since i turned the ripe old age of 57,(!!) on july 20th, i thought i would throw caution to the wind and bake a pie!
my long time doll of a friend~ KATE MCCONN & i have a victory garden in her backyard. along with all our produce we are now on our 4th pumpkin!, (number 5 is still on the vine) this inspired me to bake a pumpkin pie.. after my sweet, but flaky friend IRIS PARKER flaked out on me i was forced to bake all on my lonesome. i ended up making 2 pumpkin pies & 1 pumpkin tarte.
i aslo rosted some pumpkin seeds, grilled some pumpkin skins and make a small batch of pumpkin soup.
still to come~ pumpkin marmalade and pumpkin syrup.
@ five o'clock on the dot my birthday pumpkin tea part began.
