POPS11 Ways To Use A Pumpkin More in the article . If you've never made a fresh pumpkin pie, you are missing out. And, by the way, most canned pumpkin is made of squashes, rather than actual pumpkin. Pumpkin from scratch is a bit of a pain, one has to puree it or it's a bit stringy, but it keeps well in the freezer, so it is worthwhile. I think so, anyway.

POPSrecipe: pluot-amaretti trifle Mmm... love pluots. From the comments: When fresh fruit choices are more limited in the winter, I make orange/chocolate trifle with devil's food cake, cointreau, marmalade, orange slices and chocolate custard, and topped with cocoa whipped cream...always a big hit!

POPSChocolate 'cuts death rate' in heart attack survivors "However, I do encourage those who are looking for healthier desserts to consider chocolate in small quantities," he said. "For individuals with no weight issues who have been able to eat chocolate in moderation and remain slim, I do not limit it," he added. The researchers caution that clinical trials are needed to back up the findings of their study.

POPSChef's recipe: Summer Pudding
Recipe continues: Toss the firmer berries (such as currants and blueberries) with the sugar and lemon juice, then place in a suitable pan. Bring to a simmer. Add the softer fruit and continue cooking just until the juices start to run (overcooking will spoil the fresh flavours). Remove from the heat and reserve. Line a 1.5-litre glass or china bowl with the bread, overlapping slightly and pressing the edges of the slices together. Pour in the fruit. Cover the top with more bread to completely enclose. Press down using the flat of your hand; juice will start to seep up and through the bread. Place the filled bowl on a large plate. Then place a smaller plate (small enough to allow some downward movement within the bowl) on top. Place a weight of about 3 pounds on top of the small plate and leave in the fridge overnight. The next day there will be a good amount of juice either on the large plate or in the bowl on top of the small plate: Reserve this juice. More below ....

POPSrecipe: home-made It's-Its Meet any Bay Area native, and they'll go glassy-eyed talking about their favorite childhood treat, the It's-It ice cream sandwich. (Those of us from other states don't quite get the hype, but we'll play along.) Yes, well, this Bay Area kid thinks the reason you don't get it is that the quality has gone downhill over the past few decades. (The chocolate coating didn't used to be "waxy", for one thing. Harrumph.) So if your only experience with It's-Its is since, say, 2000, it will of course be somewhat disappointing.

POPSThe $200 White House Vegetable Garden The Obamas are planting a vegetable garden on the White House lawn in an effort to publicize healthy eating. The seeds and mulch will cost $200 and they'll be able to harvest spinach, chard, collards and cilantro, among other things. Do you think this will educate the public about more healthful options or go largely unnoticed?
