Room For All

[Mrs.Anteater]

Pumpkin and squash pies are simply a sweet starchy vegetable blended with a custard base (eggs and milk/cream). Sweet potatoes are a sweet starchy veg, Simply prep potatoes as you would pumpkin (roasted preferred as you get a degree of caramelization that deepens flavour) and puree and use them as pumpkin. Or google sweet potato pie - it's a southern US thing (has a bit more butter). I used Japanese sweet potatoes, which I like (and more importantly had on hand), but are white fleshed not orange fleshed, so I added a bit of food colouring and a bit of molasses to get a more pumpkin like appearance.

Bette, I really would love to live on your cooking for a week…

Tough day today. Mom is being kept comfortable at the nursing home but it is considered end of life. Lots of emotions…

It is a difficult time that crossing into the unknown ... that some declare they know all about. It is good to have someone on both sides that care ... sometimes the caring factor on this side seems to be lost to great avarice ... thoughts are with you and yours Nancy! Even though many say thought, knowledge and such is evil ... and other comments that are hard to understand ... when alive and observing it is tough ... requires considerable philosophy ...

Good morning! It is Wednesday. We thanks BettetheRed for the pies, and Nancy for the pumpkin muffins, they both look good.
Our thoughts are with Nancy and family, as they watch over her Mother.
We gather round the Coffee Cart for conversation, moral support, and community, as well as coffee, tea, and baked goodies. Today, our marvelous Wonderbaker has baked scones for us, and has provided us with several jams and spreads for them.
The tea water is boiling, and the coffee is freshbrewed. The scones are warm from the oven. All is ready, all are welcome! come in and share your thoughts!

Pi' is what appears when you knock the corners of the ruagh construct ... how square is that ... then it turns ... and Arthur's Table ... a' matte? Some say ammeter ... to a beat! The pulse is on ...
