Since 2001, I designed, produced, managed and contributed to mostly food-related websites and blogs for KQED including: KQED.org; KQED Food; Bay Area Bites; Check, Please! Bay Area; Taste This; Celebrity Chefs; seven of Jacques Pepin's TV series websites; and Joanne Weir's Cooking in the City. I initiated the majority of KQED Food's social media feeds and maintained them up until 2017. As far as content creation, photography is my passion and I also shoot video and write stories. My photos have been used in articles for KQED Food, News, Arts, and Science as well as for promotional purposes in print and online. Professional education and training includes: clinical psychology, photography, commercial cooking, web design, information architecture and UX.",

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>After Thanksgiving dinner is over, it is nice to send guests home with a little treat that’s not leftover turkey or a mason jar of mushroom gravy. Homemade pumpkin caramels make great bite-sized party favors that truly shine with the flavors of fall. They may sound like a lot of work, but these miniature candies are not terribly difficult once you get the hang of boiling sugar. Plus their layers of rich pumpkin and sweet maple flavor means that a little treat goes a long way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89942\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/buttered-pan.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89942\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/buttered-pan.jpg\" alt=\"Line a square baking dish with greased parchment paper for easy caramel removal.

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The first thing to do before even stepping near the stove is to prepare your pan. Once your caramel mixture has reached the optimal temperature, you’ll want to dump it straight into the pan, so you need to be ready. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with two overlapping piece of parchment paper (or aluminum foil). Make sure the paper sticks up over the top of the pan; you’ll use the excess as handles for pulling out the set caramels. Lightly grease the parchment with softened butter for extra non-stick insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89943\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/cream-mixture-in-pot.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89943\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/cream-mixture-in-pot.jpg\" alt=\"A big scoop of pumpkin puree along with homemade pumpkin pie spice gives these caramels a hefty dose of fall flavor.

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Next, prepare the pumpkin mixture. Caramels get their soft texture from a substantial amount of cream and butter. In these caramels, I’ve cut back a bit on the cream and replaced it with canned pumpkin puree. (You can use puree made from fresh pumpkins, but you’ll need to cook it down to evaporate much of its water content.) Along with the cream, butter, and pumpkin, I add fall flavor with a homemade pumpkin spice mix: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, clove, and a hefty pinch of flaked sea salt. Combine all of these ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer to melt the butter. Stir gently to combine the cream and pumpkin. Once the butter is melted, remove the saucepan from the heat and cover it to keep the mixture warm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89941\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/beginning-of-boiling.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89941\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/beginning-of-boiling.jpg\" alt=\"When the sugar mixture first starts to boil, the bubbles will be tiny and wet.

As the mixture continues to cook, the bubbles will increase in size and appear sticky. Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Now it’s sugar time. Traditionally, caramels are made with a mixture of corn syrup and granulated sugar. Here, I’ve replaced the corn syrup with earthy maple syrup, which complements the pumpkin. The biggest trick when melting the sugar is to keep it from crystallizing on the sides of the pot. To help prevent crystals from forming, pour the sugar into a tall mound in the middle of the liquid syrup. As the sugar melts, it will fall into the maple syrup, but once its dissolved, it will cause fewer problems. Heat the sugars over medium high heat and let the mixture come to a boil. Don’t stir yet! If it seems like the sugar needs a little encouragement in order to dissolve, swirl the pot gently to mix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As you cook off the water from the sugars, you’ll notice the bubbles changing. At first they will be small and vigorous; over time, they will grow in width, but will appear stickier. Keep a watchful eye on the pot as the mixture will expand rapidly and may overflow out of the saucepan. Use the tallest pot you’ve got to prevent it. If the mixture still looks like it will boil over, carefully remove the pot from the heat and gently swirl the mixture until the bubbles subside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89940\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/added-pumpkin-end-of-boiling.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89940\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/added-pumpkin-end-of-boiling.jpg\" alt=\"The mixture will have darkened substantially and will become fairly thick when it has reached its optimal temperature.

