For my (this is Julie Lunn posting) FIG pumpkin Fresh Bucks challenge, I tried a new weekend recipe: Pumpkin-Walnut Flapjacks.
The husband is usually the weekend pancake maker in our house, but I went for it and successfully assembled the batter, which included whipped egg whites for fluffiness, with the aid of my 19 m...onth old daughter. Coffee was an important sous chef as well. The best part about these cakes is that they made the house smell awesomely fall-like.
The discerning critics at my house rated them: "good, a different take on your usual cake---so fluffy the inside is almost creamy"
and
"Pan-cake" followed by "more" followed by lots of licking up syrup and avoiding the pancake altogether.
Here's a link to the recipe from epicurious: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/v

At some point in college I read an essay on writing about character development. The general sentiment was something like: At the heart of great writing is character development – that of the author’s. So, we’re doing this new thing at FIG. You ...
Sarah Eykyn Our children's pumpkin carving party was great fun...though small hands and sharp knives are not an ideal combination! We decided the best part was not actually cutting out eyes, or carving sharp teeth, but mashing the spaghetti-like innards to get out the seeds. Our next task is to roast them - half spicy BBQ, half sugar and cinnamon. Yum!
Emma Pumpkin bread! Just in time for Halloween.
