This year was Butternut squash pies.
I actually like those better than pumpkin!

Pumpkin is the poor man’s butternut squash

American pumpkins are disgusting. Squash is superior (Aldis 99 cent/lb!!)
Chinese pumpkins are much tastier (tastes like squash but juicer)
I realize this is flame free, but if I see any more malice toward the noble pumpkin I will channel the spirit of Lyle Alzado and commit violence so unfathomable that they name a law after me.
Edit: wait, this isn’t flame free at all!

I still love the great pumpkin, but next year instead of turning my yard into giant tumult of pumpkin vines, I may sneak a few batches of butternut in there too.
The small pumpkins are the best for cooking with. All the flavor of a big one, packed into ⅛ the size.

It’s endemic of the times -anything previously noble must be notched down.
The good old days… In this era, Alzado would’ve been in jail somewhere, looong before he got a chance to terrorize lesser beings on the gridiron.

Part of my food prep for the week:
Grass feed beef and ground pork with onions, peppers and fresh garlic. Salad with traditional slaw and watercress greens. Will be topped with olive oil and red wine vinegar (best salad dressing in my mind).

Pot roast for discord friends.
None of them have tasted my cooking but the host trusted me enough to spend nearly $40 on a piece of grass fed beef chuck for me to cook.
Also cinnamon sugar shortbread cookies
