		+	I am a big fan of sweet pumpkin soup as I don't care much for squash alone. I usually take the route of sweetening things up with maple syrup or caramelized onions but I thought that I'd try something more savoury this time instead and was impressed.
		+
		+	==Ingredients==
		+
		+	* 1 1/2-2 small pumpkins (you'll want about 3 cups worth of usable substance)
		+	* 1-2 lbs mussels (1lb per person is the general rule)
		+	* 750ml dry white wine (I used Chablis, but if I do this again I'll use a dry table wine instead)
		+	* 1 cup water
		+	* 1 shallot
		+	* 6 tbsp. butter
		+	* 1 tbsp. curry powder (optional)
		+	* Salt & pepper
		+	* 2 tbsp. fresh parsley (optional garnish)
		+
		+	==Method==
		+
		+	Start by cleaning mussels in a sieve. Rinse and remove any 'beards' you see.
