Pumpkin Custard

Well, I tried making it today. Pix here. It's still in the oven baking, but I really have doubts as to how it'll end up... I'm such a bad cook :-P
Know why they'll turn out bad?
A) I used regular sugar instead of brown sugar
B) I used too much water vs coconut milk
C) I didn't beat the custard mix until it was bubbly, meaning the custard is going to be really, really, really thick and heavy (hey, I didn't have a wisk!)

I also feel really bad because Christine lent me her pot and I stirred stuff in it with a fork and scratched it a bit. I'm really, really, really sorry Christine! :(

So yeah... pumpkins... I will edit this entry when they're done at 10 PM and tell you how they came out.

Bagger yesterday was fun. Name was Brian. I got pix. Went to programming with me today. Uh... yeah.

Tomorrow is November 2. Please vote.

Edit: Well, I turned off the oven. They seem relatively done. Now I have to wait an hour for them to cool down so I can actually remove them from the oven.

Edit edit: Well, verdict is in... and they're absolutely disgusting. Bleeeah. I mean seriously, I've got one sitting here on my desk and I can't even stand the smell of it. Eh. Maybe someone else'll like it.

Edit edit edit: Nope, no one likes it. Tim doesn't like it, Apphia most likely won't, and Christine won't either, and the other one I had to stick outside my room because the smell was making me nausious. Eeeewwwwwww.

Edit edit edit edit: Christine and Apphia both liked it... weird. I guess I'm not THAT bad of a cook? Actually, I tried the one I had left today... after it cooled down and the smell went away, it's actually pretty tasty. Mmmm mmmm.
