Pumpkin Pie time!?

I love Pumpkin Pie! It is my husbands all time favorite pie! I made this pie and it was gone in one day. My husband and 4 yr. old fought over the last slice. I had to actually split it down the middle. HAHA.

I am going to have to make another one. I made Apple Pie too. That is Baileys and my favorite. It was terrific too.

I must admit, fall is my favorite. I LOVE Pumpkins!!! I love Halloween!! I love falling colorful leaves!! (I don't see that much living in FL and it truly bothers me!) and most of all I love Apple Cider and Caramel Apples.....TIS THE SEASON!




The BEST Pumpkin Pie

adapted from a recipe found on allrecipes.com

2 Egg yolks
1/4 cp. brown sugar

2. Poor into the pie crust.

  9. I love pumpkin pie too! Its quick and easy, and so comforting! I also use to make a type of breakfast dish, that was the pumpkin puree in a can and i think like 4-6 eggs, no crust or sugar, and the spice. It is a good diet dessert.

  26. I love this time of year, when summer slowly fades away and the air gets colder, when the leaves start to turn but the sun still shines.

    Come Halloween, I'm often left with a suitably disfigured pumpkin, which normally ends it's days as a fiery soup, shot through with way too much chilli. I've never tried a pie, and I must admit to being a bit wary of it...pumpkin is a vegetable, but the pie is sweet? It doesn't add up!

    I like to think of myself as a food adventurer, never the less (the late Keith Floyd had a wonderful term for enthusiastic cooks - 'gastronauts'), so this year, there will be pumpkin pie, and my kids will indeed fight over it.
