When the Frost is on the Punkin Published on October 6, 2020 by Marica | Edit “When the frost is on the punkin and the fodder’s inthe shock,And you hear the kyouck and gobble of the struttin’turkey-cock,And the clackin’ of the guineys, and the cluckin’ of thehens,And the rooster’s hallylooyer as he tiptoes on the fence;O, it’s then’s the times
Later today this pumpkin will become the vessel which will bring the goodness of beef stew to us. This is a Mr. Big Food adaptation. The stew will simmer on the stove for about an hour, and then be transferred to the pumpkin shell, and bake in the oven for about two hours. I can’t
“The feeling of a boy towards pumpkin-pie has never been properly considered. There is an air of festivity about its approach in the fall. The boy is willing to help pare and cut up the pumpkin, and he watches with the greatest interest the stirring-up process and the pouring into the scalloped crust. When the
Raggedy Ann – The Pumpkin That Wouldn’t Smile… In comments to my post about The Great Pumpkin, Miss M reminded me of the Glum Pumpkin– The Pumpkin That Wouldn’t Smile. It’s a Raggedy Ann & Andy tale, one that the girls loved. I think we still have the VHS tape in the store room! About
This recipe makes three loaves. It’s moist and dense and freezes very well. It is nice to have a couple loaves of pumpkin bread stashed away, isn’t it? “From the Monastery of the Angels in Hollywood, CA” MONASTERY PUMPKIN BREAD Makes 3 loaves 3 ½ C flour 3 C sugar 2 tsp baking soda 1
“No. No they don’t,” said I. I pulled carrots today. I rinsed the dirt off in the outdoor sink and moved them inside. Miss M took it from there. She sorted the carrots into ‘salad’ and ‘cooking’ piles according to the ‘peel’ criteria– if it’s too small to peel… . She then cut off the

The turkey, gravy, dressing “like my mother made,” and unseen mashed potatoes Cranberries, green bean casserole, and PIE. The winner is Pumpkin Custard Pie. To be fair, the vote was 2-1. Our dinner guest, The Bart Man, cast his vote for Perfect Pumpkin Pie because it was a perfect pumpkin pie. And that is was.
The pies, about to go in the oven Pumpkin custard pie (L); Perfect pumpkin pie (R) The pies, fresh from the oven Perfect pumpkin pie (L); Pumpkin custard pie (R) There will be a “Pie: Pt. 3” post after the sweet whipped cream is whipped, and we decide which pie we like better. “Why is
I felt bad(ly) about ending on such a negative note in the previous post. I like pie. We chose three of the smallest Sugar Pie Pumpkins. Mr. Bog Food cut them in half and I scraped the seeds and guts out. Aside… there are roasted pumpkin seeds coming. And we put them in the oven.
Grilled Salmon Bake I think Mr. Big Food is at his best when he semi-improvises. We were to have a baked striped bass dish this evening. Unfortunately, this morning we unanimously concluded that the bass had seen better days. So he picked up a couple of “Product of U.S.A.” frozen salmon filets at the Hog.
Very good. Not at all what I expected. I imagined that it would be more like a thick potato soup. It was filling, and very flavorful– as in there were a lot of flavors all mulled together. I’ve asked for the recipe. I’ll post it as soon as he sends it to me. I just
