In some places you can buy a piece of pumpkin year-round, but the can is just pumpkin that has been cooked and puree'd. No additives, etc. Skips a few steps.

Pumpkin soup is easy to make- buy a can of pumpkin, some chicken broth, some bacon, some cream and some curry powder.

Fry up your bacon (1-2 slices). Put it aside and leave most of the grease in the pot. Add a can of pumpkin, thin it out with chicken broth and cream to the consistency you want. Add curry powder to taste (start with 1 tsp. and go up from there) and salt. Let it simmer for a while, taste for seasoning. Dish up and top with the crumbled bacon.

There- I saved you a cruise fare.

The new menus look very contemporary. They will save costs for Carnival by cutting down on laundry, fewer desserts (most markedly the cheese course) and wasted side dishes. Overall, customers get better cuts of beef in the grill section and the chance to pick their sides. The Port of Call addition is quite nice, and if one wishes to be adventurous one might find a new favorite.
