Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

This is the recipe I have been looking for!! This is the Orange Bread my mother made when I was a child!! My only variations were to use half whole wheat pastry flour and add a couple tablespoons of orange juice concentrate. I doubled the batch and made 4 mini loaves. I am presently making my third batch and will finish the nice oranges I have by making a fourth. THANK YOU for this recipe!!
