3. The herbs

It's more of a savory dessert as opposed to a sweet one. The herbs highlight that quality, I think. The Landlady used a judicial amount of parsley, rosemary and thyme.

If you try it, be sure to use a "cooking" or a "sugar" pumpkin rather than the decorative ones although you can use any pumpkin. You don't need a big pumpkin, in fact, ours was Farr too large and we ended up making two pies and two loafs of pumpkin bread.

It was fun to try something new (but old!) and different. We're freezing one pie for Thanksgiving.
