I planted some pumpkin last season, and have harvested twice. It grows well in these parts (semi arid) as its drought resistant. I haven't tried any pies yet as I find the intricacies of preparing the crumbly crust gruelling, but I've made:

Cabbage and pumking stew
pumking and mince chicken stew
pumkin and carrot patties for vege burgers (you grate the steamed pumkin and raw carrots - mix with spring onions and spices of your choice - bind them with egg white and fry)

Urst! Where have you been if you don't know what is beetroot?
It's great in salads, hamburgers or roasted. It's an awesome deep purple red colour too. Careful will stain just about anything.

Here's a bunch of raw beetroot:

And in a burger - it's the deep red 2 round slices in the middle:

2. Getting my first computer, a TI86. I must have been about 11 and I flunked most of my classes the next year because I spent all day in school writing programs in TI basic and then coming home and typing them in.
3. Watching the snow fall and the moon shine on the ocean from my bedroom window when I lived in Alaska.
4. My first semester in the design program, and how insanely fun and great it was to be learning design, then realizing that people were really going to pay me to play around with text and color and shape until it looked good.

I can't answer them all , but here's a few:

Four Things I Wished I'd Done Earlier in Life
1. Stuck to at least one activity
2. Behaved a bit better...:o
3. Never started watching t.v.
4. Drawn more

Four Places I've Lived
1. Williamstown, NJ
2. Hollywood, CA [Only for about a month, but the cool factor rises when you add that we lived in a hotel since my mother was a performer there. She sang with this afro-centric group that did afro-centric performances(Huh?). We were also practising Buddhism at the time. Well, she practiced and I just sat there confused. I was about seven]
3. Compton, CA
4. Bakersfield, CA

Four Countries I'd like to Visit
1. Scotland
2. France
3. Egypt
4. Is Tibet a country?:confused:

Four Sites I Visit Daily
1. hotmail, where I have two emails
2. google
3. mail at myway: my third email for all my buffy-obssessed realated material, and because I can use myway in my email
4. coolhunting or hypebeast, even though I never have the money for any of it

Four of my Favorite Dishes
1. Anything Rubio's
2. Shrimp lo-mein, americanized chinese food style
3. The shrimp and vegetables with garlic bread plate that you can only get at the San Pedro Pier in California. Best Garlic bread on the planet and the food is cooked about as fresh as it could be. (You buy your catch then hand it to the cook) There's a bit of a downfall though since the area's exceptionally dirty inside, and if you go outside its cold and you spend the majority of the time gaurding your food from sea gulls.:mad: This is all assuming you went when the place wasn't crowed.
4. My mother's monkeybread

Four Things I'll Never Forget
1. Living with my grandfather:(
2. Everything that happened immediately after my mother's first back surgery (especially the shelters)
3. The time I saw Cirque de Soleil live, Dralion, hopefully not my last
4. The weird rain storm in Virgina that my mother drove the biggest posible Uhaul with a trailer through. I was so proud.
-
Now, am I the only person who had yet to answer? Cause if so that sucks.

It was so cool, my midwives were there and it was a planned home water birth (highly recommend it). My oldest daughter woke up just before he was born so she was there and helped cut the cord. It wasn't scary at all, it was truly wonderful, actually it was like a party, my midwives were/are good friends of mine, we had hors d'oeuvres and chocolate!

Muse, that's awesome! I had a midwife, but I delivered in the hospital both times. I highly reccommend midwives to anyone. Such a completely different experience, it does make it a celebration, as opposed to a medical issue. But yeah, wow, props to you for having yours at home!
