Would You Like Some Pumpkin Leaves?

This past weekend, we were privileged to be co-guests at Ed & Cyndi's house with a family from Malawi.

During conversation one day, it came up that in Malawi, they not only eat the pumpkins but they also eat the pumpkin leaves. Though Paul promptly ate a leaf raw, Bridget and others gathered up a few leaves and headed to the kitchen to cook them up Malawian style. Here, Bridget and Nadia add a few tomatoes to the pot:
And everyone agreed. Mmmmm . . . . good!
