Looking for new ideas for cooking pumpkin? I first made this soup in 2007. My boyfriend, Brian, liked this so much he ate three bowls of it while standing in front of the stove. Why would I then wait so long before posting? Because my photos made it look like unappetizing baby food with the consistency of applesauce. But! It tasted great. And now I have a better photo so I can share this recipe with you.

Trying to get a move on with trying new dishes. I've been falling back on cooking familiar dishes but have still made a reasonable dent in my goal to try 50 new receipes. Any nominations for yummy and/or easy recipes to help nudge me along are welcomed.

I made this couscous dish up! That surprised me. And Brian really likes it. The first time I made it, he was disappointed that there wasn't enough for seconds. The seasoned shrimp mixes well with the crunch of the pine nuts. The cranberries add a bit of sweetness. Part of me wants to add a vegetable to the mix but I can't decide what to use. Peas? Diced carrots? Spinach? I just don't know. But I hope you enjoy this recipe. It tastes great and doesn't require much effort.

When I'm in a hurry for something to eat, I like to eat this shrimp and couscous. Only takes 15 minutes to prepare and pretty filling.
