You preheat your oven to 350 degrees. In one bowl beat together <strong>6 tablespoons melted butter<\/strong>, <strong>two eggs<\/strong>, <strong>two tablespoons molasses<\/strong>, <strong>1 1\/4 cups pumpkin puree<\/strong>, and <strong>1\/2 cup orange juice<\/strong>. In a separate bowl, combine <strong>1 cup all-purpose flour<\/strong>, <strong>1\/2 cup whole wheat flour<\/strong>, <strong>1\/2 cup brown sugar<\/strong>, <strong>1\/2 teaspoon salt<\/strong>, <strong>1 teaspoon baking soda<\/strong>, <strong>1\/2 teaspoon baking powder<\/strong>, <strong>1\/2 teaspoon ground cloves<\/strong>, and <strong>1\/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon<\/strong>. Stir the liquid into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in <strong>1\/2 cup walnut pieces<\/strong> and <strong>1\/2 cup dried cranberries<\/strong>. Spoon into a greased muffin tin and bake for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>This week veggies included spinach, collard greens, red leaf lettuce, a fennel bulb and fronds, a bunch of leeks, a bag of bok choy, a butternut squash, five satsuma mandarin oranges, four persimmons, and five pink lady apples. Tonight we&#8217;re working on leftovers from last week&#8217;s cabbage and white bean stew, but tomorrow I&#8217;ll do pork chops alongside creamed spinach with leeks. Saturday, we&#8217;ll have a green salad with sauteed fennel and grilled steak tips, and then Sunday black-eyed peas with bacon and collard greens, and apple-persimmon pie for dessert. Monday, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.farmfreshtoyou.com\/recipes\/squash-0101.shtml\">butternut squash and sage risotto<\/a>; Tuesday, leftovers. Robin and I will have the bok choy at some point for lunch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I finally got around to making pumpkin puree from the pumpkins we got in our box a few weeks ago.
