Tom will be in tonight from Texas for my niece’s wedding and I had two pie pumpkins. I had originally meant to can the pumpkin but then I found out that you aren't supposed to can it unless in chunks or freezing it so I decided to just go ahead and bake the pies instead.
I started out making just a deep dish pumpkin pie but I had more filling that would fit in one pie crust so I put the rest in the second crust and then mixed up a chess pie and put that over the top. We'll see how it tastes later when the pies cool.
This was my first attempt at making pie from pumpkins (instead of out of a can) so I'm anxious to see how good it is. The filling tasted like pumpkin pie before I baked it! LOL.
We also have a freeze warning tonight so Bill went out and picked the last of the tomatoes. These have been on there for a while and they only ripen a few at a time so I've not been able to do much but eat them. Hopefully, they will all ripen now and I can some of them.
So Bill pulled up the garden and put it in the compost pile. The ground is really soft right now because of the rain we had the last few days so this was a good time to do it. I guess we are ready for fall!
