Onion upside-down pie

We make this pie whenever we have an abundance of onions (like now).  Any kind of onions work well.  The original recipe comes from Nigella Lawson's How to be a Domestic Goddess, but in this case we found the recipe on Giulia Geranium's blog.

Pumpkin and Parmesan Soup

The cayenne pepper gives this soup some character.  Add some cooked pasta to your bowl to make a meal of it.  This recipe is adapted from Very Fond of Food: A Year in Recipes by Sophie Dahl.
