The vendors at the farmers' market where I loaded up on adorable Jack-be-Little pumpkins were amazed when I told them my plans: decorate from Halloween to Thanksgiving, then eat the nectarine-sized pumpkins. "You can eat these?" they asked. Can and should. They have an earthy, savory goodness appreciated by those who love mushrooms and artichokes. If that's not you or you don't have any tiny pumpkins, use an acorn squash or half a pie pumpkin. See notes below for making the switch.

Such a bargain, too! You'll get six weeks of decoration followed by a fine-dining appetizer or side dish for about $1.50 per person.

Savor a warm spoonful of Pumpkin Butterscotch Pudding and get ready to be thankful. How can anything be so fragrant, creamy, and rich while being downright healthy, thrifty, and easy?

My notes say Pumpkin Butterscotch Pudding is "superb+" warm. But the delightful fragrance and taste fades as it chills. It's good at room temperature, OK straight from the fridge, and bland made into ice cream. Lesson? Get it while it's hot.
