The Ritual Pumpkin Slaughter

The 2004 Green Corn Project Fundraiser at Boggy Creek Farm found our hero clad in a fire-retardant suit with an array of sacrificial blades from around the world... A trembling, innocent pumpkin slaughtered before a horrified audience for the sake of making soup.

First you need to sharpen your knives...

Then you don your headgear and safety glasses and attack the pumpkin...

Carefully examine your first cut...

Blend it up in a pot...

And voila! Pumpkin soup.
