  • You'll love it!!!! Also, sweet potatoes work too if squash doesn't, but I bet squash will work just fine. You'll have to let us know what you think of it!
  • I might attempt it myself in the week ive got it into my head now.it will be no way near as good as hers, its been ages since i baked anything and i heard its quiet therapeutic. Pics to follow..
  • They also have pre-made pumpkin pies in the freezer section (at least here). I hope you love it! Gotta put whipped cream on top!
  • Definatly dont sell it ready made here. Be so much easier! My step mum seems to think she has seen tinned pumpkin sold in the supermarkets which would work perfect. So i will go on a hunt for the ingrediants and get to work.

    Here's my confession: I'm off work and I think I'm going to sit on the couch and binge watch the new season of Orange is the New Black in my underwear. #lifegoals

    I'm a few days late for this initial post but I started yesterday and finished this morning.

    Prepare to cliffhang.

    Go in September/October. It will be worth it.
  • You stereotypical white girls, you. (It's ok. I can say that. I'm white, too.)

    But I'm a terrible American. And white girl. My UO and/or FFFC: I hate all things pumpkin.
  • @mtownhespes

    1. I am a black girl, and love me some pumpkin EVERYTHING. I try to keep it special for autumn though and try not to eat pumpkin items any other time. Yes, I am aware you were joking. LOL I am not though. Love me some pumpkin.

    2. We cannot seem to agree on a damn thing. I find this hilarious.


    Haha love it. Unless "pumpkin" is "it"...then hate it. :)

    We agreed on like one thing. There's still hope.

    For the pumpkin lovers, has anyone mentioned that Costco sells pumpkin tortilla chips? As of last week.

  • I was gonna post my FFFC about how I love to drop my kids off at daycare in my pjs then go home to shower/get ready for work...

    But now I want pumpkin pie
  • I'm full of stuff these last few days.

    FF(M)C: I got a curt email from the management office about a package (they don't accept packages). I fully intend on telling them about themselves when I pick it up this afternoon (like I deliver packages).
  • I hate talking on the phone....just do!  I have a friend that will call me to tell me every tiny thing...drives me crazy.  I don't pick it up and let it go to voicemail or if I don't answer she will text me.  Why not text in the first place when it's just something quick? I avoid making phone calls all the time.  Not sure what my problem is but I just don't like it.

    I also dislike group texts. Getting 1000 alerts on my phone from people having their own mini conversations.

  • @ToneGirl I'm with you...I hate phone conversations....avoid them at all costs.  For the longest time, I didn't even have my voicemail set up.  It drove my mother crazy....but I never listen to them now.  If someone really needs to get ahold of me, they know to text or email me and I will get with them ASAP.

    What is pumpkin pie sounds abit yuck lol is it a dessert? i always thought pumpkin was a veg.

    Where are you from? It's an American staple for Thanksgiving--but it's odd that I'm eating it in June instead of November. It's sweet and delicious. Pie crust with pumpkin filling. Hard to explain if you've never had it. I highly recommend it!
    Blech. I can't get down with pumpkin pie. Why sweeten a vegetable that wasn't mean to be sweet! Sweet potato pie is where it's at...but that's the southern girl in me.

  • @cristinapage72, I do!  I am just not good at listening to them.  I work 2 jobs and am in school for my doctorate along with being a wife and a mom....I am not easy to get ahold of during the week and I have a hard time devoting time to actually listening to them when it is easier for me to just get back in touch with the person.
  • Oh, I can totally relate! Just wanted to share that it's easy to take things for granted sometimes. :-)
  • Yes it certainly is!  I definitely try not to do that!  :-)

    I'm from the UK...i made pumpkin pie once and think I got it wrong as it wasn't great. ...im never eating it in the states tho...call it self preservation...I discovered clam Chowder on honeymoon and managed to gain 10 lb in 2 weeks.... I'll avoid pumpkin pie just in case! Lol....

    I've heard of sweet potato pie, but never tried it. As a northern girl, you don't find it up here. You don't happen to have a recipe that you would recommend? Do you?
  • I wish I could eat all things pumpkin! For some reason pumpkin gives me insane heartburn and acid reflux, and that was before getting pregnant!! ;))

  • Only pumpkin things I like are pumpkin spice candles and IHOP pumpkin pancakes. I don't like pie, in general.