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>While the sugar mixture is boiling, keep an eye on its temperature. Once it reaches 248 degrees (a digital thermometer is very helpful), reduce the heat to medium low. Very, very carefully pour the cream mixture into the sugar mixture. Use a clean rubber spatula to stir as you pour in the cream. The sugar mixture may sputter and increase in volume; monitor the heat and turn it off if it looks like it will over flow. Continue to stir the caramel mixture as it boils over medium low heat. Once the caramel gets back to 240 degrees, it is done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pour the caramel into the prepared pan and gently tap the pan on the counter to remove any air bubbles. Now it’s waiting time. You’ll need to make sure that the caramels are completely cool before cutting or even touching them. Remember, 240-degree sugar is super hot. I actually prefer to chill the caramels before slicing them, but I let the caramels come to room temperature before placing them in the fridge. (Rapid chilling can lead to crystallization.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once they’re cooled, slice the caramels into small squares, about 1 inch all around, and wrap each in its own piece of parchment paper. You can get fancy and twist the paper together, or you can simply fold the paper around the candy. Either way, you’ve got a tasty treat on your hands, ready for any guests who walk through the door.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89944\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/plated-caramels-1.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89944\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/plated-caramels-1.jpg\" alt=\"Wrap the sliced caramels in their own piece of parchment paper.

Homemade pumpkin caramels make great bite-sized party favors that truly shine with the flavors of fall. They may sound like a lot of work, but these miniature candies are not terribly difficult once you get the hang of boiling sugar. Plus their layers of rich pumpkin and sweet maple flavor means that a little treat goes a long way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89942\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/buttered-pan.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89942\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/buttered-pan.jpg\" alt=\"Line a square baking dish with greased parchment paper for easy caramel removal.

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The first thing to do before even stepping near the stove is to prepare your pan. Once your caramel mixture has reached the optimal temperature, you’ll want to dump it straight into the pan, so you need to be ready. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with two overlapping piece of parchment paper (or aluminum foil). Make sure the paper sticks up over the top of the pan; you’ll use the excess as handles for pulling out the set caramels. Lightly grease the parchment with softened butter for extra non-stick insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89943\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/cream-mixture-in-pot.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89943\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/cream-mixture-in-pot.jpg\" alt=\"A big scoop of pumpkin puree along with homemade pumpkin pie spice gives these caramels a hefty dose of fall flavor.

Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Next, prepare the pumpkin mixture. Caramels get their soft texture from a substantial amount of cream and butter. In these caramels, I’ve cut back a bit on the cream and replaced it with canned pumpkin puree. (You can use puree made from fresh pumpkins, but you’ll need to cook it down to evaporate much of its water content.) Along with the cream, butter, and pumpkin, I add fall flavor with a homemade pumpkin spice mix: cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice, clove, and a hefty pinch of flaked sea salt. Combine all of these ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer to melt the butter. Stir gently to combine the cream and pumpkin. Once the butter is melted, remove the saucepan from the heat and cover it to keep the mixture warm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89941\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/beginning-of-boiling.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89941\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/beginning-of-boiling.jpg\" alt=\"When the sugar mixture first starts to boil, the bubbles will be tiny and wet.

As the mixture continues to cook, the bubbles will increase in size and appear sticky. Photo: Kate Williams\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Now it’s sugar time. Traditionally, caramels are made with a mixture of corn syrup and granulated sugar. Here, I’ve replaced the corn syrup with earthy maple syrup, which complements the pumpkin. The biggest trick when melting the sugar is to keep it from crystallizing on the sides of the pot. To help prevent crystals from forming, pour the sugar into a tall mound in the middle of the liquid syrup. As the sugar melts, it will fall into the maple syrup, but once its dissolved, it will cause fewer problems. Heat the sugars over medium high heat and let the mixture come to a boil. Don’t stir yet! If it seems like the sugar needs a little encouragement in order to dissolve, swirl the pot gently to mix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As you cook off the water from the sugars, you’ll notice the bubbles changing. At first they will be small and vigorous; over time, they will grow in width, but will appear stickier. Keep a watchful eye on the pot as the mixture will expand rapidly and may overflow out of the saucepan. Use the tallest pot you’ve got to prevent it. If the mixture still looks like it will boil over, carefully remove the pot from the heat and gently swirl the mixture until the bubbles subside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89940\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/added-pumpkin-end-of-boiling.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-89940\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/11/added-pumpkin-end-of-boiling.jpg\" alt=\"The mixture will have darkened substantially and will become fairly thick when it has reached its optimal temperature.

