In our area (the Los Angeles area), it's amusing to watch just how many pumpkins end up being thrown out -- many of the corner vendors selling pumpkins over buy and they end up with a pile of ~50 or more pumpkins to get rid of -- we used to (when i was a kid) occasionally go to one of these places after holloween and get several pumpkins for FREE since they were going to be tossed out anyway..

And I think I might just have to take your suggestion of adding in the crystallized ginger. How much do you think? About a tablespoon?Ed Tephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16123765355593762802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099844.post-1160265186841556682006-10-07T19:53:00.000-04:002006-10-07T19:53:00.000-04:00Joe,This is actually a really good idea.

We don't have a waffle iron, but I would like to try a pancake variation to surprise Eric. It is a nice holiday treat without being too cheesy. All going well, when we move to New Zealand, we can pretend we're in the U.S. with these fall delights. The current issue of "Martha Stewart Living" has some good pumpkin recipes, too.Shaunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345640038135299538noreply@blogger.com
