More from morningstar
So, I made this a week or so ago, and I've finally gotten around to posting it. I have been so crazy ridiculously busy - Never, ever, ever take normal classes and three online classes at the same time. Compounding this is also me trying to confront and kill some of my own personal demons, but that's for loljournal and doesn't belong on an art site.
I make this pie every year, and I really know the holidays have started again when I can smell this from the oven. It originally comes from http://cookingforengineers.com, a very good cooking blog, but I've changed the spices around a little bit. Since I haven't had the expanses of free time needed to work on 'real' art, I made this recipe card instead. This is being posted with permission from the blog's owner, before all of you Art Nazis get all over me.
This recipe works well with fresh pumpkin and fresh butternut squash as well as the canned variety. If you're using fresh roasted squash, be extra sure to run the filling through a blender to break up the fibers. You'll get a much creamier pie that way. I like my pie a little on the spicy side, so sometimes I'll add a little tiny bit of ground black pepper to it. Occasionally I'll have a little extra that won't fit into the pie crust - that's cool, just toss it into a ramekin (small ceramic baking dish) or an oven safe bowl and bake it with the pie - or, you know, you can just eat it raw. It's delicious. I make my own crust for this, but a store bought lazy crust works fine too. Just remember to blind bake it so it doesn't get soggy.
The actual card itself is perfectly 4"x6" when you include the edges of the laminate. I cut a quarter inch off of the index cards I used to make this so the end result would fit into a normal card holder or recipe card box. I used a light table to trace the lettering on from a template I made in Photoshop.

This is a photo, so you can see how shiny it is: http://www.gerbilfat.com/hosted/Art.....mpkinphoto.jpg
I know this isn't really furry art, but maybe you guys can imagine that the little gerbil with the hat on is a very tiny person in a very tiny fursuit.
