My new fave ingredient though is pomegranate molasses - have you tried it (most Middle Eastern and continental delicatessen's sell it here in Australia.) It's amazing stuff, so many uses but it turns pork or beef spare ribs into a divine experience.... :) Ahh pomegranates bring back so many happy memories of childhood!

My first time opening up a pomegranate was quite messy--it ended up looking like a pomegranate crime scene in my kitchen! Love that Thanksgiving salad!

They are only in the stores until the end of December, so enjoy them now! A friend told me that they freeze well, after you have seeded them---so I am going to try that this year---so I can enjoy them in July!!! I love pomegranates, as well!

Great addition to a salad. I'm kind of a pom snob and only buy the "Pom" brand, but as soon as the good ones come in our local HyVee, I order a case. It's usually the end of October. They will keep well refrigerated, but they don't usually last long around our house. Did you know all pomegranates have exactly 840 arils (seeds) no matter what the size? So the bigger the pom, the bigger the arils and Pom tends to have the larger fruit and brighter red arils (no, I don't work for them). And it's hard to beat a pomegranate martini!

For me roasted soups taste like fall and turkey tastes like thanksgiving. :-) My weekend is not all that exciting. I have to go to a celebration for work tomorrow night in Boston and then after church Sunday I have a parade down town :-) I love food that tastes like seasons.
