So today I made a gorgeous pumpkin cake.  I have never had pumpkin in anything sweet before but I absolutely love home made carrot cake and so thought I would give a pumpkin cake a try.  The pumpkin really does keep the cake moist and I put a lot of nuts in (rather than sultanas or raisins) and made a gorgeous cream cheese frosting.  It was so so good and another brilliant way to use up pumpkin and not waste it.  

I do hate wasting food very much and so much pumpkin flesh gets thrown away.  It is such a versatile vegetable.
