A Halloween Coronation

In a simple yet tasteful coronation ceremony earlier today, Pumpkin was crowned king. In a touching and wisely brief speech, King Pumpkin pledged his desire to carve a role in history as a just and yummy ruler.

If your pumpkin is not royalty, you can use it to make a Persianized pumpkin pie cafe latte, or, a Persian pumpkin Halloween kookoo. Yum!

    Aah at last. Pumpkin=fall/ fall=pumpkin love them both. In soups, pasta, salad, bread, khorosht, sweets, & so on. It is so versatile. For me pumpkin is like tomato in the summer time that can be used in almost everything. Don’t you agree?
