickles and they turned out great! I've never canned anything before so I didn't want to have to learn the canning process and my sister suggested freezer pickles. I'll be making these again for sure. Does anyone know if I can put other veggies in like sliced carrots along with the other ingredients?
I think that should work ok. Peel and slice them and I would either blanch them or heat them with the vinegar mixture so they aren't as crisp before freezing.
