   Pumpkin.
   When I was young, my mother always made what we called “The Pumpkin Dish” for Sukkot. It consisted of a large pumpkin filled with rice, vegetables and spices (cheese, too, if we were having a dairy meal)and baked a long time.
   My younger sister, Becca, always hated it, and once my mother prepared the Pumpkin Dish when it was not Sukkot, and Becca cringed: “Don’t you think once a year is enough for that?” (Ironically, Becca is now a yoga teacher and VERY healthy eater who probably loves pumpkin).
   Last Shavuot I fixed the Pumpkin Dish for my kids, and they refused to even taste it, but I loved it.

   Yikes – meant to say last Sukkot, not Shavuot. Sorry about that.
