Even though it is still broiling in the lower 90's down here each day it's also still October. You know, the fall? So now that Wal-Mart has finally dropped the price on pumpkins, as they always do in the last week of this month, I have begun to prepare my ever popular homemade pies. It is a sure sign that Autumn has arrived and one that I hope will give Mother Nature a clue to turn down the thermostat here in the Florida jungle. I've even promised her a whole pie if she'd just cool things down a little. The mid-80's would feel oh so refreshing!
About ready to emerge into the world
Get the knife!

It's criminal that pumpkin pie isn't served year-round.
It's usually hard to find any fresh pumpkins much after Halloween, so I stockpile now if I want to have any on hand for making pies at Thanksgiving. The canned stuffed is totally out of the question!
