it was inevitable....my mother is a cook ( i would say chef ) and i've always loved what she served us and she has always taken great care in providing us with healthy & delicious meals. i was inspired to do the same for my family & i hope my daughters do the same for theirs. i feel bad when i hear about young ladies getting married & not knowing how to cook anything but boxed mac & cheese. actually, last week was the first time that i made baked ziti & i've been married almost 10 years. i know some people make it once a week (which is fine if that's what they want to keep doing, but for those who are looking for a change, I thought I'd give some inspiration). and so, i have started a food blog to help get some creative juices flowing.

1 can (16 oz.) pumpkin
1 can (12 oz.) evaporated milk

cloves, nutmeg, and ginger)
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Topping
1/4 cup brown sugar

baking powder, and salt. Mix until smooth. Pour into greased 9-inch pie plate.
Combine brown sugar and oats, and cut in butter. Sprinkle over pie
filling.
Bake 50-55 minutes or until knife inserted into center comes out clean.
