A couple weeks ago I celebrated the last lingering rays of fall by finally baking up the pumpkin I bought at the farmer's market for Halloween. Specifically, it was a pie pumpkin, not a Jack-O-Lantern. I hoped to get a second use out of it and, woah, it worked! :) Thank you to my sister, who recommended roasting, not boiling it; another Holly, at www.spendwithpennies.com for the instructions; and Rosemary at allrecipies.com for the roasted seeds idea.

A very sweet, moist, and fruity carrot cake, that is based on this recipe. Carrot cake can be dry so I am glad that the pineapple helped solve that. I am doubling the baking time because it literally took twice as long as what the link said.
Japanese Style Dried Sweet Potatoes and Yams
By attosa
This is a longtime winter-month Japanese tradition that dates back to the 18th century. No chemicals, additives or special equipment is involved. The proper drying of these vegetables result in a naturally sweet and chewy snack that is packed with nutrients. They are dried outside on sunny, dry days.
Sugar-Free Flavored Tea On the Cheap
By Sandi/Poor But Proud
I recently began to brew my own iced tea. But I missed the flavors that I got with Peace Tea. If you brew your own tea but would like some flavor, I discovered a cool and cheap way to flavor it.

Sweet jalapeno chicken blends sweet and spicy flavors. It is delicious on tortillas or served with rice.
