Gleni asked ----
I have had so many pumpkins I have had to make so much pumpkin soup and freeze. I suppose that is the best to do with surplus? Any good recipes?

I have cooked fresh pumpkin before and my daughter has too. In fact we cooked some about a month ago, canned some and froze some. You just peel it, cut it in pieces and boil like potatoes. Cook, mash if desired, and freeze. Make sure you squeeze as much water out of them as possible before freezing. For our Thanksgiving we made fresh pumpkin pies and they were very good. You can add some of the cooked chunks to sterile canning jars and either pressure cook or boiling water bath. Don't know the processing time at the moment but you could google that and find it I'm sure.
