Stop it, Liels! This is the second time I've seen your tantalizing, moist, delicious pumpkin bread.
You need to email it to me, or we will have a war break out between Idaho and Arizona: Potatoes vs. Republicans.

Also, for contribution, though I didn't take a picture of it, I had stuffed peppers with turkey and fennel with a side of quinoa and watermelon. Very healthy.

Okies, if you want it too Serj, here's the copy-paste recipe. ^^
1 (15 oz) can pumpkin puree
4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2/3 cup water
3 cups sugar
3 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour three 7x3 inch loaf pans.
In a large bowl, mix together pumpkin puree, eggs, oil, water, and sugar until well blended.
In a separate (also large) bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients. Stir the dry ingredients into the pumpkin mixture until just blended. Pour into prepared pans.
Bake for about 50 minutes until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
I used two slightly larger pans and baked them for about 20 extra minutes. They are very moist, to the point of being crumbly. ^^ They are delicious!
It's a random recipe I pulled off the internet because I craved pumpkin bread. If you guys make any delicious alterations, tell me so I can try it! :D

Dieting/cutting is *** hard Even harder if you eat lots of calorie-dense nuts! :p Those are like 700 calories per cup.

Good thing I only eat a few at a time! :P
I just eat 5 or 6 of them to tell my body "you're eating something,snack desire - fulfilled"
edit: And according to the packet and the internet,idk what kinda cup sizes you have in the US,but this is 550 calories per 100g,and a cup is 1/4 of that! :P

One cup of whole cashews (those are cashews, right?) is about 140 grams. 1/4 of a cup would be about 35 grams.

Yeah raw cashews. This entire pack is 150g and on the back it reads "1 cup,28g = 154 calories" "550 calories per 100g" And either way,I only eat 5 or 6 at a time,to make my body stop craving intake.
American portion sizes strike again?

It's always important to go out of your way to insult Americans when discussing portion sizes.
Anyway, I don't have any cashews on hand so Almonds will have to do.
Calibrate:
~28g of almonds:
Clearly less than 1/4 of a cup:
Or you could just, you know, search the internet.

Seems our cups are very very different then. Anytime I've seen cups of nuts sold here,the cup is big enough for maybe 15-20 nuts,possibly less. They are tiny little plastic ones here.
Regardless of what you and I both count as a "cup" based on what we actually use or what we go by from the back of the packet,I still only eat 5 or 6 at a time.
tl;dr cups are different all around the world
My rice cooker cup is slightly bigger than a cup for nuts here,28g of cashews.

That is a pretty wild difference, but I can't make it add up with the cup wikipedia page, which has the US legal cup being less fluid ounces than both the metric cup and the imperial cup. What does Italy use?

I've no idea,I'm Irish.
Edit to add on to the joke/sarcasm-ish part:
I think I'm seeing the difference though. Here we basically have a "nut cup" (inb4jokes) which is seperate from messuring cups,drinking cups,mixing cups,etc and is only used in selling/serving nuts.
The pics you posted I assumed were of a "US nut cup" because I thought it'd be a worldwide type of cup,not just an Irish thing.

There has already been many,many discussions on that in various other threads x_x not my fault XIAH uses bad colours for orange/red :<

I always thought a cup was 250 ml everywhere, didnt know people use their own and it's different by 10 or 20 ML like the states or japan, weird lol
Here in baking and things like that it's pretty much on the ball from what Suji linked,because it's a standard measuring cup. I guess the nut thing is just a cultural thing.

I guess the nut thing is just a cultural thing. yeah that sounds pretty stupid quiz. like if canada said "you know what? we love maple syrup lets all announce "1 cup of maple syrup is actually 361 ml, instead of 1 cup of everything else being 250ml. do it!"
and every recipe says
"1 cup of flour
2 eggs
2 cups of water
1 cup of maple syrup /wink"
or some crap 
(also josi,for baking and cooking,they give nuts here by weight in receipes)

If you happen to have a camera handy when you go for a meal, throw it down here.
Ate this last night. Made it all the way to the end, and couldn't finish half of one of the dessert plates :/ (Well I could have, but woulda needed to take a 15-20 min break, and didn't want to make my friends, who only had 2 plates each wait any longer)
Bacon wrapped shrimp and bacon wrapped crab meat were simply divine.
Buffets love my friends, but hate me! $6.99 for all that was a fucking steal lmao