Once it reaches 248 degrees (a digital thermometer is very helpful), reduce the heat to medium low. Very, very carefully pour the cream mixture into the sugar mixture. Use a clean rubber spatula to stir as you pour in the cream. The sugar mixture may sputter and increase in volume; monitor the heat and turn it off if it looks like it will over flow. Continue to stir the caramel mixture as it boils over medium low heat. Once the caramel gets back to 240 degrees, it is done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Balancing out all the richness are a tangy cranberry-orange compote and a fresh, seasonal raw shaved root vegetable salad with pistachios.

I live for the classic dishes: turkey, gravy, cranberry sauce, and stuffing/dressing. Without those 4 dishes, it’s simply not Thanksgiving. I tend to make the same dishes year in and year out, but every so often I like to switch it up. I generally opt for the standard \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2013/11/23/thanksgiving-recipe-an-elevated-version-of-classic-sage-and-chestnut-stuffing/\">bread-onion-celery-sage stuffing\u003c/a>, pimped up with some roasted chestnuts and maybe sautéed leeks. But this year, since I decided to \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/11/08/throw-your-turkey-on-the-grill-this-thanksgiving/\">BBQ my turkey\u003c/a>, I thought I’d find a more Southern-style, yet classic stuffing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sweet and salty, this cornbread stuffing is a colorful addition to your Thanksgiving table.

I live for the classic dishes: turkey, gravy, cranberry sauce, and stuffing/dressing. Without those 4 dishes, it’s simply not Thanksgiving.

I generally opt for the standard \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2013/11/23/thanksgiving-recipe-an-elevated-version-of-classic-sage-and-chestnut-stuffing/\">bread-onion-celery-sage stuffing\u003c/a>, pimped up with some roasted chestnuts and maybe sautéed leeks. But this year, since I decided to \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2014/11/08/throw-your-turkey-on-the-grill-this-thanksgiving/\">BBQ my turkey\u003c/a>, I thought I’d find a more Southern-style, yet classic stuffing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sweet and salty, this cornbread stuffing is a colorful addition to your Thanksgiving table.

For some of my family and friends, it makes perfect sense. “Of course you can grill your turkey!” For others, I’ve been met with surprise (“Wow! Wait. What? You grill your turkey?”) to confusion (“I don’t understand this concept of grilling a whole turkey.”). Generally, the folks that understand it live in a more temperate climate, aka California. The Scottish half of the family, not so much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It all started years and years ago when I spent the first of many Thanksgivings with dear friends up in Inverness (California, not Scotland). They had a tiny oven, and one half of the couple – the one who happened to be the cook of the family - was a vegetarian. So me, and my organic, pasture-raised turkey, got the boot. Don’t worry, it was a nice boot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I decided to brine the bird (in a cooler using a wet brine) and throw that sucker on the grill. My bird was on the heftier side, ideal for the large gathering, so we had to make do by wrapping the edges of the Weber grill with aluminum foil to completely enclose it. But what emerged was a mahogany-colored, smoky-flavored, moist and scrumptious fowl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n\u003cul>I learned a lot that Thanksgiving, and continued to perfect my West Coast grilled turkey.\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Here’s what I’ve learned along the way:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Grilling your turkey frees up your oven, and your kitchen, significantly.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>There is very little hand-on work involved, just occasional basting and rotating.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Purchase a smaller turkey; I usually try to get a 12- to 14-pounder.

