Pumpkin flower cake
Pumpkin flowers are a delicacy that our local rural people like very much. Whether it is made into soup or fried into cakes, adults and children like it very much. I remember when I was a child, when I saw the pumpkin blooming, I would bother my grandma to give it to me to eat pancakes. My grandma would always happily agree, and then fried it and watched us eat happily, but she was unwilling to take a bite. Now my little sunshine also falls in love with this delicious food made with flowers. Every time I take him to the market, whenever I see pumpkin flowers, I will argue for me to buy pancakes for him to eat. Time seemed to have returned to the past, but the roles had been reversed. At this time, I could also understand my grandmother's happiness when she could cook delicious food for her children.
