This year has probably been the strangest and seems to be coming to a close quicker than usual. Another month is over and we're heading towards the end of the year, while a new season well and truly sets in. Have your views changed in all that has been happening? Do you think that your priorities will be different moving forward?

Things happening in the community.

Some highlights of the week

If the power goes out, [how many old skills do you have to manage long term?](https://hive.blog/disaster/@jacobtothe/is-it-time-to-re-learn-old-skills) @jacobtothe is wondering if it's important to relearn some old skills and what kind of skills would be important. [

Cooking from scratch can be a long winded, especially if you want a healthy meal. So sometimes a shortcut can make things a little easier. @homesteadhippy shares a [tasty ravioli recipe](https://hive.blog/homesteading/@homesteadhippy/pumpkinravioliwithbrownbuttersagesauce-4f1kttnyz9) replacing the pasta layer with won ton wrappers.

However, if you're someone who very much enjoys the process of cooking and decorating food, then @sreypov's fun [pumpkin dessert should delight you.](https://hive.blog/hive-120078/@sreypov/pumpkins-made-from-pumpkins-a-khmer-ital-tapioca-dessert) [
