Winter squash: I'm mad about winter squash—about pumpkins—and so is my former “Martha Stewart Living” colleague Lucinda Scala Quinn, who you may know as author of the "Mad Hungry" cookbooks, and a former host of the PBS series “Everyday Food,” and of her own “Mad Hungry” TV show. We'll talk pumpkin recipes, including a Libyan spread or dip called chershi. Lucinda Scala Quinn has written five cookbooks with inspirations as diverse as Jamaican to rustic Italian, but whatever the culinary tradition she's writing and cooking in, her approach is always smart can-do meals—ideas developed to feed and please her family of five, including her three mad, hungry sons. I'm so glad to reconnect with her today
