Since Oct 31st and Hallowe'en are approaching and bringing with them all the orange pumpkins which symbolize the season I felt it only right that I should let everybody know how pumpkin pies are REALLY made........

Living close to a farm as a child I always used a very large and covertly nicked turnip from the storage sheds to create my night time candle lit horror. Only ever tried pumpkin pie once and didn't like the taste. To me it probably tasted close to the under chair deposits in your pic. My eldest son, then twelve, thought it would be a good experiment on Halloween to use white spirit to set the inside of his creation alight in an attempt to create a flaming skull. Nearly burnt the flaming house down!

PPP - pumpkin pie poo

Here, come this time of year, all the coffee places reintroduce "Pumpkin Spice Latte" which is apparently a BIG seller to those who favour the Latte drinks. BIG BIG BIG drink (yuck) - but then that is me. Eating the mix of spices necessary to make a pumpkin pie is one thing (you can smother them out with whip cream) but to DRINK those same flavours down willingly is another