You’ll have much better flavor and color, and it’s really not hard to deal with. Honestly, I’ve never done this on a gas grill, but I’m sure you can do it; just turn on the left and right burners on to medium and leave the center burner off. If your grill has a way to use wood chips for smoking, I recommend going that route.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>One slight downside is that you don’t really get great drippings to use for gravy with this method, so roast a chicken up to 1 month before Thanksgiving and freeze the drippings from that. Then you have the advantage of making your gravy up to 2 days in advance.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Get off on your bad self: you grilled a freaking turkey!

Every 30 minutes, check the grill temperature (it should be between 275 and 325F); you can regulate it by adding more coals, adding more liquid to the drip pan, or opening or closing the vents. Also, each time you check, baste the turkey with some stock, and rotate the turkey as needed.

Sociologist Joel Best has been investigating allegations of strangers poisoning kids’ Halloween candy for 30 years. As of this \u003ca href=\"http://www.smithsonianmag.com/not-categorized/where-did-the-fear-of-poisoned-halloween-candy-come-from-822302/?no-ist\" target=\"_blank\">2013 Smithsonian article\u003c/a>, “he hasn’t identified a single confirmed example of a stranger murdering a child in this fashion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nevertheless, the annual mass paranoia was possibly fueled by one actual gruesome crime perpetrated in 1974, when 30-year old Ronald O’Bryan, a Texas optician, laced a handful of Pixy Stix with cyanide and handed them out to several children. After his 8-year-old son, Timothy died from ingesting the poisoned candy, an investigation revealed that Mr. O’Bryan was deeply in debt and had just taken out large life insurance policies on his son and daughter. He was found guilty of murder and executed in 1984.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even before this monstrous act, the media ghoulishly stoked the fires of fear with yearly exhortations. In 1970, even the esteemed New York Times, fabricated a haunted house of words, warning: “those Halloween goodies that children collect this weekend...may bring them more horror than happiness. That plump red apple that Junior gets from the kindly old woman down the block may have a razor blade hidden inside. The chocolate “candy” may be a laxative, the bubble gum may be sprinkled with lye, the popcorn balls may be coated with camphor, the candy may turn out to be packets containing sleeping pills.” (As quoted in \u003cem>Death Makes a Holiday: A Cultural History of Halloween\u003c/em>, page 5.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While parents understandably want to protect their young ‘uns from harm, perhaps the ritual spilling of the sugary loot on the living room floor for inspection currently has more to do with mom or dad picking out the best (chocolate?) morsels for themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89206\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/10/appleKQED1000.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/10/appleKQED1000.jpg\" alt=\"Myth: Apples played an innocent role in Halloweens gone-by.

Celebrated from sunset, October 31 to sunset, November 1, it eventually morphed into our American Halloween.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During Samhain, it was believed that ghosts would be released from their graves. The Celtic priests (aka Druids) used various methods of divination to communicate with the spirits and foretell the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the Romans conquered Britain in 43 AD, they brought along some apple trees. The apple was an emblem of Pomona, the Roman goddess of fruit trees and fertility, whose harvest festival was observed on November 1 and eventually the Roman and Celtic traditions intermingled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When an apple is sliced through the middle, its seeds form a 5-pointed star or pentagram, which the Celts also viewed as a symbol of fertility. From this belief, evolved various methods of using apples to determine future marriage prospects. During the annual fall celebrations, young unmarried people would try to bite into \u003ca href=\"http://www.hauntedbay.com/history/bobbing.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">an apple floating in water\u003c/a> or hanging from a string. The first person to bite into the apple would be the next one to marry. Girls could also place the \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_bobbing\" target=\"_blank\">apple they bobbed under their pillows\u003c/a> in hopes of dreaming of their future lover. If a young woman peeled an apple in a long spiral, swung it over her head three times and tossed it over her shoulder, it was believed that the shape it landed in would form the first letter of her future husband’s name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The people of Ireland, Scotland and Wales kept their ancient November eve traditions alive through age-old games and folkways. They used apples or nuts to divine the future...and asked spirits about matters of love. The immigration of Scots and Irish in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries brought the Celtic celebrations to the U.S.\" (From \u003cem>A Halloween How-to,\u003c/em> page 12.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Caramel covered or hard candy apples are still a traditional treat this time of year.

