Friday’s Last Spoonful: Pumpkin Treats

Orange before green and red

Pumpkin is popping up everywhere in snacks and treats for fall. The Mixed Stew found pumpkin granola on a recent shopping trip to MOM. Restaurants are also placing pumpkin on the menu. Miss Shirley’s Café in Baltimore, for example, offers Pumpkin Cheesecake-Stuffed French Toast for customers in need of a fix. Also, look for pumpkin goodies (rolls, pies, cookies, . . . etc.) in the bakery department of most major grocery stores. The Mixed Stew crew has been eating pumpkin cookies and even pumpkin eggnog from Safeway. Again, we suggest having a sugarless pumpkin pie to lighten things up this Thanksgiving. Can you think of any other fruit used to celebrate a particular season?
