Mum’s Baking Pumpkin pie. Light crisp pastry Silky smooth topping Adorned with pastry leaves Topped with swirls of white whipped cream. I start drooling; it’s so tempting Our spoons are poised ready to tuck in Oh how I adore autumn harvest time! For love of October Contest Sponsor – Andrea Dietrich 09~23~15

OK Jan, its time you try it. Make one but use a graham cracker crust. Use canned pumpkin (if you have access to Libby's brand it has a good recipe on the can). I prefer pumpkin pie, but where I live, you can use the same basic recipe to make sweet potato pie. Don't forget lots of whipped cream. I have such a craving now. Great poem!