Vegetable carving has been a common practice around the world for many hundreds of years. The Maori carved lanterns from gourds more than 700 years ago. To arrive at modern day grinning pumpkin faces adorning front porches, we have Irish immigrants to thank (again) for bringing over their folktale of \u003ca href=\"http://www.history.com/topics/halloween/jack-olantern-history\" target=\"_blank\">Stingy Jack\u003c/a>, a trickster who made a deal with the Devil. After years outsmarting the Devil, the story goes, old Jack’s body finally succumbed to the ravages of age and he craved eternal rest. Because of his malicious mischief, however, Jack was not allowed into Heaven, so he went down to Hell. Out of revenge for his tricks, the Devil refused him entrance and tossed him an everlasting burning ember to light his endless wandering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As there were no pumpkins in the British Isles, Jack carved a turnip to carry his eternal light. The Irish began to refer to this ghostly figure as “Jack of the Lantern,” and then, simply “Jack O' Lantern.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Ireland and Scotland, people believed that spirits and ghosts could enter their world on Halloween. To avoid being visited by demons they created their own versions of Jack's lantern by carving fearsome faces into turnips or potatoes, lighting them with candles, and placing them in windows or near doors to frighten away Stingy Jack and other wandering evil spirits. In England, large beets were used. (\u003ca href=\"http://www.hauntedbay.com/history/jol.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">from Haunted Bay.com\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrants from these countries brought their jack-o'-lantern tradition with them when they came to the United States. They soon found that pumpkins, a fruit native to America, make perfect jack-o'-lanterns. They were softer and easier to carve than the turnips and potatoes of their homeland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As one of the earliest known food crops in the Americas, pumpkins had actually already saved lives. Indians introduced pumpkins and squashes to the Pilgrims. Pumpkins were an important food source for the Pilgrims, as they stored well, which meant they would have a nutritious food source during the winter months. Without pumpkins many of the early settlers might have died from starvation.

In 1900, the tricornered tidbits became their most popular confection, outselling licorice, peppermints and even chocolate. Originally, the sweets weren’t associated with any specific holiday and were even promoted for Independence Day. After WWII, however, candy corn was advertised as a Halloween candy and by 1951, the Goelitz Company had 12 factories around the country devoted to ‘”cultivating” candy corn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>To dig up more on the history of Halloween here are two excellent books:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/Halloween-How-To-Costumes-Decorations-Destinations/dp/1565547748/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Halloween How-To, A: Costumes, Parties, Decorations, and Destinations\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> by Lesley Bannatyne\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.amazon.com/Death-Makes-Holiday-Cultural-Halloween/dp/158234230X\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cstrong>Death Makes a Holiday: A Cultural History of Halloween\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> by David J.

After his 8-year-old son, Timothy died from ingesting the poisoned candy, an investigation revealed that Mr. O’Bryan was deeply in debt and had just taken out large life insurance policies on his son and daughter. He was found guilty of murder and executed in 1984.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even before this monstrous act, the media ghoulishly stoked the fires of fear with yearly exhortations. In 1970, even the esteemed New York Times, fabricated a haunted house of words, warning: “those Halloween goodies that children collect this weekend...may bring them more horror than happiness. That plump red apple that Junior gets from the kindly old woman down the block may have a razor blade hidden inside. The chocolate “candy” may be a laxative, the bubble gum may be sprinkled with lye, the popcorn balls may be coated with camphor, the candy may turn out to be packets containing sleeping pills.” (As quoted in \u003cem>Death Makes a Holiday: A Cultural History of Halloween\u003c/em>, page 5.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While parents understandably want to protect their young ‘uns from harm, perhaps the ritual spilling of the sugary loot on the living room floor for inspection currently has more to do with mom or dad picking out the best (chocolate?) morsels for themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_89206\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/10/appleKQED1000.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/10/appleKQED1000.jpg\" alt=\"Myth: Apples played an innocent role in Halloweens gone-by.

