Pumpkins!

[willowisp]

Not home-grown, sadly, but pie pumpkins are finally showing up in stores. The grocery delivery person picked out one very small, one medium, and one large enough that I'm half-wondering if it was a carving pumpkin someone picked up, decided against, and set down in the wrong place. There were no tags on any of them. Anyway, I rendered the large one and got enough pureed pulp for three pies. I plan on making the first of the three this weekend, unless the temptation to take one to a friend's house becomes too high, and freezing the other two.
