how to make:

Cut the papaya in half, remove seeds, spoon the fruit into a bowl and mash with a fork. Combine papaya and yogurt. Add the pumpkin and honey, and mix well. Apply mask to a clean face in a think layer. If you have sensitive skin, test the mask on a small section of your wrist first. Leave mask on for 10 minute. Don’t worry if your face tingles a little. Rinse off. Now you’re glowing brighter than a jack-o-lantern.



Roasted pumpkin seeds!

1.Rinse pumpkin seeds under cold water and pick out the pulp and strings. (This is easiest just after you've removed the seeds from the pumpkin, before the pulp has dried.)
2.Place the pumpkin seeds in a single layer on an oiled baking sheet, stirring to coat. If you prefer, omit the oil and coat with non-stick cooking spray.
Sprinkle with salt and bake at 325 degrees F until toasted, about 25 minutes, checking and stirring after 10 minutes.
3.Let cool and store in an air-tight container.
