I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving which is next Thursday.
We're hosting 6 other family members, so we'll have at least 9 people at the house (6 adults and 3 kids).
Traditionally you eat a big turkey dinner, but since Thursday and Friday my wife is usually tired from chemo it's going to be more of a chili pot-luck, but there will definitely be plenty of food and Pumpkin Pie!
You do what you can. Chili pot-luck sounds pretty good to me, and I hope you have a wonderful holiday!
Thanks, same to you!
I made a "tester" pumpkin pie tonight and it's killer. For Thanksgiving day we ordered one from a really good local bakery, and I'm hoping to beat it in my own unofficial pie contest.
I've never eaten a pumpkin pie in my entire life. What's your recipe?
I'm glad you asked! I actually put the recipe together in Mealie which I host on my server.

Thanks! What kind of crust is this?
And is the pumpkin purรฉe simply mashed pumpkin?
The recipe doesn't specify a crust, so it's just whatever you want to use. You can make your own, or use a store bought. Do they sell frozen crusts in your country?
Pumpkin Puree, at least in the USA, is the only form of canned pumpkin that I know of. This is a popular brand - https://shop.caraluzzis.com/s/1000-2073/i/INV-1000-20608. It's sort of an apple sauce consistency, but thicker. You can buy pumpkin with the spices already added, but I prefer to add my own.
I'm sure there's a way to use a real pumpkin, but I've never tried it.
I'll have to check ,but in Europe, I've never seen canned pumpkin purรฉe
Good luck! You can certainly do it. I always look forward to my wife's pumpkin pie. She goes strong on the spices. I make real whipped cream just before we eat pie and go gentle with the sugar so the creaminess and subtle sweetness blends well with the pie filling. My mouth is watering as I type this.