Celebrated from sunset, October 31 to sunset, November 1, it eventually morphed into our American Halloween.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During Samhain, it was believed that ghosts would be released from their graves. The Celtic priests (aka Druids) used various methods of divination to communicate with the spirits and foretell the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the Romans conquered Britain in 43 AD, they brought along some apple trees. The apple was an emblem of Pomona, the Roman goddess of fruit trees and fertility, whose harvest festival was observed on November 1 and eventually the Roman and Celtic traditions intermingled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When an apple is sliced through the middle, its seeds form a 5-pointed star or pentagram, which the Celts also viewed as a symbol of fertility. From this belief, evolved various methods of using apples to determine future marriage prospects. During the annual fall celebrations, young unmarried people would try to bite into \u003ca href=\"http://www.hauntedbay.com/history/bobbing.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">an apple floating in water\u003c/a> or hanging from a string. The first person to bite into the apple would be the next one to marry. Girls could also place the \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_bobbing\" target=\"_blank\">apple they bobbed under their pillows\u003c/a> in hopes of dreaming of their future lover. If a young woman peeled an apple in a long spiral, swung it over her head three times and tossed it over her shoulder, it was believed that the shape it landed in would form the first letter of her future husband’s name.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The people of Ireland, Scotland and Wales kept their ancient November eve traditions alive through age-old games and folkways. They used apples or nuts to divine the future...and asked spirits about matters of love. The immigration of Scots and Irish in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries brought the Celtic celebrations to the U.S.\" (From \u003cem>A Halloween How-to,\u003c/em> page 12.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Caramel covered or hard candy apples are still a traditional treat this time of year.

Vegetable carving has been a common practice around the world for many hundreds of years. The Maori carved lanterns from gourds more than 700 years ago. To arrive at modern day grinning pumpkin faces adorning front porches, we have Irish immigrants to thank (again) for bringing over their folktale of \u003ca href=\"http://www.history.com/topics/halloween/jack-olantern-history\" target=\"_blank\">Stingy Jack\u003c/a>, a trickster who made a deal with the Devil. After years outsmarting the Devil, the story goes, old Jack’s body finally succumbed to the ravages of age and he craved eternal rest. Because of his malicious mischief, however, Jack was not allowed into Heaven, so he went down to Hell. Out of revenge for his tricks, the Devil refused him entrance and tossed him an everlasting burning ember to light his endless wandering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As there were no pumpkins in the British Isles, Jack carved a turnip to carry his eternal light. The Irish began to refer to this ghostly figure as “Jack of the Lantern,” and then, simply “Jack O' Lantern.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Ireland and Scotland, people believed that spirits and ghosts could enter their world on Halloween. To avoid being visited by demons they created their own versions of Jack's lantern by carving fearsome faces into turnips or potatoes, lighting them with candles, and placing them in windows or near doors to frighten away Stingy Jack and other wandering evil spirits. In England, large beets were used. (\u003ca href=\"http://www.hauntedbay.com/history/jol.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">from Haunted Bay.com\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrants from these countries brought their jack-o'-lantern tradition with them when they came to the United States. They soon found that pumpkins, a fruit native to America, make perfect jack-o'-lanterns. They were softer and easier to carve than the turnips and potatoes of their homeland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As one of the earliest known food crops in the Americas, pumpkins had actually already saved lives. Indians introduced pumpkins and squashes to the Pilgrims. Pumpkins were an important food source for the Pilgrims, as they stored well, which meant they would have a nutritious food source during the winter months. Without pumpkins many of the early settlers might have died from starvation.
