I was six. I thought it was for a party. I am Mrs. Doris, a retired school lunch lady from southern Ohio, and these are fifteen pumpkin suppers with three things apiece: fried pumpkin and onions, soup beans with a ham hock, pumpkin cornbread with no sugar, pork chops on a bed of pumpkin, sausage and sage on hog-killing weekend, pumpkin rings dried on a broom handle, macaroni and cheese gone orange, pumpkin fritters, pumpkin chili in a vacuum bottle, and one little pie pumpkin that feeds me for a whole week. #pumpkinrecipes #nostalgia #lunchlady
