      mathling dpawson Yeah, I’m not getting sugar pumpkins, I’m resigned to that. The little one I got at the market roasted up nicely. Mixing in a little butternut squash is an idea. But brown sugar, cinnamon, all spice, etc. will cover up any deficiencies, I expect.

    mathling dpawson Tangential anecdote: a friend tells the story of going into a French grocery store with an American colleague. After they’ve been waking around a while, the colleague says something like “it’s weird, they don’t sell any food here, they just sell the things food is made out of.”
