Pumpkin Butter

I have had the weekend off from cooking.  We had leftover turkey, pork, and miscellaneous baked goods to eat up.  It was a nice break after cooking for nine (and to think that some people do that every day!)  The chocolate muffins with mint chip were a HUGE success. 

Our pastor's wife recently shared with us her pumpkin butter recipe.  She serves it on sour dough bread, but we have enjoyed it on a lot of baked goods!  I have not tried making it ... yet ... but I have some frozen pumpkin as well as 3 pumpkins outside that may make good candidates for such an undertaking.
