Pig Eating Pumpkins!!!

Did you see the news??? Apparently there's a new variety of pumpkin that was crossed with a Venus Fly Trap plant and it likes pork!!!
 I can't help but think if Earl lost a few pounds he might run a little faster... I'm just sayin'...
 Don't worry, I saved his, um... bacon, and then got out my pie plate:@)

My son grew pumpkins this year and this one is from his garden.
He asked me to roast it and make pie, thought I'd have a little fun first... 
Stay tuned for a new pie.

Have a happy day!

  7. So cute, Lynn! My mother-in-law used to buy pumpkins and roast the "meat," then freeze it for pies. It was good! She also made sweet potato pie, which I have done as well. When I made sweet potato pie I used the same pumpkin pie recipe and just subbed the sweet potatoes. Enjoy your pie, Lynn!

  11. Oh no! Poor Earl! Great pumpkin!! I would love to have a backyard full this time of year~ does it make a lot of difference in the taste of your pie, because it sure is a lot of trouble to use fresh pumpkin...? Looking forward to the pie~
