Ginger Snaps
Oh yeah! These are the bomb. Little flavor explosions covered in sugar. What’s not to like?

Spaghetti Squash Casserole
Another warm dish with a surprising depth. Usually spaghetti squash is rather flavorless, but not in this dish. Here it is good to the last bite.

Pumpkin Pie
Every cookbook needs a simple pumpkin pie recipe, so here it is. This one came straight out of The Encyclopedia of Creative Cooking. which I inherited from my Mother. Published in 1985 and 800 pages thick, it weighs about 6 pounds! Though I’ll never throw it away, a tablet is a little lighter.
The picture above is what I get when I’m not even trying. Deeeeeelicious!

Dundee Cake
I’ve been making this for about 40 years now, mailing it out, and calling it my “yearly lump”. I started adding cherries a few decades ago… no complaints.
It is the only “fruit cake” that I really like, living half way between fruit cake and Stollen – the heavy bread we would slather with butter Christmas morning for breakfast.
