Ok, ok. I promise that when fallslashwinter is over, pumpkin will disappear from this blog. Until then, please indulge.

Pumpkin gnocchi with pumpkin sauce. Loved the sauce, but I need to work on the gnocchi texture, probably because I used whole wheat flour. Any tips for perfecting gnocchi?

This week has been busy with meetings, the obesity project, nutrition counseling, writing material for my next nutrition class, and discussions about protein powder/supplements and athletic performance (anyone have good resources on this? email me: healthnut.em@gmail.com).

{ok, really?!!} I’m definitely more comfortable recommending something vegetable-based, but I’d love any feedback from those of you who use protein powder regularly.

My to-do list looks crazy. Seriously. There is a method to this madness, though…promise. [p.s. I am slightly obsessed with highlighters].

Also, a shoutout to my friend Emily Benson, who interviewed me on her blog, Embracing Liberties. Check out her blog for some pretty entertaining posts and a definitively awesome writing style. Welcome to any new readers!

Also, there will be commentary related to the result of Mark Haub’s research forthcoming. I may have a few things to say…

p.s. it is super nice today, and I just want to be outside!
