    I do like pie. And I like pumpkin. But I don’t like pumpkin pie. Go figure. This year we are making a Hawaiian Pumpkin Crunch Cake instead, which we will bring over to my husband’s aunt’s house. We did a trial run of it last month and it turned out great. My daughter said it was the best dessert she’d ever had. Even better than carrot cake. 🙂

    I do like pie but pumpkin is a take or leave for me. Pecan, peach, or blueberry is are the ones that make me go YUM.

    Another rhubarb lover! How exciting! I discovered strawberry rhubarb pie after moving to Texas but I still think the tartness of ‘just rhubarb’ is the best. The toughest thing is it’s hard to find here, since our summers are so long. That is one of the reasons I go home to South Dakota in the summer…just so I can bring some back.

    This year I have a huge group coming so I’m not sure what new recipes I’ll be able to try… but a guest is bringing a rolled nut cake with chocolate so that may be our ‘outlier’ from the normal ham, turkey, stuffing (both bread and cornbread), mincemeat & pumpkin & pecan pies, cranberry relish and jellied cranberries, broccoli-rice casserole…and on…and on…and on.

    Have a wonderful holiday!

      Isn’t rhubarb just the best? I enjoy the strawberry addition, but I am in full agreement that the tartness on its own is by far more delicious. I had it growing up in New Hampshire— sadly it’s been quite a long time since I’ve moved and no longer have it growing in the backyard.
      Sounds like you’re going to have a bustling holiday! Enjoy!

    Pie is my favorite! If I could have birthday PIE, I would! I have a recipe for a Rhubarb Custard pie somewhere. OMG it’s the best. My grandma used to have rhubarb in her yard and we’d have rhubarb pie. She was an awesome baker – no recipes – all by feel. God I miss her so much 🙁 I do love pumpkin for Thanksgiving though and plan to have a big piece 😀
