It's where I go to rest my leg and watch food and movies.<br /><br />Plus, the pretty lighted tree is in there.

I like the idea of you playing and learning, wish I could still do that.

Another time, as I buy the bones, weekly.<br /><br />Love a good crispy skin. I'll be playing with the trotters all different ways, because that's what I do -- play and learn. <br /><br />Today though, it's all about baking off raw pumpkin. Two more batches to pull from the oven. Kitchen smells wonderful.<br /><br />Hope you have a killer week, and eat lots of yummy bakes.

My mother didn't eat them that way, nor do most English people (the ones that do eat them although there are less and less these days). Marrow we used to have on toast as kids.
