Did ours on Saturday - supposed to be for the kids, but after about 5 minutes, the kids all vanished in doors with the food and fizzy drinks whilst all the mature grown ups stood around in the cold ooing and aahing at the sparkley things!   ;D  Must say, the pumpkin soup went down a storm!  Almost didn't have enough!  Put a good pinch of cayenne pepper in it shortly before serving so it was real warming and yumlish!

Pumpkin soup's a great warmer isnt it. Just rightfor bonfire night. Made it for the first time this year.
Only problem was it took two of us to wrestle with it to get its top off!! Then the insides were all over the kitchen.
I can remember cumin and garlic but not the third condiment that made it really yummy.

Got to wait until Saturday for our local one :-/, but I have to say everyone was really going for it last night locally - loads of fireworks to be seen from the bedroom windows ;D. Decided to let the mog stay in and she patted my face at about 4 this morning as if to say "It's alright now, mum I can go out - they've stopped!" :)

Love, Palefire
