I like my mother's sweet preparations specially,the halwa
versions..She grows the pumpkin creeper in back yards..The creeper spreads like
crazy all over the place,covers the walls , little plants and just finally in a
week time,it enters the home too..Then i or someone has to tell her,it has to be
cropped ,before she gets covered.... :) Nothing as such,whenever the creepers are removed,we get huge number of pumpkins..Then she cultivates again in the same
soil after a few months of break...Recently,she brought dum root halwa to my
home which reminds me of this version...Though,we cannot call it dum root,but it is
definitely quick and easy version of halwa...Sure,its taste too good..
